Self-employed and running his own studio Sam James Designed, Sam James is influenced by cabinet makers and designers of the past 100 years, whose hand crafted and traditional techniques have transcended both time and fashion. Citing James Krenov, George Nakashima and Sam Maloof, while locally, John Shaw and David Haig; his work displays qualities associated with keen craftsmanship.

Made from solid timber including American ash and Zebra wood, his hall table 'Untitled' has a light quality to it, that we often associate with some of the finest Japanese design. The central drawer appears to float mid air, whilst the silhouette is kept delicate and fine.
