General information

So many everyday items are discarded and thrown away without a second thought. My passion is to breathe new life in to tired and worn out objects that are destined for land fill. From a washing machine drum to a car suspension spring, from a small baked bean tin to a set of old step ladders, they all play a key role in my philosophy and creations.

My designs are as varied as the materials I use. As a qualified engineer I delight in inventing and constructing objects of both aesthetic and practical worth. With the artistic input from my wife, together we develop a range of sculptures beyond description! My recent enthusiasm has revolved around the adaptability of the humble wooden pallet. Often found broken and neglected they are unquestionably one of the most versatile items I have worked with. The finished objects that have evolved seem to have sparked great interest and fascination. The Rocking Chair Family (each chair is made from a single pallet) has generated a lot of interest and plenty of smiles. Although the chairs are designed for true comfort they slightly play with your mind! Enjoy!!

enRoot is always open for a chat and for a chance to throw some ideas around. I am happy to take on board particular requirements or to make my own design and functionality suggestions. Commissions are always welcome.

My name is Rich, I am based in North Yorkshire and would love to hear from you.
