Britchie

Originally from the UK, Britchie is a seasoned designer and master craftsman with an extensive arts education including a Degree in Industrial Design and a Masters Degree from the Royal College of Art in London. His career spans a diversity of creative disciplines, starting out as a modelmaker for the late Sir Terence Conran’s Habitat/Heals/Mothercare empire and working for several top London agencies before transitioning to digital design with a role in software development for IBM. On immigrating to Canada, Britchie worked as a graphic artist for local movie and TV show productions and then moved into web design and marketing, running his own practice for over a decade. During this time he rekindled his passion for working with wood, converting a small studio space into a fully equipped workshop and channeling his energy into a business he continues to build through ongoing sales and private commissions.
