Books made slowly by hand

Sketchbooks, notebooks and bespoke books made with handmade, watercolour and pattern papers, leather, vellum and linen; celebrating considered design and sustainable, natural materials.

  • Welcome to the bookbinding studio

    Working from my studio in West Somerset, I make books by hand using traditional techniques and archival materials, with a contemporary feel.

    MY STORY 
  • Hand bound sketchbooks and notebooks

    Hand crafted in small batches, these books make excellent travel journals, memory books and guest books as well as sketch/note books, and are perfect for special projects of all kinds.

    BOOK SHOP 
  • Workshops

    Workshops take place at art centres and book festivals in Devon, Cornwall and Somerset. Each workshop focuses on a particular book structure, with lots of expert tips shared along the way.
