Alice Blogg's contemporary designs are inspired by spaces and places. She creates and collaborates with craftspeople to produce furniture, interiors, and bespoke projects in Dorset, the UK and around the world. She started to undertake commissions in 2010 and soon after opened her studio establishing her business in West Dorset, providing employment, working with a community to create the products of her imagination clients will live with for a lifetime.

As a skilled maker, Alice is widely respected in her field and is one of the country’s foremost female designers in wood. Her work has been featured in Elle Decoration, Modern Rustic, Homes & Antiques, and collaborators include the Architectural Association, Landmark Trust, Benchmark Furniture, Heritage Lottery Fund, Common Ground, Hole & Corner, British Council.

Alice's ideas, married with locally-sourced materials, result in designs with real integrity and reflects her deeply felt design and craft ethic. Working with the customer, concepts develop through a design process that is sensitive to the clients' vision whilst incorporating Alice’s unique aesthetic. She has an infectious passion for the provenance and natural beauty of wood, with many commissions starting with a living tree.

The design studio, workshop and timber barn are nestled in a luscious area looking out to Eggardon Hill across the rolling West Dorset countryside. Knowing the origin of the timber, bringing out its beauty, letting the timber sing – this intimate understanding of the material, often found literally at her feet, is Alice’s life.
