Designing

Salvage gallery

The Website is not available on a mobile device as yet

We think its important to let our clients know that this website is not a selling website. We have a small studio /workshop that is not accessible for sales, so we use this website to give people a flavour of what we are about as creative people and also to let people know where we will be selling our pieces over the year.

Over the years we have always collected and saved a wide variety of materials from a wide variety of sources. This has sometimes been because we just love the article or piece for it's own sake but more often it has been because we see the potential to develop the material or artefact into another piece of design or fine art. This process is something that we both find inspirational and one that has stimulated our creative work for many years

Materials

Almost anything goes when it comes to selection of materials. From combing the beaches of the Wirral to searching around demolition yards to simply taking other people 'rubbish' and looking through it before it goes to the tip ! ' With their blessing we hasten to add !'

Often materials will stayed stored in the studio or in the cellar for months, even years before we get to use them or remember their

existence and how they can come together for a particular piece

Altrincham market

An incredible retail development driven by the market and market hall developments. If anyone wants to see how a development in one area of a town can influence the surrounding area in a positive way then they need to look at the way the Market development has transformed the Altrincham area, and is still doing so after seven years when the market really opened .

It's a friendly market that has gone

back to the essential feel of what

markets used to be like
