  • Rob Fairhurst Managing Director
  • Sara Brown Interior Designer & Design Manager
  • Laura Spilsbury Senior Designer

Starting the company in 1988 as solely an upholstery workshop, the business quickly developed into a full interior design studio, employing designers to create whole spaces and not just individual pieces. With the know-how of creating these bespoke pieces it helped to elevate the full design schemes for our clients.

Rob now works both as a client face on the design side as well as using his skills in the workshop.

After graduating from her BA hons in interior architecture and spatial design in 2003, Sara begun her career working for well-known interior design firms across luxury residential and hospitality sectors.
Since joining TUW 7 years ago, Sara has worked closely alongside Rob to grow the business further.

Alongside managing and developing the studio, Sara balances her creative need and has acted as Project Lead on numerous schemes and always keeps up to date with all new products on the market.

During her time studying a BA hons Furniture and Product design degree, she completed a “year in industry” working for an interior design firm specialising in high end residential and hospitality sectors. It was there she found her love of all things design and bringing a whole space together with bespoke elements as well as mixing fabrics, finishes and sourced furniture and lighting.

Since joining in 2010 as a mid-weight designer she has progressed to be the senior designer of the team, leading the design team on numerous projects from luxury residential, retail and hospitality.
