The Maker Directory

Coming soon: a considered directory of the people who turn good materials and good ideas into rooms worth remembering.

A resource in the making

Not an endless list. A trusted starting point.

We are building a directory for designers and clients looking for skilled hands: workrooms, upholsterers, wallpaper installers, decorative painters, lampshade makers, framers, embroiderers, restorers and other specialists whose craft deserves to be easier to find.

Craft first

We are interested in specialists with a clear point of view, strong workmanship and respect for material.

Useful to the trade

The directory is being designed around the questions designers actually ask: who can make this, install this, repair this or bring this idea to life?

Human, not algorithmic

Listings will be reviewed. The goal is a useful network with context, not another crowded marketplace.

Applications are open

Would you like to be considered?

If you are a maker, workroom, installer, craftsperson or specialist serving the interiors community, introduce yourself. Tell us where you work, what you make, the projects you love, and where we can see examples of your work.
