Yoxford Creatives "PAST AND PRESENT"

Amanda, since moving from Hackney 2008, lived in Yoxford with her family until 2018.
With her partner Chris, opened The Design Shop in 2011 - in Yoxford High Street. Transforming and totally renovating the space upstairs and down ..and installing exhibitions and evolving design concepts. The couple worked with private and corporate clients designing for landscapes and interior architecture, pattern and furniture sinergies - using their fine art backgrounds, practical know how and experience working with established architectural practices in London. Their own style and creating spaces designed for specific purpose and precedence. Amanda's experience working for Eric Kuhne and Chris's many commissions as an architectural model photographer for Fosters etc equipped them to confidently combine instinct with professional build narrative.
