Daniel Hayden

Furniture Designer and Maker

Idiosyncratic and simple, Daniel’s practice stems from a love of rustic 20th century European modernism and a “particular interest in the personalities we see in furniture – through its proportions and the balance between naivety and craftsmanship.”

The ‘Tipsy’ lounge chair is Daniel’s first piece of garden furniture, made exclusively for Them Outdoors. A keen gardener, Daniel – whose work is usually focused on interiors – jumped at the chance to create a piece of work for an outdoor setting.

Despite only retraining as a furniture maker at Williams & Cleal in 2022, by 2024 Dan was showing at London Craft Week and has already created an exclusive line for online gallery The Invisible Collection.

Dan works from a former air raid warden’s building in East Bristol.
