Made with solid ash, ash plywood, Corian Worktops and olive linoleum. Our lovely client wanted this project to be more than a fitted kitchen. A piece of furniture than can be appreciated in its openness and simplicity, with detailed accents to fall in love with. What a project! Custom designed, fabricated and installed by us at draff studio.difference.

Earlier in 2024 V&A Dundee commissioned us to design and fabricate a plinth to display their collection of The Dalmore ‘s luminary series. When we design something we always start with researching the historical and traditional. This is where you can extract really beautiful detail from pieces of heritage, and then translate that into something paired back and showcase the detail in the design. In this case that was looking at traditional Japanese woodworking aesthetics and motifs, as well as the use of oak in the whisky industry.

Daytrippers! is a collaboration between V&A Dundee and Local Heroes that supports designers by commissioning collectable, limited edition souvenirs. We worked with Stacey Hunter and Martin Baillie to design and fabricate two mobile displays. Two iconic Christiania Copenhagen cargo bikes have been carefully adapted to display their special commissions.

Draff Studio led on the fabrication, install and de-stall of the exhibition curated by Stacey Hunter and Martin Baillie for Creative Informatics and Edinburgh University to be delivered at the National Museum of Scotland as well as two other venues over 3 years. The exhibition aimed to showcase the integration of Scotland's world-class creative industries with its tech sector, harnessing data for innovative products and experiences. Emphasising sustainability and durability, we fabricated these installations with adaptable, modular surfaces designed for long-term reuse and AV integration. This approach not only enhanced the versatility of the displays but also aligned with our commitment to material sustainability, ensuring that the installations could evolve with future needs while minimising environmental impact.
