On Monday (23/01/2012), we will be going to the Interiors UK 2012 exhibition, which is hosted in Birmingham.
For this task I will select three furniture manufacturers, three fabric or textile companies, and three lighting companies with explanations about why I want to go visit them at the exhibition.
Three Furniture Makers:
I liked this company due to them producing innovative and bespoke pieces of furniture, such as the one above.
This is a family run business, which is over 50 years old, and I feel like they would be one of the most likely businesses to answer any questions which I may have.
Three Fabric Companies:
This is a local company to me (Leeds), and could possibly used for contact in the future.
For this task I will select three furniture manufacturers, three fabric or textile companies, and three lighting companies with explanations about why I want to go visit them at the exhibition.
Three Furniture Makers:
www.besp-oakfurniture.co.uk
www.sjsfurniture.co.uk
This company was selected because all their furniture is handmade, and I liked the rustic aesthetics that their furniture has.

Three Fabric Companies:
www.kobe.eu
This company specialises in fabric and upholstery for furniture, and taking comments and demands from furniture makers.
www.yarwood.co.uk
www.james-hare.com
This company had the widest range of fabric available, and will be good to compare them altogether.
Three Lighting Companies:
www.tuscanorlighting.co.uk
They specialise in traditional lighting, which maybe the kind of furniture which I may have to design and make in the future.

I picked this company to look at as they seemed to have the most modem designs of lightning.
www.paulo-coelho.com
The final company that I will look at is a company which makes bespoke lighting depending on the requirements of the client, and also the furniture in the room.
this is an interesting collection of makers - thanks.
