The making of the Onyar

When we signed up for 100% Design with only weeks to prepare, we decided to move full steam ahead with our new design which our Design Director, Nick Lewis had been working on.

Why 100% Design?

Our love for London Design Festival We are delighted to have a stand at 100% Design where we can show a wider range of designs than we did at Clerkenwell Design Week.

Roger Lewis: history and heritage

In order to really get to know a long-standing business, you have to have a little dig around in the archives and do your homework on its origins, founders, ethos and heritage.
