John, our master upholsterer, started in the U.K. in the ‘80s making disability furniture, where he honed custom design, comfort, and durability. He went on to tackle prestigious projects, like refurbishing the iconic Harrods of Knightsbridge London Tea Rooms and upholstering private jets in Switzerland.
