Welcome to Lu Barton Design.
I'm Lu. The founder, designer and maker of lovingly crafted, bespoke and unique pieces guaranteed to brighten up your home.
I have been extremely lucky to have had access to some of the finest experiences in the world of furniture design and craft. From training at the famous Robinson House Studio to cutting my teeth in two of the finest workshops in the UK, Silverlining and Benchmark, I have learned the meaning of quality.
These experiences have enabled me to be able to design, make and deliver standout furnishings that spark joy, encourage conversation and bring a unique quality to the home.
However, the calling to start my own business was always there so, upon realising the demand for high end furniture and homewares at reasonable price points, in 2024…

I took the leap

I want to make furniture and homewares using only the highest quality and sustainably sourced materials that are good for both planet and people and allow everyone here to appreciate and enjoy the magic of woodwork.
So here we are. And here’s what we do!
Bespoke Commissions
Got a project in mind? In addition to our off-the-shelf items, there is nothing we enjoy more than creating a statement piece that will adorn your home for generations to come. There is no idea too big or too small when it comes to a project unique to you and we're excited to see how we can bring those ideas to life.
Furniture
Life is expensive. But the demand for quality remains. We provide high end furniture at accessible price points so that quality can be enjoyed by all. Using only the best and most sustainable materials, we hope you find exceptional furniture that can spark joy for many years to come.
Homewares
Sometimes it is the small and simple items in our house that bring us the most joy. Recognising that, we wanted to create homewares that make the everyday extraordinary. From chopping boards to mirrors, charcuteries to jewellery bowls, there is something for everyone in order to make even the most mundane daily tasks more enjoyable.
Upcycling
Whether you have a worn piece that could use a new lease of life or an old item simply gathering dust in the loft, we will inject it with new energy and make it once again into a functioning piece you're proud to have on display.
