Way of Life: Furniture design by Pinch

Pinch is a British furniture brand founded in 2004 as the collaboration between husband and wife team Russell Pinch and Oona Bannon. Working from their studio /showroom in London, they aim to create graceful and iconic furniture and lighting that work for both elegant domestic spaces and stylish contract environments.

With a timeless quality, their pieces are designed and built to last, and work comfortably in a variety of situations, from concrete to country. Their approach to design combines a keen appreciation of artistic lines and form, absolute attention to detail and sensitivity to materials. After graduating Russel Pinch worked as Sir Terence Conran’s design assistant and became a senior product designer for the Conran Group and Oona joined Pinch full time in 2006. Russell also designs for a number of other retailers and brands including SCP, Ercol, Conran and Jamie Oliver’s JME home-ware range.

Pinch: “Our pieces are made by hand and to order, and we have worked hard to locate and employ the best quality makers here in the UK. We believe in using local, making to need, and offering bespoke flexibility wherever possible to ensure our clients commission pieces that really deliver both on function and aesthetic.”
