Melanie Porter

After 10 years working as a knitwear designer, Melanie Porter turned her expertise to furniture, creating one-off designs from antiques. Each project starts with the frame, which is stripped back, before being restored using traditional techniques and then covered with hand knitted panels. Melanie undertakes the entire process herself by hand. The result of this labour-intensive process is a stunning, unique work of art, destined to be a future family heirloom.
