Mena Woodwork + Design is a small, focused workshop, specialising in functional, understated and sustainable outdoor furniture handmade in Cornwall, UK. We prefer to use traditional joinery techniques, tried and tested by generations of woodworkers before us, and a timeless design aesthetic. As well as our range of contemporary garden furniture, we also offer a fully bespoke woodwork service.
Starting as an apprentice under the watchful eye of a master carpenter, I discovered my passion for the industry early on. Years of honing my skills along with my appreciation for the raw elemental beauty of Cornwall – where I was born and raised – inspired the creation of Mena Woodwork + Design in 2018. We work out of our workshop on the Boconnoc Estate in Lostwithiel, Cornwall.
