Local Company – Day and Knight Bedroom Design

Wednesday, April 27th, 2011

Heathrow is not an island, but is part of the surrounding community. Today we take a look at Horton based “Day and Knight Bedroom Design” who are proving time and again that even in our modern industrialised age, craftsmanship is still alive and well.
Jonathan Hope is a man who is good with his hands. A member of the Guild of Master Craftsmen, after half a lifetime working with wood he can turn his skills to almost any task. However he has chosen to build his reputation on fine bespoke fitted bedroom furniture.

Whether using the most expensive oaks or modern composite materials, he is able to turn a client’s half dreamed vision into a solid reality. Jonathan is also by necessity a designer. Some clients need the support that his long experience can offer, while others have very fixed ideas. Jonathan is therefore also a man of tact and diplomacy, managing to negotiate the sometimes turbulent waters of the planning process without the customer ever becoming anxious or confused.

And what of the Heathrow connection? Aside from being a local business, Day and Knight rely on the regular deliveries of exotic materials and new design ideas that a major airport brings to a region. Heathrow airport is a hub for the introduction of styles, themes, impressions,  and cultures that land on a dily basis, enriching the local landscape. Although steeped in tradition, Day and Knight are a forward looking company who agree that when it comed to quality bedrooms, the sky is the limit.
