The open entrance to The Well Barn workshop in Little Crosby

The Well Barn · Little Crosby

The
workshop.

People, drawing, making and fitting kept close to the work and to one another.

The Well Barn is where live commissions are drawn, made and finished—not a showroom of ranges.

Keeping those decisions close allows the room, the individual cabinet and the hand-scale detail to be judged as one piece of work.

The Well Barn

Made here,
then fitted in place.

Drawing, cabinetmaking, finishing and fitting remain connected through the workshop. Private clients form the heart of Corinthian's work; architects and interior designers are equally welcome.

Neil O'Brien · Founder

A furniture maker's
view of the room.

Neil founded Corinthian in 1994 and leads its work as a master cabinetmaker and furniture restorer.

Restoration brings a long view to new work: how timber moves, where construction matters and how a surface should age.
