About tfd.



Our passion starts with a simple desire to collaborate and create.

At tfd we understand that to create aesthetically beautiful products which are successful requires in-depth knowledge of the craft of manufacture and choice of materials, as well as a full comprehension of the client’s market and their customers’ aspirations. 

Background.

Tim Fenby is an experienced, award winning British furniture designer. 

His love of design began in his teens when working with his family’s interior business. After studying for a degree in Furniture Design and Manufacture he began his career with British manufacturer Ducal. Tim went on to head up product design for some of the leading furniture brands in the UK before starting tfd in 2008.

A unique offering.

At tfd we believe combining three key principles allows us to bring our clients a unique offering within the industry.

Knowledgeable & experienced

We pride ourselves on our wide market knowledge and our analysis of the retail sector and emerging trends. This, coupled with our experience of global manufacturing capabilities and techniques gathered over twenty five years in the industry, gives us the foundation to create designs that your customers will love.  

Collaborative & creative

We can manage the complete development process for you, creating focused concepts, rendered images and prototype drawings. Liaising directly with factories and suppliers on your behalf, we can then ensure the delivery of exciting, aspirational new products ready for you to bring to market.

Commercially aware

Our work is underpinned by a desire to build a solid understanding of your market and your customers’ aspirations. This informed approach is at the core of our design process, enabling us to create inspirational furniture collections that are commercially successful.

“I have a love of simplicity, balance and craft. When these three things are inherent in a piece of furniture you are onto something!”
