ABOUT

Dylan Glyn is a furniture designer and maker based in Caersŵs, on the banks of the river Severn in mid Wales. With over thirty years’ experience spanning forestry, design and furniture making, Dylan brings this knowledge of material use and design sensitivity to his work.

From his newly established workshop, he creates small batches of contemporary furniture informed by the traditions of Welsh vernacular design mixed with a fascination of structure and sculptural forms that balance precision with warmth, craftsmanship with restraint. Dylan offers design-led furniture that embodies contemporary Welsh craft at its most considered. Each design is an exploration of proportion, construction and space to create furniture that feels timeless, enduring and at ease within architectural spaces.

Most of the curves and flowing lines of his work are produced through the technique of steam bending timber, most of which is sourced from local woodlands. Each piece tells a unique story of the valleys, hills, rivers and mountains that makes up this land of Wales.
