About Us

Woodworkshop was set up by Jon Lancaster and has been in existence since 2005.

Our designs are strongly influenced by simplified line, shape and form which creates a fluidity with its surroundings. We attain the ethos that – “Good design together with the correct construction method creates the perfect finished piece”.

Joe Penney:
YSP Restaurant Manager

Woodworkshop design have worked on a number of design & installation projects at the Yorkshire Sculpture Park over recent years including our restaurant tables, retractable partition walls & bespoke servery units. The quality of design & craftsmanship really is second to none, with careful thought, planning & advice on some of the smaller, but no less important design aspects. I would recommend Woodworkshop to anyone who is looking for high quality, exceptionally well designed projects.
