Aberfeldy-based furniture maker Angus Ross creates sustainable wooden pieces using environmentally friendly techniques such as steam-bending.
Having seen the amount of plastic waste created while working as a product designer for a major retailer, Angus Ross was motivated to create a sustainable craft that was kinder to the environment. Having grown up with a woodsman father, Angus had a lifelong passion for woodwork and decided to pursue it as a career.
He uses techniques such as steam-bending to create unique wooden furniture pieces, and also co-owns and manages a local bluebell woodland, trimming back the timber to promote plant biodiversity on the forest floor.
