Making real world bold brand statements with Style & Craft

Specially commissioned Art, Design and Engineered Creations.

Successful art and design solutions require more than creative vision, they demand professional execution, engineering precision and robust project management, topped with exceptional customer service.

Former creative digital agency founder and artist Jake Hithersay, has started a new venture in partnership with a highly experienced industrial product design engineer and artist. This combination of experience enables www.styleandcraft.co.uk to offer a service that operates at the intersection of bespoke art, object design and technical engineering.

With a background in Fine Art, long(ish) career in creative and digital, as well as a stint in bespoke branded merchandise, Style & Craft represents a passion for creating tangible, real life visual statements for different kinds of environments.

Style & Craft is not simply a supplier of art and collections, it functions as a Design and Creation Consultancy, specialising in highly creative, technical or ambitious bespoke art and installations that can critically enhance the purpose, value and perception of spaces.

From corporate environments, to leisure and hospitality spaces or public realm, Style & Craft have a mission to make almost anything possible. 

Combining vision, artistry, process and precision to enhance spaces.

For any business undertaking fit-outs, commissioning large-scale installations, or requiring highly customised artistic pieces, Style & Craft, we hope, provides a number of advantages:

Creative & Artistic Direction: We start with the vision. Style & Craft provides expert guidance on concept development, material selection and aesthetic alignment, ensuring the final creation perfectly reflects either the client’s brand ethos or contributes to the meaning of the space and achieves maximum visual impact.

Professional Project Management: We eliminate the risks associated with artistic commissions. Every project is managed with rigour and proven processes, ensuring timelines, budgets and technical specifications are met precisely from concept development through to installation.

Realisation: Ensuring success at the manufacturing and installation stages. Style & Craft excels in translating sometimes complex artistic visions into physical reality, utilising artisan craftsmanship and engineering expertise, specialised fabrication processes and knowledge to ensure durability, compliance and flawless execution.

Spatial Enhancement: Our creations, whether a large-scale sculpture for a corporate lobby, a unique display of specially sourced artefacts for a boardroom, or a collection of curated art for a hotel, or a visual statement for a visitor attraction are investments that bring multiple benefits to everyone who uses the space. 

Well considered, designed collections and engineered creations, sympathetic to their context, space and narrative will:

> Elevate identity and perception

> Create genuine human connection

> Serve as an intellectual anchor and differentiator

> Deliver a narrative and create a memory

> Enhance the feeling of well-being

> Increase appeal and perceived value

Working in collaboration and partnership to achieve a vision.

We believe that successful bespoke creation projects require a methodical, technical approach. This blend of strategy, management, artistry and sculptural engineering delivers measurable value.

We’ll undertake small to medium scale projects, from single artistic commissions, to larger, more complex design and production projects that span environments.

We work directly with businesses that have a space that needs an identity but we also work in close partnership with architects, interior designers and brand agencies, serving as creative and technical specialists that help bring complex artistic visions to life within the project brief.

“Style & Craft’s mission is to make ideas come to life, triggering memorable experiences and emotional responses that enhance environments through tangible visual presences. We’re also about de-risking the artistic, creative led engineering process with proven methodology and expertise.

Adding creative value and achieving success when the artistic brief is complex, or the engineering requirement is challenging, requires a combination of experience, skills, disciplines and processes, ensuring any problems are solved without compromising the vision.

Bridging the gaps between abstract design concepts, technical feasibility and high quality outcomes also calls for close collaboration with stakeholders, tight project control and a determination to achieve perfection. The purpose of every project is to deliver the best possible outcome within its context and constraints.”
