Meet the Maker
Alan Richards
Inspiration Design
The example projects shown here were made without any idea of commercializing them. They were made for the enjoyment of creative work. After some encouragement from my family, I was convinced that making a business of this would be a way to get more work done, to focus and to spread the ideas further.
I have experience in a wide range of project types; from furniture to boatbuilding. The common thread is that I am inspired by the tradition of craftsmanship, the value of good design, and a belief in the strong interdependence of thinking and making. If people who see and use these pieces feel the same joy that I experienced in making in them, in the materialization of ideas, then I will feel it was a success.
If you are interested in one of the example projects or would like to discuss a different project, please get in touch.

Jan 5, 2015The Salt and Pepper Shakers that Alan made were one of my in-laws favorite gifts of the year! He was very cooperative and while he was going to be out of town, made a plan with me to make sure I had them before leaving for their house.
