The English Furniture Workshop Newsletter...

Social Media and Creative Culture...

This month we are introducing a new format for our Newsletter, we hope you like it. We have been trying to  keep up with the frantic pace of social media, and realised that a more concise and precise Monthly Newsletter may work better along side other aspects of Social Media that are now so popular such as Facebook. 
 
Our new Facebook page is intended to keep those who are interested up to date with our news and general progress, our inspiration and current thinking.  Our Monthly Newsletter will feature our most recent pieces of furniture, as soon as they go on sale, as well as other important news and dates.
 
I began our Facebook page after I found myself browsing the (facebook) pages of some of my favorite companies such as Farrow and Ball, Woven Oak and Miss Print. Rather than just viewing the products, it was the ability to find out the history and the inspiration behind the designs and the products that was so enlightening.  Our Facebook page will be an interactive diary where people can comment on our work and where we will explain ideas and inspiration.  We hope you enjoy! (comments please!)
