WHEN FURNITURE DESIGNER Felix Conran returned to London for the first-time after lockdown restrictions eased, an early morning visit to an old friend’s photography studio lead to a fortuitous procurement. “I’d been out seeing a whole bunch of people, then around three in the morning I turned up at my friend Angus’s house. He showed me the space, we shook hands, and I came back at eight to pick up the keys,” Felix explains. Since relocating back to England from New York at the beginning of the pandemic, Felix had been living in Sussex with his father and business partner, Alex Willcock, while searching for a place of his own. “I was living with dad, which is also where we work, so it was quite a lot!” says Felix. The pair created Maker and Son in 2018, and the furniture brand now services the US, New Zealand and Australia, as well as the UK.
