LIVING
FLEMING & HOWLAND
As a family that has been making furniture the traditional way since 1780, Fleming & Howland know how hard it can be to ignore the pressures of the moment to adapt and change. Far from being insulted, they are proud to be called eccentric. They see it as a label that connects them to a long history of original British thinkers. There is something in the cut of their cloth that makes them nurture and celebrate their eccentrics. Eccentricity is part of Fleming & Howland's national DNA. Without it, there would be no Orwell. There would be no Vivienne Westwood or Charles Rennie Mackintosh. They believe that the principles of eccentricity continue to have value both for how they work and how they live.
SUSTAINABILITY PURPOSE
Surrounded by the mills, lakes and valleys of Lancashire, Fleming & Howland are constantly reminded of how much they owe to nature, and of their place in the industrial history of the nation. Their work offers a tangible connection to the past, living proof of the quality and craftsmanship that once made British manufacturing the envy of the world. They are also aware of their role as a responsible, sustainable business. Their age gives them a broader perspective. They have seen the world transform time and time again, but those changes only have made them more certain of their beliefs.

BUTTERFLY MARK TESTIMONIAL
We care about the impact humans cause on the planet by retail consumption. As a result, we want to minimise this effect where possible. We want to do more than increase the lifespan of our furniture and ensure that every aspect of the business is conducted in the most ethical of ways.
