The stuff we do at Jon Rhodes Part one.

01.07.17

The first stage of any project is usually a site measure (unless estimating from plans and elevations previously). Here I am in Derbyshire measuring up windows for a lovely new project, summer 2017. I’m looking for overall window sizes, drops and widths, and I’m planning the over-sail measurements above and to each side of windows […]

Kilt headings

02.06.17

Last time we did this was for a Client with Scottish heritage in NYC in the ’90s. Kind of like it! #everythingoldisnewagain #handmadeinengland #pelmets #godisinthedetail #kilt #labourintensive #scottishdesign #pleats #howmanyknots?

Pattern cutting inspiration in NYC

21.04.17

Loved viewing these cleverly cut dress drapes in the Drawing room or ‘Fragonard’ room at the Frick residence, 5th Ave, NYC over Easter weekend. The Italian strung effect is in fact created by cleverly placed pleats (in the same style as the outside edges of swags) at the points of the upper passementerie tassel tiebacks, […]

February Bespoke headboards

22.02.17

Just completed these pairs of and single headboards for twins and king size beds, with wings / deep curved profiles / con caved curved tops and all with cut outs at the base to fit around skirting boards, so guaranteeing a perfect result when we fit them in situ.
