Who we are

Mad Goat was founded by Alex, a furniture maker with over a decade of hands-on experience in workshops across the UK. Before starting his own studio, Alex worked with a wide range of design-led businesses - from traditional joiners to contemporary furniture makers gaining insight into what makes great furniture, and what makes a great client experience.

Mad Goat was born from a desire to bring these things together: beautiful, functional design, and a process that feels collaborative, personal, and calm.

We think great design comes from original thinking - and that furniture should be as individual as the people it’s made for.

Our workshop is based in Hackney Wick, surrounded by a community of artists, makers, and independent businesses. It’s a place full of energy and ideas, and we’re proud to be part of it.

We work primarily across East and North London, but welcome projects from creative clients anywhere with a good idea and an interesting space.
