While visiting London, I was a able to pick up a copy of Made in England, a book chronicling the bespoke frame building tradition in the UK. The book is a wonderful look into this rarefied field, and highlights 12 builders, such as Feather, Lee Cooper, Ron Cooper, and Dave Yates, to name a few. Each builder is given a brief bio, and an interview with the builder follows. The questions are to the point, and give a good sense of what the builder is about. There is plenty of stunning photography by Kayti Peschke throughout the book. The project was put together by Mathew Sowter and Ricky Feather, and published by Push Projects LTD. It is available for purchase through Push Projects.
