For the fourth consecutive year, we are thrilled to welcome back Designs Woodcraft as a champion of the BRAVO Awards! As we celebrate our 10th anniversary, they are stepping up as the proud sponsors of one of our most fiercely contested categories: Best Brunch.
Based in the heart of Sussex, Designs Woodcraft are masters of bespoke timber work. Not only do they create the beautiful furniture found in many of our city’s top venues, but they are also the super-skilled makers behind our iconic BRAVO trophies. Each year, they handcraft these coveted awards, turning local timber into symbols of excellence for our winners.
From artisan sourdough to the perfect poached egg, the venues in this category represent the very best of Brighton hospitality—and we couldn’t be happier to have a local master-craftsman like Designs Woodcraft helping us crown the 2026 winner.
Crafting Bespoke Furniture with a Sustainable Focus
Situated at the foot of the stunning South Downs National Park, Designs Woodcraft is a family-run business in West Sussex specialising in bespoke handmade furniture and one-of-a-kind pieces. With extensive experience in the carpentry industry, their team brings unparalleled craftsmanship and creativity to every project.
Their primary focus has always been on creating furniture that combines perfection and sustainability. Using locally sourced, sustainable woods, Designs Woodcraft produces artisan pieces for individual clients and some of the most renowned names in the retail and hospitality industries.
Passion for Craftsmanship and Innovation
Designs Woodcraft takes immense pride in their meticulous approach to design and manufacturing, ensuring quality and innovation remain at the heart of their work. In 2021, they began working closely with the Duke of Norfolk to process their own timber, allowing them to trace the origin of every piece of wood back to its source. They are now working toward becoming a carbon-negative company.
Having collaborated with some of the finest hospitality venues in the business, Designs Woodcraft embodies a passion for sustainable craftsmanship that aligns perfectly with the ethos of the Sustainable Eats category.
