Our Story

Founded in 2010, Another Country is a company that designs and makes contemporary wood furniture and home accessories.
Our designs are inspired by archetype, calling on the familiar and unpretentious forms of British Country kitchen style, Shaker, traditional Scandinavian and Japanese woodwork for inspiration. We endeavour to re-interpret the spirit and functionality of these honest forms of furniture for a modern customer.
Another Country aims to deliver quality and longevity at fair prices – our products are built to last, both in terms of construction and style. All of our wooden products are made from sustainable timbers and we make use of both time-honoured craft techniques and modern technology and we work in as sustainable a way as possible.
You can purchase products for your home or commercial project from us directly, or through select dealers in the UK and worldwide.
Our Mission
Our mission is to be a responsible, purposeful and useful company that is fit for the 21st century, and we strive to strike the right balance between craft and industry.

How it’s made
We combine traditional methods of making with modern technology to ensure that each piece is made with great care, attention to detail and precision. Every piece is hand assembled, hand finished and quality controlled before leaving the workshops.
Here is a short film from a visit to one of our partner workshops in Portugal following the making a Side Table One.
The making of Slow Sofa
The design of the Slow Sofa is generous in scale yet visually light, with a thin outer frame and feet that allow for space under the sofa.
Natural materials including feathers fill the back cushions, sheets of recycled wool are used to pad the outer frame, whilst layers of latex, feather and wool are used to make the seat cushions, creating an inviting, supportive and cocooning sofa.
Watch a short film showing the intricate process of the making of the Slow Sofa, handmade to order in the UK.


Founder Story
Our friends at The Modern House filmed our founder at his cottage in the Wiltshire countryside, just up the road from our workshop.
