#8 'David Tragen talks about forging your own path as a designer'

Listen to the unusual journey of this top end furniture maker. It's as dynamic and original as the furniture itself. David Tragen creates bespoke and limited edition furniture, sculpture and lighting as well as offering short woodworking courses from his rural Cheshire workshop in the UK. The career path of a freelancer, like David, is often very different to that of someone graduating from a formal institute. A clear professional direction and self-assuredness are qualities that need to be built from the inside out. Nothing is laid out with clear signage and ready-made manuals. see more at www.naturalscool.com Find David http://davidtragen.co.uk
