ABOUT US

Designed and made in the Black Country.

Super Ornament is a Black Country design studio founded by RCA graduate Adam Waldron and art director Safiyya Lea.

Design shaped by making

The studio designs and manufactures furniture and objects in aluminium and steel, working exclusively with the Black Country’s network of fabricators and finishers.

Every piece is developed in close collaboration with the people who make it, allowing manufacturing to shape the design rather than simply produce it.

The process of making is part of an object’s character.

Built to be repaired

Our collection is defined by exposed construction, visible assembly and enduring materials.

Rather than concealing how an object is made, we treat making as part of its character. We create pieces built to be repaired rather than replaced.

Rooted in the Black Country

For centuries, the Black Country has been at the centre of Britain’s engineering and manufacturing industries. Many of the workshops and specialist skills that shaped the region continue to exist today.

By keeping production local, we support this network while demonstrating what contemporary British manufacturing can achieve.
