Hi, I'm Jake, a designer, maker and founder of FocusFive Designs.
I created FocusFive Designs from my parent's garage in 2017 at 22 years old.
We always had car parts laying around and I started to get ideas of what other purposes they could have, so I began drawing up designs and firing up the welder.
My 'van' was a diesel Renault Clio (that was so good on fuel it basically ran on fresh air!) and I began collecting a small collection of tools - borrowing what I didn't have..
...In Spring 2017 I put together about 10 different designs and managed to get a last minute place at the annual Arley Hall Simply Cheshire Show.
The response I got from everybody was unbelievable.
We soon outgrew the small garage and now FocusFive Designs has a space all to itself!
Our products are carefully handcrafted in our Cheshire workshop, using care and attention to detail.
Steel fabrication is done in house and built to withstand anything you can throw at it. We only use quality sustainable timbers, taking care to preserve its authentic character and imperfections throughout the production process.
Creating a bespoke and original product every time.
