Bespoke Furniture and Home Design

We hand-craft beautiful objects and design contemporary spaces. We build nature into design. We design and curate bespoke furniture, gifts and landscapes. We add clever details and hope to push the boundaries of design to create dramatic contemporary works with deep roots in the local landscape, materials and traditional techniques. The handcrafted furniture celebrates the simplicity of two elements, natural local materials of wood with stone or metals. Our vision is for bespoke elements with innovative and clever details.

All work is designed and handmade in Ireland by our founding partners Edward Coveney and Esther Gerrard. Elements of Action outsource a small portion of work to local master crafts and designers.

Our work has been awarded the IDI award 2016 including an award in for Domestic Interiors ‘the gold kitchen’ and a commendation in furniture design. The Future Makers award 2018 and Ed Coveney received the RDS Craft award 2019,

Esther and Ed combine design and a love of materiality and Irish landscape with a background in construction and stone masonry. Both are designers, makers and hold Masters Degrees in Landscape Architecture and bring skills in product design, specialist stonemasonry, landscape design and project management. Esther is an experienced project manager in building construction and has delivered and successfully executed major projects in both the public and private sector.

Ed was a master stonemason with a meticulous eye for detail and quality previous projects range from painstaking renovations, elaborate follies and both landscaping and architectural stone work.

"Esther facilities and enables communities to play an active role in the development of their neighborhoods, streetscapes, parks, villages and towns."
