TOM HEYWOOD

Tom Heywood is a sculptor and designer based in Penzance, Cornwall, known for creating entirely one-off pieces that are deeply connected to the material from which they are formed. Each sculpture is a response to the texture, age, and character of the wood, allowing the material itself to guide the stylistic direction of the final work. Graceful, stylish, and striking, his sculptures hold an irresistible appeal—both to the eye and to the soul.

“I design and create unique furniture, sculpture, and interiors, all from my workshop in Penzance. From a young age, I’ve been passionate about craft and design. After gaining valuable experience within the woodworking industry, I felt compelled to branch out and develop my own identity. My work is rooted in a deep respect for the natural world. I use a blend of traditional woodworking techniques and contemporary design to produce sculptural pieces that are not only visually captivating but also retain a sense of functionality.”

Tom also works to commission and welcomes bespoke projects. Whether you’re looking to add a sculptural centrepiece, bespoke cabinetry, or commission a statement feature work for your garden or home, we can guide you through the process and liaise directly with Tom on your behalf.
