About

Hi , my name is Clive

I started out as race technician preparing rally cars at a very young age, a twist of fate took me into construction where I did an apprenticeship in electricity and went on to built (as a manager ) many housing estates accross southern England. But i wanted to be more creative, so i started my own interior design company in the early 1990's. Customers ranged from the rich and famous to the normal person on the street, with work ranging from simple repairs to complete re-designs and installation. Always working on my own, this enabled me to acheive the highest quality of craftsmenship that not only my customers expected, but i would not allow anything less.

In the late 1990's I got involved with a company called "Burge and Gunson" based in Wimbledon London, who were (and still are ) one of londons most prestigious bathroom supply companies. For many years after I was their ONLY recommended bathroom installer, and was able to carry out the complete installation including electrics, plumbing and tiling.

In 2008 I changed direction and went back into race engineering, I went back to school and learned CAD programming which added a new dimension to my ideas., as a passionate hobbyist it made sense. Now i was designing and fabricating components for motorcycle race teams on all levels right upto Moto GP. Rebuilding engines and tuning as well as running a dyno shop.

This is when i discovered Anodising, the thrill of designing a component, machining it on the CNC and then anodising it , packaging it and exporting it to anywhere in the world. Then I got many enquiries for anodising, it seemed that Europe lacked someone able to do carry out small quantities of components at a reasonable price, thats where i fitted in, it wasnt long before word got around, and my ability to do what the big companies said was impossible (putting graphics into the metal ) and the work came in from all directions. prototypes from companies like Lotus and McLaren, specialist finishing for Triumph motorcycles.... the list goes on. But i never lost touch with my other skills, always willing to help my ex-customers out.

So now I am in France, I am able to put a lifetimes knowledge and passion for creating into practice, whether a simple terrace, or an elaborate lighting display to beautiful bathrooms, feel free to get in touch and start the ball rolling on your dreams and ideas.
