In the coming months we will feature the work of some inspired contemporary British artists. First up, Paul Hillary is a British abstract and semi-abstract artist influenced by atmospheres in nature as well as everyday textures in urban and countryside environments. Paul has built a reputation for his work in the UK, USA and Europe. He paints in his studio in Hertfordshire and exhibits widely in the home counties of the UK.

The Pebble Chair combines elements of sculpture with functional furniture to reflect feelings and sensations often associated with nature. Each pebble was carved and shaped by hand in English oak.
Read MoreInterior designers, architects and end customers typically work with us in one of three ways. They either buy ‘off the shelf’ (so to speak) a standard made-to-order item from our online shop. Alternatively, we can customise on some of our standard shop items if a change to the size, material or finish of a current design is preferred. And we can work with you to commission a recommended designer-maker to create a completely bespoke piece of furniture or object from conception through to completion to help realise your own ideas.
Read MoreIn late January 2022 we were approached by a private client to discuss a custom-designed feature wall installation of the 2D and 3D Wall Panels we offer in the hallway of their Bedfordshire home. From the first conversation late January 2022 to completion of the installation in July 2022, this customised order took 6 months to complete, however, these installations can be delivered in a shorter timeframe if required.
Read MoreFrom the makers of our popular and sustainably-sourced 2D and 3D wall panels, we’re delighted to announce that the ACOUSTIC Series has now launched and is available to order through Teer & Co. The ACOUSTIC Series guarantees scientific confirmation and quality proof of the working of acoustic properties.
The main objective was to create products that will help with the ubiquitous problem of reducing reverberation in the interiors - wooden panels have the appropriate sound absorption class to fix this problem. The actual outcome to this work has far exceeded expectations given the ACOUSTIC Series has managed to achieve the highest class of sound absorption - class A.
Read MoreSince the introduction of this beautiful range of wall panels by our good friends Form At Wood in Poland, the sustainably-sourced timber options offered have included Oak (with 5 stain colour options available) or Walnut. Alongside these timber options we can now offer the complete range of 2D and 3D wall panelling in Ash which we think are stunning!
Read MoreIn this image you see 4 x Pillow EDGE Series 3D Wall Panels. The two panels on the left are the carefully selected prime grade oak panels we currently offer, displaying the beauty and unique wood grain of each panel without any of the natural imperfections of wood. The two panels on the right are Rustic oak panels that display some of the natural imperfections of timber. Which do you prefer, the Select oak or Rustic oak panels?

Read MoreWorking with designers throughout my career since the mid 80s I’ve seen most scenarios there could be playing out around designer-client engagement and the resulting dynamics and behaviours that are formed between them. Everything I’ve learnt about working with designers, client service, process, project management and being proactive is now poured into Teer & Co to the betterment of how custom and bespoke projects run and how we look out for both our Designer-Makers and clients by taking the middle ground and steering the proceedings.
Read MoreHere's a stunning installation made in February at a private villa in France of the beautiful Decorative Panelling we offer in our Collection. These panels are typically used for interiors, however this example of an exterior installation was applied by the customer to his front door using our detailed guidelines. Makes quite an impactful first impression, and certainly brings a touch of glamour!
