It’s Christmas (well almost)!
Ho Ho Ho!
Christmas at Hill Upholstery & Design!
Christmas came early for Hill Upholstery & Design this year. Here’s a few sneaky photos from our Christmas dinner which was a great excuse to unwind as a team, dish out Secret Santa presents and just be silly as an action packed year comes to a close.

Behind the scenes
If you haven’t noticed already we love taking photos of the work we do and showing you want goes on behind the scenes.
We love showing them off on our website to give you an idea of the talented team we have here. Sometimes we turn the camera mode onto video and hope for the best – they may not be as professional as we’d like, but what the heck, they show you what we are actually doing and how we do it.
If we’ve whet your appetite, then grab yourself a cup of tea or whatever floats your boat and take a look at our You Tube channel by clicking on the following link to take you to our most recent work making a custom made headboard made for one of our Shenfield clients.

Now if this isn’t a photo that deserves a funny caption I don’t know what is! Answers on a postcard…
Good luck Anthony Heard!
Hill Upholstery & Design is proud to be one of the sponsors for our good friend Anthony Heard who is taking part in a boxing match TONIGHT at Chelmsford City Racecourse. His goal is to raise as much money as possible for friend Brookin Johnson. You can hear about Brookin’s struggle here.

Restaurants Seating
I (Helen) had an excuse this week to admire the restaurants seating work we did for Italian restaurant Cucina in my lovely home town of Leigh on sea, Essex.
In July & August this year, our talented master upholsterers transformed the restaurants seating as part of their refurbishment. Lots of lovely soft blue & cool grey shades featured in the fluted seating which work great with the new copper lighting and accessories – bellissimo!
It was the perfect place to unwind after a very busy week.
You can see more images of the finished look on our case study or even better…book a table – the food is to die for!

Upholstered Seating County Hall London
Early August Scott & Helen were lucky enough to visit the debating chambers inside the Riverside Building at the County Hall London. The debating room was used by Ken Livingstone and the Greater London Council through the late 1980’s, providing upholstered seating for over 200 council members and has four galleries overlooking the Chamber which was used for the public and members of the press. An interesting place to visit tucked away behind the hustle and bustle of the South Bank.
Nowadays the chamber is used for performances and corporate hire with this in mind some of the upholstered seating that had previously been removed needed to be replaced ready for their next hire, we turned this around for them in time for their next hire. We’ve just found out the next performance to be held in the chambers will be the fantastic Agatha’s Christie’s Witness for the Prosecution – Fabulous!
