So, what was the inspiration behind Unique Elements?
“The inception of Unique Elements stemmed from a deep appreciation for the intrinsic character of wood combined with an ambition to create furniture that transcends mere utility. We observed how certain rare or reclaimed wood species carry visual and tactile vitality—figured grain, subtle colour variation, surface history—and we sought to allow those materials to be revealed in honest fine woodcraft.
At the same time, we recognised that many high-end furniture houses had drifted toward formulaic design or standardised production. We resolved to marry bespoke production, architectural harmony, and sustainable design ethos: each piece being thoughtfully designed, precisely crafted, and intimately connected to its material provenance.
In short, Unique Elements was inspired by the convergence of natural material excellence, artisan handwork, and the desire to craft furniture that becomes a singular element in a refined interior.”
And what led you to choose Alicante for development and production?
“We selected Alicante, Spain, as our base of operations for several interlocking reasons. First, Alicante benefits from excellent logistics and infrastructure, including good access to international shipping, airports, and ease of transport for both raw materials and finished goods.
Second, the region offers a lifestyle and cultural milieu that aligns with our philosophy: a Mediterranean light, rich craft traditions, and a workforce accustomed to material-based manufacturing.
Third, Alicante’s creative and design-aware environment strengthens our brand’s positioning, allowing us to draw on local artisan talent and integrate ourselves into a design-sensitive ecosystem.
Fourth, being in Spain enables us to offer direct European production and responsive service to our clients across Europe, avoiding distant overseas manufacturing while maintaining premium quality.
In summary, Alicante offers the operational, cultural, and geographic advantages that align with our mission of handcrafted excellence and brand identity.”
It must have been a proud moment when you welcomed your very first (very satisfied) customer. Can you explain what that meant to you?
“Welcoming our first customer was a moment of profound humility and practical validation. In that moment, we moved from concept to delivery, and we experienced the satisfaction of seeing our work appreciated in its intended setting.
We were reminded that craftsmanship is not abstract—it is lived, seen and touched by a client. The constructive feedback and visible delight of the client reaffirmed our belief in our approach: the material, the finish, the form all mattered, and they mattered to someone beyond ourselves.
It felt not like an endpoint but rather the beginning of our commitment to uphold the same level of detail and integrity for every subsequent client.”
Building on that first customer, what would you say is your vision for Unique Elements?
“Our vision is to establish Unique Elements as a reference for handcrafted, high-end wooden furniture, in which every piece carries a unique material story, architectural precision, and exceptional workmanship.
We aim to ensure that our clients obtain not just furniture, but curated artefacts of fine woodcraft—table tops, custom furniture, singular timber selections—that fulfil both functional demands and aesthetic aspirations.
We are committed to a sustainable design ethos: selecting special woods responsibly, refining our production with minimal waste, and celebrating the longevity of craft rather than short-lived trends.
Ultimately, we aim to establish a brand that provides an integrated experience, spanning from material sourcing to design, production, end-customer delivery, and service—grounded in transparency, quality, and exclusivity.”
Turning to this year, where have you chosen to focus?
“This year, we have identified four key product groups—table tops, custom furniture, special wood accent pieces, and limited-edition collections—because each aligns with an aspect of our brand and operational strengths.
Table tops allow us to showcase rare and figured woods on a large scale, emphasising the material story and surface craft.
Custom furniture enables close collaboration with clients and interior designers, reflecting bespoke production in architectural interiors.
Special wood accent pieces (such as consoles, shelves or side tables) present opportunities for finishing refinement and small-run exclusivity.
The limited edition collections enable us to explore design innovation and creative departures within our sustainable design ethos, providing clients with a sense of rarity.
Focusing on these four groups helps us concentrate our resources, refine our craftsmanship, and develop a coherent brand offer rather than scattering across too many categories. It also enables us to build operational excellence, supply chain clarity, and a clear story for our marketing and clientele.”
Finally, what are your future plans for Unique Elements?
“Looking ahead, Unique Elements will continue to deepen its material sourcing network—securing more special woods, expanding ethically reclaimed selections, and refining our production methods to reduce waste and maximise finish quality.
We also plan to expand our online presence: a digital platform that enables clients to explore woods, finishes, bespoke configurations, and place orders or commissions seamlessly across Europe.
In Spain, we intend to establish a show space or atelier in Alicante, where clients can visit, view material samples, and engage with the craft process. Furthermore, we plan to collaborate with interior designers and architects to integrate our furniture into high-end residential and hospitality projects.
Over time, we may explore curated limited-edition capsule collections and partnerships with design-led brands, always preserving our handcrafted identity. In all of this, we remain grounded in our founding values—craftsmanship, exclusive materials, attention to detail—and our location advantage in Alicante will continue to anchor our brand.”
To fully appreciate the beauty of Unique Elements furniture, prospective clients are invited to visit their showroom between 10am and 2pm, Monday through Saturday, or by prior arrangement at other times.
