We’re delighted to share that Crofts & Assinder has been awarded the Design Guild Mark for Interior Design Elements, a recognition we’re genuinely proud to receive.

The award celebrates two collections designed by our Design Director, Zoran Matijevic: Fenchurch from our Style Guide range, and Skomer from our Special Works collection. Both are very different in character, but share the same foundation — considered design, precise craftsmanship, and a commitment to creating hardware that stands apart.

Fenchurch - Chic. Contemporary. Designer.

Fenchurch was conceived around a single compelling idea, a handle that reveals something new depending on how you look at it.

A series of alternating facets run across the surface, catching and shifting light as you move around the piece. It’s a design that makes an immediate impression, but one that continues to reward closer attention over time. Chic and contemporary, yet with a depth that feels considered rather than decorative.

Available in American Bronze, Brushed Satin Brass, Brushed Satin Nickel, and Chrome.

Skomer - precise, structured, and quietly spectacular.

Skomer draws its inspiration from architectur. Contiguous flat discs run the length of the handle, intercepted by a central hourglass silhouette that introduces a subtle but striking sense of depth.

It’s a design that doesn’t give everything away immediately; there’s a hidden layer of detail here that only reveals itself on closer inspection. As with the best hardware, the devil really is in the detail.

Available in Brushed Satin Brass, Matt Black, and Polished Nickel.

Receiving the Design Guild Mark for both collections is a proud moment for our team, and a reflection of the care and creativity that goes into everything we make.

A sincere thank you to our partners, collaborators, and wider community — your support continues to inspire what we do!
