Alumnus and Furniture Designer Martin Howlett talks about why he decided to study in Edinburgh and where his career has taken him since graduation. Name Martin John Howlett Degree Course Furniture Design Year of Graduation 2001 Your time at the University Image I choose Edinburgh mainly because it was the furthest place from where I lived. I wanted my University experience to be new and exciting and I felt this was the way to get that. To many memories to mention! Tell us about your Experiences since leaving the University My work at the moment is varied which keeps things fresh and exciting. I make one off pieces of furniture to commission and teach a number of evening courses at some local colleges. I write for the Furniture and Cabinet Making Magazine and I’m a committee member for the Young Craftsman of the year completion at the south of England show.
