Sustainability
We're serious about sustainability.
That means we make sure your furniture is made from FSC certified timber, and where possible, products are recycled and recyclable. And we always supply high-quality, durable products that are better for the environment and improve our carbon footprint.
But we want to do more – more for you and more for the environment. That’s why we not only source furniture that will last but also design highly adaptable, bespoke products that keep your furniture looking and feeling fresh long into the future.

Associate Director & Head of BTR
Emma joined The Furniture Practice in 2013 and set up our Build to Rent team in 2018. She balances the commercial aspirations of our clients with creative design solutions that maximise their investment and that residents love.

When she’s not looking for new ideas and designs for our clients, she can be spotted wandering the Hackney canal paths with her dog, Twiggy, or eating her way around Broadway Market.

Eve Salmons
Eve Salmons
Design Assistant
After graduating from Birmingham City University with a degree in Interior Architecture and Design, Eve focused most of her degree on FF&E –TFP’s build to rent team was a natural fit.
Eve is always on hand to support Zainab at all stages of the design process –whether that be producing design packs for schemes, space planning or show flat dressing.
In her spare time Eve is a passionate supporter of her local football team, the Cobblers, which unfortunately often leads to disappointment as opposed to celebration.
