seek
Inspired by the stories of makers lives, the skills of artisans, the beauty of interesting techniques and natural fibres and the mix of contemporary and traditional design, I seek out ‘few of a kind’ beautiful hand-made products from around the world showcasing products from my projects past and present
support
As part of my own design and marketing projects or in a consultancy role for international clients, I work closely with my network of crafts businesses helping to bring their products to market through a range of product design, research, marketing and business development ideas and projects.


style
I love to style and curate, to build collections around stories, and themes, creatively coordinating colour and design ideas across cultures, techniques, products to create an authentic yet common style
source
I source interesting few of a kind products from ethical fair trade producers promoting their products via pop-up showcase, sales events and exhibitions.
Please send any enquiries to aileen@foakcollections.com


storytell
I believe that what makes this concept and the product collections interesting are the stories behind them. I love the people and the products that I have worked with throughout the years, I love the stories that they tell, I love being creative and I am passionate about making a difference through my work.
sell
I promote few of a kind products to create wider markets for global artisans and craft designers, bringing the beauty of the hand-made direct to shoppers and retailers looking for something a little different.
I collaborate with venues, retailers and other crafts initiatives who share the foak aesthetic and social design ethos to create pop-up sales, exhibitions and sourcing events
