0LLU – Furniture Making Business 

Starting 0LLU was one of my proudest achievements. It began as a simple idea: working with wood and stripping away old layers of paint. However, it quickly grew into something much bigger. I taught myself how to design, create, and finish furniture from scratch, transforming a small workshop into a full factory setup. From the spray booth to the packing station, every part of the process was built by hand, and soon I was shipping my pieces all over the country.

I worked with pine, crafting solid, honest furniture that people could live with and love. I secured a start-up loan from Virgin, got my products featured on Not on the High Street, and even opened my own shop. For a time, 0LLU was thriving. Then Covid hit, and everything changed. However, that experience shaped me. It deepened my love for design, craftsmanship, and the process of creating something tangible.
