working from home – making it work and launching a company
At The Helmm #1!
This is the first of a weekly vlog from Sam Cranwell on working from home, launching a business and getting out of the house!
This first episode is a bit of an intro to me, why one of the key successes to working from home is to get out of the house(!) and a bit of insight to what it’s like launching a new physical product.
Sam is Helmm's chief designer and inventor of our S-Desks and Laptop Stands.
Sam grew up working with wood in his Father's kitchen workshops but went on to study graphic design and after a few years working in London agencies set up his own graphic, exhibition and product design business in 2000. Gradually the business evolved into a digital agency but the calling to work with wood again was too strong and in 2013 Sam started designing furniture again in his spare time.
In 2015 his first concept prototypes were produced and now Sam is focussing on designing amazing furniture that improves the user's wellbeing and makes a design statement in any space.
Sam is husband to Kia, Helmm's marketing expert, and a devoted father. He likes to spend his spare time drawing, shooting video and photos and is a bit fanatical about bicycles.
