At WAWA, we pride ourselves on creating original, bespoke, and designer sofas and chairs that blend style, comfort, and functionality. Our journey began in the late eighties when our founder, Richard Ward, set up his workshop in a converted Victorian warehouse in the heart of Shoreditch, London. With his background in sculpture and filmmaking, Richard brought a unique approach to furniture design, combining traditional craftsmanship with modern materials and innovative designs.
