Built this Way

Built This Way, co-founded by Rhubi Worth and Jo Myles, stands as a testament to the power of passion, diversity, and craft in the often traditional and underrepresented fields of construction and timber-craft industries. This pioneering collective emerged from a shared desire to build a visible network of queer and trans makers, whose talents and perspectives have been historically marginalized in these trades. Rhubi and Jo, with their remarkable design direction, have lent their expertise to a diverse array of projects, spanning both commercial and domestic realms. Notable projects in their portfolio include a transformative office fit-out for Galop, an LGBT+ domestic violence and hate crime charity. They also lent their craft to the Vagina Museum, creating a space that highlights gynecological anatomy and societal issues, demonstrating their commitment to progressive design. The driving force behind Built This Way is Rhubi Worth and Jo Myles. Rhubi, with a background in architecture and community engagement, brings a keen eye for modern design and efficient material use. Jo's journey from sculpture and painting to bench joinery and fine furniture exemplifies their versatility and dedication to craftsmanship. Together, they form a dynamic and complementary partnership, making Built This Way a brand that is not just about construction but also about building connections and representation.
