Our team

Karn is a maker through and through. He brings a clear, practical approach to the studio,built from years at the bench and a deep understanding of materials. He’s interested, sociable, and direct, with a way of working that keeps conversations focused and easy to engage with.
Craft sits at the centre of how Karn works, particularly with timber. He cares about how things are put together, how they feel, and whether they will last. He’s open to new tools and methods when they improve the outcome, and comfortable pushing ideas when the work calls for it.

Karn is generous with his time, both with the team and with clients. He’s closely involved as projects take shape, working through problems as they arise. Working with Karn feels purposeful and grounded, with real attention to detail.

Matt brings calm to the studio. He’s thoughtful, open, and steady, with a way of making people feel comfortable taking things on together. Conversations are clear and friendly, often fun, and grounded in care for the work and the people around it.
He’s willing to take on projects that feel uncertain or ambitious, trusting the team and the process. Experimental by nature, Matt is open to new ideas and quick to explore new tools or technologies when they genuinely serve the work. Decisions are shaped by a strong sense of ethics, with close attention to materials, longevity, and impact.
Under pressure, Matt listens, keeps things moving, and holds space for discussion without forcing outcomes. He’s drawn to work that lasts, particularly public projects people can live with and return to. Working with Matt feels open, confident, and full of possibility.

Ivan brings focus and persistence to the studio. He’s exacting and prepared to spend the time needed to get things right. His approach is systematic, with a strong work ethic and a willingness to go into detail where it matters.
He’s curious by nature and keen to keep learning, whether through new challenges, new skills, or a deeper understanding of how projects are structured and delivered. With a background spanning ecology, making, and business, he brings a clear view of the wider context around the work.
Principled and considerate, Ivan is conscious of the people involved in every project. He values fairness, transparency, and equality, both within the team and in how millimetre works with clients. Working with Ivan feels thoughtful and exacting, with space to learn and improve.
