Robert of Ingrained Culture - What does he make?

I make highly personalised house name signs, many include hand painted full colour illustrations, some have a sculptural element. I offer my clients a unique design service through video which they get deeply involved with and my clients receive regular video updates as I make their sign which all leads to a fun exciting and efficient experience and it's all included in the price.


I also make business and commercial signage, that often include logos and slogans etc. I use the power of Art for the commercial advantage of my clients. It's easy to become 'sign blind' but I aim for my signs to make you stop and look. All are made exclusively from 100% legal and sustainable Grown in Britain wood.


I am proud to offer products that are heavily made and robust and offer credible and practical Eco-friendly alternatives to the use of finite materials. Ingrained Culture has a very low carbon footprint. All my signs shout their natural qualities and draw attention to the contemporary Eco-friendly values that have gone into their manufacture.


As well as sign making I make bespoke garden and memorial sculpture, Public Art too. I offer 2020s values for example, the use of bronze in sculpture was perfect for Victorian times of heavy industry and Gothic splendour, the use of concrete and steel in sculpture was perfect for modernist times and science fiction, the use of plastic and acrylic in sculpture was perfect for times of oil and gas dominance but today, those materials are seen by many as irresponsible. I offer natural innovative wooden sculpture that is suitable for permanent outside installation and seen by many as both responsible and cutting edge.
