About Andy Knight

About company

Andy Knight Ltd are a specialist group of craftsmen and artists who have collaborated together for many years on one-off set construction and prop making projects, mostly for advertising photographers. This involves applying a great deal of lateral thinking and innovation to solve the problems of creating many weird & wonderful objects as well as more routine roomsets, designed in collaboration with art directors and set designers. These are made in a vast Aladdin's cave of a workshop and studio in a corner of central London. The skills that go into these projects range from specialist carpentry and metal fabrication to traditional scenic painting, and also involve more modern digital methods. All sorts of methods, techniques and materials are brought into use – usually for something completely different from the manufacturers intended purpose.
