{"title":"Robin McLellan","description":"Robin McLellan began his deVOL career as a placement student and his willingness to turn his hand to anything, passion for period furniture and lifelong interest in carpentry have allowed him to completely transform the way deVOL manufactures its furniture. Since becoming Managing Director in 2011, Robin has introduced state of the art machinery and methods into the workshops, which have enabled deVOL to grow exponentially. Robin has an understanding and love of traditional techniques and never loses sight of the importance of these, but knows just how to use them in a modern way to produce a beautiful product efficiently and accurately. When Robin is not setting up workshops or dealing with the day-to-day business of running deVOL, he can be found in the workshops designing and making prototypes, welding metal or turning wood. He is the force that drives deVOL each and every day.","products":[{"product_id":"the-devol-kitchen-designing-and-styling-the-most-important-room-in-your-home-hardcover","title":"The Devol Kitchen: Designing and Styling the Most Important Room in Your Home - Hardcover","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eA stunningly photographed guide to designing and styling your kitchen, the most used and important room in the home, that showcases the philosophy and fundamentals of deVOL's iconic values \u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003e\"When it comes to thoughtful craftsmanship and bespoke kitchen design, deVOL is the benchmark.\" \u003c\/i\u003e- Joanna Gaines \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003edeVOL is much more than a kitchen company.
