Design and sustainability pioneers Marie Cudennec Carlisle and Oliver Waddington-Ball opened the doors to Goldfinger at the foot of Trellick Tower in 2013. Named after Ernö Goldfinger — the infamous architect of our Grade II listed Brutalist home and inspiration for Ian Fleming’s notorious Bond villain — Goldfinger founders decided to take its literal meaning as guiding inspiration: ‘the material we touch, we turn to gold’.
Goldfinger is a social enterprise that creates sustainable furniture and objects. Since its launch, Goldfinger has partnered with brands such as Tom Dixon, Arup, John Lewis and Whistles, as a well as independent brands and artists who share their ethos.
The Goldfinger Academy is the teaching arm of Goldfinger and offers courses in sustainable woodworking and craft, to educate people of all ages and backgrounds, from curious beginners to aspiring artisans. This includes fee-paying workshops, subsidised community workshops, and an apprenticeship programme for NEETs (Not in Education, Employment or Training). Everything they do is guided by our passion for the circular economy and an inclusive community.
Goldfinger was nominated for the Social Enterprise Firm of the Year 2019 at the Evening Standard Business Awards; CEO and co-founder Marie Cudennec Carlisle was nominated for the Natwest Everywoman Awards 2020.
