Hayden Mackenzie – Upholstery, Worshipful Company of Upholders

Hayden actively contributes ideas, engages in discussion during team meetings and within the workshop and he approaches new projects with excitement rather than reluctance. His sustained motivation and positive mindset to improve his skills, combined with his willingness to go the extra mile, enables him to remain solution-oriented. Hayden’s healthy respect for historical upholstery, keenly observed detail, workmanship and reporting, so critical to conservation and restoration, has seen him work sympathetically on the Royal Collection’s upholstered furniture which stands to benefit.
