About Ben Morel-Allen
My Story
Like many people, I started working from home full-time in 2020. I tried to make my home working space a place I loved to come each day and which made me happy to spend time in. But even when I was happy with many of the big things – the desk, the chair, their positioning – there were things I couldn’t get right.
I loved my desk but all the accessories I found – monitor stands, stationary holders, headphone stands – were either cheap pieces of chipboard or really expensive and with a design I didn’t like.
At the same time I wasn’t finding my corporate job fulfilling. Creating value for shareholders wasn’t my life’s ambition. Instead I wanted to create something of my own, something I could take pride in.
After several years of searching for ways to make my working space feel truly like mine I decided to take my experience in marketing and a basic knowledge of SketchUp to scratch both these issues. I founded Narrow Hill Design to create the perfect working space for myself and, at the same time, for other people.
Life and Experience
I started my career working in a small marketing agency, with businesses large and small as my cleints. But most recently I’ve spent time at a large corporate, in their marketing department. I’ve been a Senior Marketing Manager and a Senior Analytics Manager while there.
I’m also a charity trustee, helping a local education charity to expand their reach in the local community and grow their volunteer base.
"I want to build products that help people who work from home love their office space."
