About Me… who am I?

Firstly, a big hello. Secondly, where do I start with this one? I am Jack, a proud Yorkshireman, or Jack D. March, as I am better known on Instagram. My background is in design; I graduated in 2012 with a BA Hons degree in Contemporary Craft and Design, where I specialized in ceramics and subsequently produced whimsical and outlandish tableware—teapots were my passion. At 23, I bought my first home solo, and my design skills were put to the test as I set about creating the home of my dreams on a Yorkshireman’s shoestring budget—all while documenting the journey online.

An apartment, my partner's former new build, numerous publications, and even a television appearance later, I am three years into renovating the Victorian townhouse my now-husband and I own in the centre of my beloved York. When I am not documenting the room makeovers, I am pursuing my other passions of traveling, thrifting, and upcycling.
