Joseph Walsh (born 1979)[1] is a self-taught Irish furniture maker and designer.

He was born in County Cork, where he established his studio and workshop in 1999.

This led to significant early commissions including various ecclesiastical clients, the Embassy of Japan and the National Museum of Ireland.

From these early years of experimentation and development, Joseph Walsh began to break the traditional rules of making in order to create the truly bold and expressive forms for which he is known today, realised in an ever-widening range of materials, including wood, resin, marble and bronze.

His achievements in design have been recognised by an honorary doctorate from University College Cork, a major commission for the National Gallery of Ireland and the acquisition of works for many major international collections, including most recently the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in Paris.Ayesha Sohail Shehmir Shaikh, "Design Miami/Basel 2019: Highlights From The Collectible Design Fair", June 11, 2019 [25] "Elemental Design", Aesthetica, 23 May 2019 [26] Mozez Singh, "This incredible cottage perched on Mumbai’s Juhu Beach speaks volumes with its design", Architectural Digest, January 14, 2019 [24] Mitchell Owens, "HOT SEATS", Architectural Digest, March 2018 [27] Mitchell Owens, "Joseph Walsh Gives Derbyshire Palace A Modern Update", Architecture + Design, February 27, 2018 [28] Raul Barrenche, "The Magical World of Joseph Walsh’s Wood Furnishings", Galerie, Winter 2017 [29] Mirror Mirror: Reflections on Design at Chatsworth House, 2023[30][31][32][33] "Joseph Walsh Studio- Limited Edition", (Ireland; Cork, Joseph Walsh Studio, 2020) [1]
