Custom making a solution ...

One of the many many (oh we could go on ) joys and advantages of custom making is that you will have exactly what you want and that includes the dimensions of the piece you are having made…

A beautiful example is this hoop pine console unit. Our client who is downsizing no longer needs the big entertainment unit and so a new piece was needed that would beautifully fill her new lounge room and accommodate all her media/tv requirements.

This classic style unit has been stained ( expertly colour matched to blend effortlessly into the existing furniture) to a deep rich mahogany

An elegant new addition to the home that provides function and style

A place for books

Being avid readers, we know all too well the problem of finding a suitable home for all the books we have collected over the years and do not want to part with.

It is a wonderful thing to pass them on to someone else to read #payitforward but there are numerous times and occasions when you do not want to part with them.

Art books for instance , often heavy and large are a must have for reference and to keep going back to time and again, coffee table books - for when the collection becomes too high to keep on the coffee table and of course well worn much loved fiction books that hold sentimental value.

Our client came to us with this conundrum , so many wonderful books but nowhere to store them and to reflect back on them when needed.

We designed this clean, streamlined bookcase to house such important items. Custom made to encapsulate the assorted heights and weights of different books.

Simple in design and colour so as to let the wonderful assorted colours of the books take precedence and be the show items as they rightly are…
