The joy of being at home

With the weather (slowly) turning to more Autumnal vibes at last and the need to be home is paramount we are proud to extend our timber furniture to our curated home decor items .

Our highly considered range was borne from the desire to create elegant timely pieces that are not only durable but beautiful , as we firmly believe that every day is special and should be celebrated accordingly .

We make all our products onsite in our Brisbane Qld Workshop from solid timber using recylcled or plantation timbers.

With the richness of cambia, the warmth of Jarrah, the buttery smoothness of Oak and the lightness of Pine we create unique homewares that are simply not mass produced but created with the care and attention right here in Queensland .

The elegance of Mahogany

With its reddish brown hue that enriches over time, Mahogany Timber is the ideal choice for dining room furniture.

Its warm tones heighten the design aesthetic and impart a warmth and and ambience that only timber can supply.

The side table we recently custom made is a wonderful example of this.

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…
