Our client was looking to create a warm and timeless feeling in their bedroom and wanted a very supportive and comfortable headboard that created a feature rather than just a bedhead.

We created this look with the blue hue and installed all the lighting fixtures for easy access, and they are very happy with the final look, feel and comfort of the final product.

 

Restoring and polishing brings new life to well loved furniture

Our client wanted their well loved furniture restored to bring new life into their living rooms. We carefully rechromed, repolished, reparied and age-painted and varnished to remove the wear and tear and revive and refresh creating a fresh feel in the apartment.

On one piece the procedure was very time consuming due to the very flat and full grain finish.

Our team also aged the Lounge chairs and coffee table, in a blue/white wash finish.

Our team of French Polishers did an exceptional job and the client is very happy with the final results.

Our brief was to make a fun bed, in a bunk style, so a friend could sleep over and include a desk and a bookcase.

We designed the bunks, desk and shelves to all fit snug and create an environment that was fun and practical.

We utalised the window light for the deskspace and included shelves at the end of the top bunk and nooks for favorite toys.

The funky ladder stairs to the top bunk were carefully designed for safety and ease of use.

Our client was very happy with the end result, and their child just loves sleeping in their room now and can’t wait to have sleepovers with friends.

The greatest pleasure was seeing his face light up when we had finished creating his new stairway to heaven.

The doors in the house can make a statement. I have used a Quarter cut veneer with solid PNG Ebony with a 10% finish.
And with an added  black handle, the doors do make a statement when entering the house, and from viewing from inside the rooms.

This table was inspired by the sea, using hemp rope, solid red gum, and natural curves.
This table creates a beautiful flow and it does make a statement on the veranda, buy the sea or over looking a park, it works well for both. A glass top was added. This table is a real eye catcher.
