Booth Seating for City Night Club

We were asked by Wrightson Stewart Interior Designers to help them complete booth seating for a major club in the city. We had to work within a small area to create more seating. The back wall in like a wave wall, and the curve on each seat is slightly different so the booth flows within the space. The seats had to be soft, durable and supportive.

The lighting is controlled by an ipad from the booths, as the customer wishes.

Wrightson Stewart and the client are very happy with the Booth seating.

This custom piece was ordered by Highgate House for one of their clients and both are extremely happy with the end result. The client is overjoyed and the piece has become a ‘WOW’ talking point for their new home.

This custom booth is five metres in diameter, made in royal blue velvet with over 150 buttons. The frame is made from 25mm ply and the seats have three layers of foam, to give ultimate comfort. The curved back is made in one complete section, no joins were used.

This piece has given the home not just a place to relax, be comfortable and enjoy the company of others but it has given the home a unique special feel and richness to the space.

Bespoke Card Table – A dream come true

A card players dream table made to seat up to six people, each with their own drawer. The drawers were designed to be invisible when not in use and have inlay from Birds Eye Maple with Flame Mahogany and are felt lined.

The chairs have an ergonomically designed curve that make them comfortable enough to sit in for hours, and the legs are a fluted design.

Matthew and the client worked on the design together, as the client wanted a little bit of himself in the piece so it can be passed onto his children and grandchildren.

The top of the table is made up from book-matched Flame Mahogany , the centre piece is Birds Eye Maple , and the edge detail is Solid Mahogany. The chairs are also made from solid Mahogany.

The client spends many hours at this table happily playing cards on a table he has proudly helped design and watched grow from a dream into a reality.

TV unit with display

This unit is made to fit the room, with the owner needed special requirements for the speakers and sound equipment. The brief was to keep it in style of the house but make it look timeless which we achieved with the use of mixed timber and stain colours – the detail on the shelves gives a nice modern look.

The mix of timber includes French walnut and stained black oak (that retained the visible grain). The insides of the cupboards are also finished in French walnut and the moulding is hand-made and flows from the top section to the floor. Continue reading ‘TV & Wall Unit in Kangaroo Point’ »

This table, affectionately dubbed the wine glass table, was designed by the team at Finer Finishers and was a true pleasure to work on.

The inserts in the top are placed in a pie arrangement using White Zebra wood whilst the round edging of the table is Solomon Blackwood (a very heavy timber with a black/brown appearance), cut into pieces which follow precisely each pie section of the veneer. 3mm solid timber inserts of Solomon Blackwood run along each leaf of veneer meeting in the middle off the table.

These pieces were made from recycled Iron Bark solid timber. Iron Bark is hard to join and will pull apart unless the correct method is used. We have made these pieces for a high traffic work area. The clear finish is also a hard wearing surface.

Designed for a make-up artist, this custom designed vanity unit is set in a French Provincial style with custom hand-painted crackled finish and hand-carved mouldings with six secret drawers popping out directly under the mirror to hold all the required makeup tools and colours.

The secret compartments were designed to keep the classic style of the vanity unit, but to add a modern usability factor through the push-to-open system.
