When it comes to designing and building furniture Al and I always consider practicality, functionality, longevity and aesthetics. Essentially.. we want our furniture to do more than just look good. And from our sales it shows that our customers too are looking for multifunctional furniture, in particular our drawer beds that capitalise on the prime realestate that often goes unused OR not used well.

For this bedroom style we were inspired by the flowering wattle blossoms and how they pack a punch of colour on a gloomy winter’s day. So when Al finished making this custom Bookshelf Bed and matching Lowboy Chest of drawers it only felt right to go bold and style using a mix of fun colours, textures and prints.

It's not every day that we get asked to build a black bed so when we were approached by clients from Tasmania to create a custom black Bookshelf Bed of course we said yes. Of course we had to bring it inside and style it up in our home studio. We was so curious to know what it was going to look like when styled and we absolutely love how the bed fades into the background and all of the bed linen and styling items just pop!

Nestled amongst the gumtrees in the beautiful home of Phoebe and Chris lives our Bookshelf Ledge Bed, styled to perfection with bold colours and lush wares.

The cot was the final piece of furniture we wanted to make for Goldie’s Nursery - we were sure that she would arrive before it was finished… just as I saw the final pieces come together the contractions started. The next day I laboured at home while Al sealed the cot and we we had it set up in her nursery just in time for her arrival.

We worked with Chris and Phoebe to create a custom desk and bed for the perfect working-from-home set up!

You can find all of the items used to style this bedroom with links and I’m pretty proud that the majority of artists, authors and business owners featured are women.

For this bedroom styling I had picked up some beautiful orange banksia flowers, I wanted to bring out the bold colours and create a really fun and fresh feel that highlighted the beauty of the natural materials used - timer, linen, jute rug and handmade ceramics.

I had the opportunity to catch up with Steph for a coffee a couple of weeks ago at my local Common Ground Project, where we chatted all things business, community and lifestyle. Stephanie filled me in on her latest series titled 'Lento' which was captured in the vibrant town Lagos in southern Portugal's Algarve region (stops to check flights). Lento translates to 'slow' in Portuguese which Steph felt was a fitting title that reflected the vibes she had from her stay.

This week I’m sharing with you the story of Sophie Gandar the designer behind a new brand that’s just popped up on my radar. Meet MILOU MILOU; luxurious, zero waste, 100%, pure flax bed linen - custom made to order just for YOU. Now if that sentence alone doesn’t get you excited I don’t know what will.

I wanted to share Louise’s story because I’m really inspired by creatives who find their niche and then do it really successfully. I had a feeling that Louise’s story would be an interesting one and I’m so pleased that we can share it with you all. We hope that reading this inspires you to keep trying new things, follow your passion and hone in on your strengths.

We absolutely love seeing creatives pursuing their passions and succeeding - and someone who’s doing just this is local watercolour artist Natalie Martin. I had the opportunity to sit down with Nat in her studio as discuss all things creating, running a business and how she’s contributing to building the arts community on the Surf Coast.

I had a chat to Jamie about her latest collection “Honey Hole” - a series of artworks that we’ve featured in many of our photoshoots, it looks like as much as we both love the city we’ll always love the feeling of dirt between our toes.
