Bedroom Design That's Practical, Functional and Beautiful
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.
Styling with Bold Colours and Prints In Your Bedroom
For this bedroom style we were inspired by the flowering wattle blossoms and how they pack a punch of colour on a gloomy winterโs 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.

Black And White Bedroom That's Far From Boring
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!

Southside To Bells Beach Walking Track
Nothing fills up our cup more as a family than heading out for a walk together. The track from Bells Southside to Bells Beach is one of our favourites. For anyone searching for a good dose of nature this is it, itโs usually pretty quiet - maybe because itโs not suitable for pramsโฆ so get your front packs on mummas and pappas and enjoy!
