Some custom WIPs of late
1) wall light by @quest___studio with official client feedback noting “we like this one because of the lumps and bumps”
2) a bench seat waiting to be coated, fit off its decorative inlay, and unite with its seat pads for the entry in a special art deco home by @studioblank.blank
3) super ambient table lamp adapted as a wall light in a new oxblood colourway by @space_man.studio
The second life of furniture is a guiding value for us. The desk at Antinous exemplifies this.
In this particular space, the desk had to offer an ergonomic computer-based work environment as well as a seated meeting table, suitable for 3 people. Beyond this use, we anticipated this to have a dual purpose as a dining table or as a piece to anchor a generous foyer entry.
Being made of varying lengths and angles, with a slightly boomerang-like overall shape, and being notably smaller on one end is surprisingly what makes this such a flexible table for the other uses. Because it doesn’t have 4 strict sides, it lends itself to being placed on an angle (as seen in this project) and therefore can be made sense of if placed in less traditional locations or applications.
Where there are smaller lengths on a particular angle, we ensured they’re still comfortable enough for a person to dine at, while also not being on too extreme of a bias to promote bad body language or social exclusion. Clever leg placement with discreet cable management meant we didn’t need to do a cut out for power through the top which is often the thing that limits a desk to a single purpose.

Recent WIPS, samples galore, prototypes, happy client snaps and clients across borders doing their homework. Excited to see some of these ideas materialise over the coming months
Installs going well into dusk last night at Clinica Lase in Carlton. Extremely impressed by the team involved in this Easter long weekend glow up - only @crystal_patel__ could pull this off in 4 days!

The new wall paint at this workplace creates the perfect hug of colour at our recently completed workspace project. The collection of art is a mix of newly sourced local artists alongside a meaningful collection of existing pieces we helped frame and place. Our clients existing collection included weavings from our pacific island neighbours, a Jackson Pollock skateboard deck, and film photographs taken by our client on a road trip through Syria and Lebanon a few years ago. The photos depict towns and building that sadly no longer exist. We are proud to have assisted our client in finally getting these printed, framed and sitting proudly in their chambers.
As the year draws to a close we’ve been reflecting on what makes this work so truly special - our relationships.
To our incredible clients, it’s been a joy to walk alongside you as your projects come to life. Thank you for trusting us, we’re endlessly grateful.
To our supportive suppliers and creative collaborators- we’ve absolutely loved working with you all and can’t wait to create even more beautiful projects together next year.
Our studio will be taking a short break from sharing content over the holiday period to relax, re-energise and return fresh in 2026. See you next year!

The @verzelloni_official ‘Zoe’ chairs via @stylecraftfurniture were the perfect low slung seating option - structured enough to offer support but giving strong beanbag vibes and the @normanncph ‘Bit’ stools champion the homes playful theme.
