Side tables punch above their weight in terms of functional and aesthetic contribution to a setting.

All of our side tables are made to order in Auckland in the material and finish of your choice. This Jax side table has an Essentially Grey honed marble tabletop inlaid into a medium Bronze metal base. It has a strong presence while still portable and easily paired with other furniture.

If you need custom-made side tables delivered before Christmas, you still have a couple of weeks to finalise the details and get it underway for your project.

Need an extra bed for extended family & friends in the summer holidays?

We've designed our new Barsa sofa bed with those scenarios in mind.

The Barsa sofa bed has a compact footprint making it ideal for apartments, second living spaces or home offices. The softly padded frame and carefully selected cushions create comfortable seating to compliment the award-winning sofa bed mechanism inside.

The long seat cushion extends the sofa visually and is easily removed to access the bed mechanism. The back cushions are fixed to the frame and can remain in place when the bed is in use.

The Barsa sofa bed has just arrived at our showroom for your viewing pleasure.

We designed the Cleo armchair with a host of functions in mind. The compact footprint and open style of the Cleo chair gives it suitability ranging across living spaces, apartments, bedrooms, home offices as well as commercial interiors.

The Cleo chair has a fine architectural profile blended with inviting comfort. The round steel base and sculpted oak arm rests accentuate the soft crowning on the cushions.

Made in Auckland, the Cleo chair can be personalised with your choice of fabric, stain and powder-coat colours.

Rod getting his head into another exciting project.

It's always fun working through the floor plans and furnishing concepts for a new build. Getting involved early gives us the opportunity to problem solve with designers and their clients to create homes that are truly personalised.

Designing our furniture in-house and making it to order Auckland allows us to create custom options that are individual to the client's taste and lifestyle.

That's always a creative challenge we both enjoy & embrace!

More custom headboards on there way.

These American Oak headboards are all set to be stained and lacquered. They will be fitted with upholstered panels inserted in the upper section and be wall mounted. Power points and light switches will be fitted.

Making our headboards in Auckland gives us the flexibility to tailor them to your room and to create something truly personal.

Can't wait to see them finished - designed & made in around eight weeks!

Auckland's getting its mojo back!

There was a buzz in the air this weekend - despite the inclement weather. We joined the throngs soaking up the atmosphere in the central city yesterday.

Commercial Bay's Solstice celebration of fashion & food drew plenty of enthusiastic onlookers.

Wind and drizzle didn't dampen the queues lined up to get a first day saunter around the new Faradays luxury department store.

The City Rail Link was shipping folks from A to B with super slick efficiency.

Ponsonby Central diners got to enjoy the new covered al fresco dining alley ways ... and desert lovers queued patiently to indulge in Yomi's tempting frozen yoghurt delights.

Such a positive vibe in the air - go Auckland!

Atelier Textiles is featuring our Gina modular sofa in their front window.

Made to order in Auckland, the Gina can be customised to your space in the fabric of your choice. This Gina is upholstered in Himalayan Beaver by Fabricut.

If you're visiting Atelier's Parnell showroom, try it while you're there. The internal back is padded with feather and the tiered foam seats are luxuriously soft to sit in to.

The Gina is also made as a corner sectional sofa as we have displayed in our showroom. Let us know if you'd like us to design a Gina to fit your spatial plan.

If your wanting a Gina sofa made for delivery pre-Christmas, please order in the next few weeks to ensure that we can meet your timeline.

Why shouldn't your clients have access to a sofa that perfectly matches the scale and design of their room?

We create our sectional sofas with optimal layouts and dimensions tailored for your specific floor plan. This is one of the advantages of designing them in-house and making them right here in Auckland.

Our design process involves creating pieces like the Nazare sectional sofa in configurations we believe will suit your space and the intended use of the sofa. You supply your preferred fabric, and we will customize it for you.

We offer a broad selection of sectional sofa designs for you to explore. Feel free to visit our showroom located at The Foundation, 20 Titoki Street in Newmarket.
