Handcrafted by us

All of our art works are fully designed and made by us in our workshop in Lyall Bay. The design process starts with Aran in front of the computer for a few hours designing the art work from the contour information. Once he has created his virtual design and tweaked it for cutting, our trusty laser cutter does the grunt work of cutting the details to the highest precision. We then sand, stain, glue and frame all the little bits together, focusing on finishing each piece to the highest quality. Read more about how we make our art works here>>

Sustainability

Why should a small business put in the effort to consider the planet? Well why not, everyday we make choices that affect the planet and our future, whether we think about them or not. As the effects of global pollution start to show themselves both businesses and consumers are becoming more aware of how they can make better choices. Together we can all make a difference.
