Before and After: A Tub Chair

Before & After: A Potty Armchair

We are absolutely in love with our latest before and after - a bog standard navy blue armchair has been totally transformed by re-shaping the roll arms into a slick, contemporary style and re-upholstering it in 'Pots' by Jonathan Adler. A totally new lease of life!

Upholstered in Warwick 'Lustrell Nova' colour eggplant

Before & After: Parker Knoll

We have recently customised one of our shop floor Parker Knoll chairs for a client - taking it from this cotton beach stripe into a vibrant white and orange spot fabric called 'Chana' from Atelier Textiles. It looks so smart, finished off with a bit of piping, and a footstool that we've had made to match!

Mirror Wall - Before & After

 Last week...

This week!

Guys, you've stripped us bare! Guess you're all loving our vintage mirrors right now, so we are going to get some more in very soon!

Booth Seating - Before & After

Check out this fabulous 'before and after' of some booth seating that our upholsterer Geoff Fiebig has been working on this week. The original dark coloured leather was heavy and oppressive - especially in front of a window like this - but now look at how much the view is optimised and the area lightened considerably just by choosing a lighter, fresher coloured leather! The buttoning detail adds character and interest, and finishes the seating off perfectly. Oh, and how fabulous are the gloss white tiles all around!? We LOVE it!

Re-upholstered Dining Chairs

Here's another 'before and after' for your Saturday morning! Have a look at these seats that we've given new life using Warwick 'Bells Beach'.

Another gorgeous before and after transformation - one of the best parts of this job!

Before & After

 

 

This striking pair of chairs is looking for a new home! They come lovingly re-furbished with fresh black, lacquered timber work, and new upholstery - a fabulous pink and orange geometric stripe. They have a small footprint so would sit nicely in nearly any space. They could be yours today for $650 each!

before and after

This very cool wee pair was just completed for a client with some fabulous crocodile skin vinyl!

before and after

This wee beauty spent quite a bit of time as Sean's office chair... Until one day when it came apart...

But now it's been fully repaired and given a whole new lease on life in red vinyl with the Ingrid Anderson pohutukawa in a strip down the centre.

Pop in for a look, it's in store now!
