✨ A perfect balance of elegance and function ✨
This study combines sleek design with smart use of space, creating a room that’s both beautiful and highly practical.
The Duco White Satin doors and drawer fronts feature a recessed chamfered top edge detail, offering a clean, streamlined look that reduces the visual clutter of handles and enhances the overall sophistication of the space.
The work surfaces were specifically laminated to imitate the duco finish.
Thanks to Leon at LC Sprayworx for the high quality duco finish as always.

✨ It’s been a while since I’ve shared some of our work — this year has been wonderfully busy and full of meaningful projects. I’m deeply grateful for the amazing clients I’ve had the privilege to work with, and for all the kind referrals that keep inspiring new creations.

One of the standout highlights of 2025: Gabriella Mulligan Kitchen 🏡
- Elegant Cotton Satin Duco cabinetry
- Solid Oak countertops with matching floating shelves
- Recessed LED lighting to showcase the shelves
- A sleek pocket-door coffee station
- Abundant practical drawers and a side-strip wine rack
- Clever use of every angle with open feature shelving

This open-plan design came together beautifully — functional, stylish, and full of character👌

Thank you Henry and Nandy for your hospitality, and accommodating some late hours to reach the final outcome and make this the perfect homely, warm, and inviting kitchen. We'll done on your space changing alterations in your new home.

I do what I love...and love what I do.
This project has certainly been one of the hi-lights of this year....thank you Michelle.
3,2 meter Poplar entrance dresser with wine display, cupboards and drawers.
It was specifically designed with 4 components, as to accommodate the awkward angle of stairs through the entrance of the clients house: 3 sections of units, and then the long top. I also captured elements of an existing piece of furniture, to blend in with the feel of the decor.
Every piece of furniture I make, is crafted with passion and personality, and uniquely designed according to the clients requirements and space....this one turned out so well👌

It's been a while since I updated my gallery...I've been so busy designing and installing gorgeous kitchens.
This one was such a creative project Simmonds, and I thoroughly enjoyed every unique aspect of the kitchen.
2 tone colours of Cotton (for the main units) and Shadow Blue (for the island feature), with Rubberwood counter top, and porcelain slab for the island, with mitred brass trim.
Participating features included: Pocket door system on a readed glass framed doors for everyday appliances, shift out grocery rack, bi-fold doors on laundry appliance unit...who would guess the appliances were so well hidden in a decorative unit. Loads of deep drawer space for practical use, and open shelving on the lounge facing side of the island for those sentimental crockery items.
It was well thought out by the client, and the designing and installation worked out so well in this gem of a cottage.

This has been a hi-light project for me this year...1200w x 2100h arched solid Meranti gate with a lazer cut steel eagle in a round band as the centre piece @ Theo Rossouw
Thank you Evan @ EvaMetal Rsa for the quality fabrication of the steel work👌, and Ticktin Timbers for the great selection and machining of timber.
From design...to a curved template for the precise router of each arch, accurate jointing, dowels and recessed bracing, with careful engineering for stability and longevity...it all made the installation go according to plan.
44mm thick frame with tongue and v-groove vertical slats, and heavy duty double brass hinges to carry the weight, with electrical wiring fed through the centre of each slat from hinge side to the lock side...I do so love a challenge.
It turned out great...and certainly the best looking gate in the neighbourhood😉

From 3D design to client lounge @ Heather Robertson-Johnson ...this is the matching big brother dresser, to the 3 younger round table sisters, made earlier this year.
The drawers on this dresser open both sides, with a ball-bearing catch in the middle to centralize closure...practical👌
The family is complete...well, maybe a designer "captains chair" for Bruce Johnson would be the father 😉

I so enjoyed this project...outdoor shed @ Andrew Hylton Christie
I may have over spec'd on the construction, but that shed ain't going to budge!
From 3D render to completion.
Bottom framework of 38 x 76 construction,with 6 x 300mm legs sealed with bitumen, cemented into the ground, with a 18mm marine ply platform, pre-assembled lapboard cladding onto 38 x 38 batons, roof struts, and galvanized roof sheeting with 50 x 50 aluminium L-profile finishing barge edge. All timber CCA treated, and then well sealed with a tinted deck varnish.
Turned out great👍

Lovely little accent piece @ Sarah Floor:
50mm laminated Kiaat half moon floating shelf, with a slight stain to blend the light and dark grain.
I gave it a modest curve lip underneath as a feature...using the table saw, with a pivot point for an even profile.
Came out great👌

Furniture French Antique make-over @ Rob Willis.
Light shade of Taupe base coat chalk paint, with dark brown wax to tone in with the existing Antique Oak, and a clear coat to seal off - water based sealer as not to change the colour of the new effect (which oil based sealers tend to do)
My course in Paint Technique at Boston House School of Design many years ago has certainly paid off over the last few years...and this project turned out great👌
These beautifully hand crafted pieces of furniture were crying out for a new and slightly more modern look, to lighten up the living spaces.
Paint techniques are certainly becoming very trendy, especially with furniture with detailed mouldings and needing a fresh look.
No need to get rid of old furniture...why not spruce up your existing pieces, that have sentimental value.

A lovely outdoor project over the last 2 days @ Rob Willis.
New arched shaped entrance gate, and a new entrance staircase balustrade, shaped and sloped with the edges of the curved build.
Meranti, painted White, with black hardware, to create a new and welcoming modern look.

What a lovely project this was @ Dhevan and Sue Pillay....such hospitable clients.
Scope of work...additional cupboards in 2 bedrooms, to match with existing, with routered pattern doors, hand rolled Pure White doors, and matched handles, mitre detailed cornice around the top fillers.
Turned out great.. just as if it was always there.
Oh how I do love what I do best :)
