Entry side tables
recycled black butt, red forest gum

‘Designed to be made in small production runs, this table was made from recycled building hardwoods. To bring a more contemporary feel, 10mm stainless steel round was used to hold the end caps in place and for the handle.’

Dining table and chairs
reclaimed flooded gum

‘My concept was to design a dining table and chairs that can be made in small production runs using mainly recycled hardwood, keeping in mind the timber to be used is no wider than 150mm and no thicker than 50mm. With a growing trend for apartment living the table size has been kept to a minimum, accommodating 4–6 people quite comfortably.
‘The main aim of this range of furniture is to produce fine contemporary furniture made from recycled timber allowing people to see that recycled furniture does not necessarily mean rustic or primitive furniture.’
