Pezzo Console Table
Pezzo Console Table bridges traditional craftsmanship with contemporary sculptural expression. The pezzo series of tables and storage expresses a balance of soft, curving forms - with the rigidity and refinement of hard materials. The metal clad sides frame the surface while custom handmade ceramic tiles celebrate their subtle imperfections, variation, and sheen.
The series sought to create a contemporary design language that is minimal yet expressive, bringing together craft, modularity, and modern sensibility in one cohesive system. More

Flou Console Table
Flou Console Table reimagines the often overlooked byproducts generated during the furniture manufacturing process at our production units. Rather than discarding these remnants - wooden shavings, metal shavings and boilo-board fragments - we chose to preserve them through the medium of resin, a material that freezes time.
In the flou series, encased within clear or tinted resin, these byproducts are transformed into quiet artefacts, offering stillness and a renewed sense of purpose. Flou is not just a series of furniture, but a reflection on material memory, renewed value, and the beauty of pause in a fast-moving world. More

Miami Pool House
A successful Washington D.C. entrepreneurial bachelor had the vision to buy a historic home in Miami Beach, Florida. Built in 1937, this Mediterranean Revival estate was purchased at auction for $8 million, at which an additional $32 million was invested for a "renovation," putting his total outlay to $40 million, making it the most expensive "redo" to anyone's recollection in Miami history. One of the property's unique features is the pool house, a pagoda-like building reminiscent of the Katsura Imperial Villa in Japan. The Banker Wire woven wire mesh contributes to the design of the pool house as a foundation for luxury decor.

299 King
King Street, our new multi-residential project in Melbourne’s West end, responds to the presence of nearby Flagstaff Gardens, Melbourne’s oldest park, by intertwining local stories to represent the origins and future of the precinct. In the mid 19th century, this part of the city was Melbourne’s flourishing commercial centre: a diverse urban precinct home to the Indigenous Kulin nation, Chinese immigrants enticed by the Gold Rush as well as settler populations. This project embraces the distinctive elements of this site-specific identity, creating a thoroughly local architectural narrative.
Like the imposing flagstaff erected on the site to communicate between the town and the port, King Street will anchor the West end&rs... More
