What do you guys prefer - Australian made craftsma

What do you guys prefer - Australian made craftsmanship or international design?! 🤷⁠
⁠
We honestly find this such a tough choice to make as we love so much about both! Whether its the sophistication of a crafted Italian piece or the detail of a custom handmade local design....they both have so much beauty 🤤⁠
⁠
But it's probably more important now, than ever before to support the local guys! We love specifying Australian made and are definitely aiming to make even more of an effort to select from local manufactures and artisans!

How is it almost the start of June?! 😲⁠

I know we always say we can't believe how quickly the weeks are flying by, but honestly how are they going this damn fast?!⁠
⁠
We had yet another busy week here, with some large projects going into documentation, smashing out our award entries for the @kbdi.org.au and prepping for our big home move with the kids (might be a clue to an exciting announcement we will be sharing with you all soon...)

Any one else not quite ready for weekends to go back to normal?! 🤷⁠

Have really come to love these relaxing at home weekends! Getting jobs done around the house, loads of new tv series, enjoying home cooked meals and experimenting with a touch too much cocktail making!! (although is there such a thing? 😂)⁠

This week has been almost as huge as the last, and we couldn't be more ready to bring back cocktail Fridays here in the studio! 😂⁠

Just about ready to dive into this luxurious bed for a morning sleep in!⁠

Bring on another Monday!! 🌟⁠
⁠
We had an incredibly big week last week in the studio, and have another huge one in store this week with 2 project handovers, another photo shoot and furniture install, design presentation and a hell of a lot of meetings! ⁠
⁠
But to be honest we wouldn't have it any other way!!! ⁠
As we were all saying as out motto in the studio last week - "I'm always better when I'm busy" 👏

Happy weekend everyone ☀️⁠ ⁠ What has ever
