Furniture by Design
Built on the belief of traditional craft combined with innovative technology—our focus is on delivering a range that is thoughtfully crafted with minimum waste.
About Us
To create furniture that is meaningful and accessible to everyone.
We design and manufacture high quality furniture from a holistic, sustainable perspective—each piece reconciles ecological and social impacts within the current economic climate. We believe that the design and manufacture of our high-quality furniture is the result of dedication to quality, design integrity, decades of experience, craftsmanship and an unfaltering design to serve our customers.
Our Story.
Furniture by Design is a team of designers, crafters, upholstered and makers who work collaboratively to produce high quality, Australian made products at a price that represents value to the customer.
A dedication to quality, design integrity and an unfaltering desire to serve our customers.
Furniture by Design was born in 1983 after we realised that there was a gap in the market for Australian made, good quality, well-designed furniture at an affordable price. Utilising ethically sourced, FSC® certified timbers along with selectively harvested indigenous timbers we take raw materials and make them into locally made, high-quality sustainable furniture.
Positive Impact
As a values-driven business, we choose to partner with like minded clients who align with our core values and inspire each other to broaden our positive impact.
Quality & Value
We are passionate about producing quality products at a price that represents value to the customer to help elevate environments where we live and work.
Our Purpose
Sustainability informs everything we do.
Value and sustainability informs everything we do. From the local materials we source to the way we design our furniture, through to manufacture and delivery.
Featured Project
Ace Hotel—Flack Studio
From FBD specified pieces including Mellow and Otto to the custom built leather and fabric furniture, seat cushions and scatters, Flack Studio aced this hotel design.
“We found Furniture by Design to be very professional. We put the pressure on them and they easily delivered. International manufactures can be unpredictable and in a world where lead-times blow out Furniture by Design delivered on time, keeping us constantly updated along the way. It was important for our client to use local Australian made products and knowing we could drive down the road to the factory was comforting. I would happily recommend Furniture by Design.”
