We prioritize both the aesthetics and functionality of our pieces, valuing durability, sustainability, and comfort.
Our Pergola systems and our Aluminium outdoor furniture frames are all made with powder-coated aluminium. We chose these materials as they are modern, lightweight, anti-corrosive and have limitless styling applications. This means not only can you have gorgeous outdoor styling, but you can leave your Outdoor furniture and Pergolas outside in the elements with the confidence they will keep their good looks for many years to come.
Powder coatings contain no solvents and release little or no amount of volatile organic compounds (VOC) into the atmosphere, which is good for your health and the earth.

Whitewashed teak wood adds a timeless and
elegant look to the natural beauty of hardwood
furniture and spaces.This technique involves
applying a thin, translucent layer of white paint
or a whitewash solution to the surface of the
teak wood, resulting in a rustic appearance that
retains the wood's grain and texture while
achieving a soft, weathered charm. This method
combines both the durability of teak with a fresh
coastal appeal, making it a popular choice for
those seeking a blend of style and functionality
in their interior or exterior spaces.
A-grade teak wood is known for its unparalleled
quality, making it the epitome of excellence in
the world of timber. Often referred to as
first-grade teak," this wood is distinguished by
its dense grain patterns, rich golden-brown hue
and remarkable resistance to decay and pests
A-grade teak is primarily sourced from mature
teak trees, ensuring that it's both strong as well
as durable. Versatile and easy to work with,
A-grade teak is the preferred choice for
premium furniture, yacht decks, and luxurious
outdoor spaces.
