02 8774 8888

Chris has extensive experience in furniture design, interior design and specification sales.

What inspires you?

Architecture and design are close to my heart. I have always enjoyed the sale of products to designers more than the design process on its own.

Your favourite product and why?

Classic Plaza Seat. Versatile, practical, good-looking and a timeless product.

The seats can be modified to suit any need, such as DDA compliance, external power supply for students at Sydney University, and any installation situation.

Five years on from installation: Classic Plaza Seats at Mission Dolores Park, San Francisco.
