Locally made pair of chairs

Alex from Westmere

Selling Two Kwila hardwood dining/desk chairs made from reclaimed timber locally sourced from an old home in New Zealand.

Inspired by the crossroads of modernism and craft, the design has been made locally made and designed, taking into consideration the limited supply of materials at hand.

These two chairs are one of a kind, utilising old kwila sourced from a New Zealand Villa.

The kwila had been in the house for over 40 years and was salvaged for this project.

Slightly inclined backrest to provide comfort to the user. The chairs are slightly smaller than an average chair and would suit a dwelling of a small home/ office/ meeting space/ gallery.

Each chair will have foam floor protectors on the base, both to prevent scuffing and protect the wood itself.

Price: $600

Poll: Should complete designs be shared with the public, or should the community help shape the designs from the start?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Post recently shared an opinion piece on the Harbour Crossing and why a more democratic approach might be needed 🚗🚲👟

While most decisions sit within the political arena, many organisations—like NZTA—manage long-term projects that go beyond party lines. Politics can sometimes disrupt progress, and the next Harbour Crossing is a big decision that will affect all Aucklanders.

We’d love your thoughts: Should near-complete, shovel-ready designs be shared with the public, or should the community have a hand in shaping the designs from the start?
