Martin Davis

Martin Davis designs and makes one-off commission pieces of contemporary handmade furniture for private and business clients. He believes that in making successful contemporary furniture one must address craft and design with an equal level of respect and skill. His furniture is handmade and built to last for generations, displaying traditional joinery techniques in contemporary ways. It is intended to evoke a response in the viewer, to tell a story. The primary materials used are Australian hardwoods. Timber is always hand selected and a great deal of time is spent ensuring the qualities of the specific pieces of wood are incorporated into the design of the piece. Martin Davis' furniture appears in collections in Australia, Japan and the USA.
