Shoreditch
Interior Designers
About us
Kasey Coory and Evan Schwarz, both New Zealanders, spent 12 years a piece living and working in London.
They co-shared a workshop in Hackney, East London for 5 of those years and decided in 2013 to begin a new venture in a familiar land. Two family relocations from the UK have facilitated the creation of Shoreditch Ltd, a furniture design and manufacturing company based on Waiheke Island, Auckland, NZ. Shoreditch have since opened a second workshop in Warkworth, north of Auckland.
Bringing together twenty years experience each in construction and design-related industries, they cover a huge range of professional work. Whether it be fitting out a boutique London store, manufacturing a bespoke piece of furniture for a discerning client, assisting others to complete their own projects or managing the construction of a commercial set covering 6 film stages at once, Kasey and Evan are well prepared.
Shoreditch utilise a range of high quality materials and processes to produce well designed, well made, functional products. They apply the same working principles to their domestic and commercial fit outs and projects.
Shoreditch believe the integrity of anything they produce to be very important. Hence they manufacture using primarily sustainable solid woods and plywoods, laminates, veneers and reclaimed materials and practice minimal waste working methods wherever possible.
“We pride ourselves on our work and the quality of the finished product. We put thought and consideration into every step of the process, attention to detail is without question and client satisfaction is critical to our long term success".
Process
How We Work
At Shoreditch we love working with clients on bespoke projects, be it kitchen cabinetry or bespoke furniture or interior projects.
We start with sketch proposals and design, samples, mock-ups and material selection - working with you to fully understand your requirements and apply our expertise and experience.
Together we create drawings. When you are happy with the drawings, we’ll sign them off for manufacture.
Throughout manufacture, components are repeatedly sanded and coated by hand to achieve a strong, durable high-quality finish. Once complete, components are assembled in our workshops to ensure disruption is minimal in your residence.
Installation
As we have manufactured to a high level of accuracy throughout the project, we see it necessary to be in control of our installation. Once the installation is complete, we undertake an inspection with you to ensure your satisfaction. Only then will we sign off the project.
