The Creative Mind
​
Curious Tales is the coming together of objects, materials and ideas in the form of furniture, graphics and homewares. Every piece of timber has its own story and history, we look to pay homage to, and reinterpret that story into realised pieces of beautifully designed and crafted furniture for the home.
The driving force behind Curious Tales is local Canberra resident Pete Bollington who brings together a background in Interior design, fine furniture manufacturing and graphic design, Pete seeks to reinterpret everyday objects in a new fashion and create new and engaging designs for the home.
Curious Tales can offer bespoke furniture and designs to compliment any interior space. From one off pieces to full furniture suites, we have the 'know how' to solve your furniture needs. Using a combination of traditional joinery techniques and contemporary design aesthetics, you are sure to have a piece of furniture that will not only compliment your own style but will last for generations to come.
