About Us

Kirralee & Co. We are a new Brisbane based sustainable design business, currently specialising in home accessories. I am the owner and designer, Kirralee Robinson. I am an ex-florist with a degree in visual art and I posess a severe addiction to making things with my own hands. Ash spent 10 years of his life as a builder and now fully supports the kids and I as a paramedic. With his tools and our powers combined, we are Kirralee and Co. The importance of Minimalism I worked as a trained florist for 9 years providing for functions, special occasions and weddings. Because of this time, my appreciation for individual flower stems has grown. I believe wholeheartedly in not imposing on nature's forms but rather supporting and enhancing it. As far as Kirralee & Co vessels go, less is definitely more. We attempt to complement nature's beauty with minimalistic lines so that the object and nature have a peaceful symbiotic relationship. We attempt to expose the stems as much as possible so the whole piece can be enjoyed. Function points to greater purpose As aspiring minimalists ourselves, we do not believe in buying for the sake of trends. This therefore influences our design choices. We make lifestyle pieces of functional sculpture which can change the way you decorate your home - and the way you live. Kirralee and Co vases are designed to be able to change according to occasion quickly and easily thus eliminating the need to consume when seasons or trends change. These are pieces that grow and change as you do. The vases work with one stem of flora which can easily be picked from your surrounding area. We encourage you to explore where you live and take note of the natural beauty already around you.

Thoughts on sustainability Our motivation to be a sustainable business comes from our desire to look after this planet. As a result, the concept of using what you have already, is first on our list. In early 2014 We were given three chairs from friends which were going to be passed on if we didn't take them. The chairs were wooden and had a beautiful curve to them. These chairs became our first hanging vessels which we still make today. I am captivated by furniture and the shapes it takes to suit our bodies and environments. My inspiration for each design comes directly from the furniture itself. I spend a lot of time mentally picturing it's forms, de-constructing it, then reconfiguring it to be something else. Using what you have takes patience and sometimes requires a lot of effort. However we believe the environmental and personal rewards easily outweigh this.
