Our Services
Designing, constructing and finishing all happen at Matter’s workshop located in Sydney’s Inner West. Predominantly, Matter works with solid timber and timber panels but will also use almost any material imaginable, sourced locally from Matter’s trusted suppliers.
Architects. Interior Designers. Builders.
Matter will manufacture to your supplied drawings, or liaise with you to design and document your project from the ground up.
Sharp blades. Deep knowledge. Perfect finishes.
Matter brings you the training and exactitude of hand-made, bespoke furniture-making – plus the efficiencies of computer aided machinery for larger projects when required.
Listening matters
Cabinetry, done beautifully, can transform a room. That’s why Matter spends more time with you up front, listens longer, asks more questions, and gets to know your vision in detail before returning with designs that delight, instead of disappoint.
Savings matter
Matter can streamline your project. Rather than getting involved after lock-up (and, sadly, for some home renovators, fixing imperfections left by others), it is far smarter to engage Matter at the early stages of your build. You can save on double-handling, lost time and hidden costs, and look forward to a trouble-free end result.
Happiness matters
“I had my heart set on a plywood kitchen with a very specific layout to suit my needs. I wanted a kitchen where every surface was only an arm‘s length away and every drawer was proportioned on its occupants. Ben and Harry, who are both charming and good communicators, worked extraordinarily diligently to bring my plans to fruition and suggested excellent improvements to the design along the way. Their attention to detail and quality is evident throughout my kitchen and it ties into my old workers' cottage seamlessly. I am in love with the result and my kitchen is a pleasure to use every day. As well as being wonderfully functional it is lovely to look at and easy to cook in.”

“Harry and Ben are brilliant artisans. I had a TV cabinet and bookshelf made by them. They designed the furniture themselves, and then helped me choose the type of wood I wanted. They explained the process to me and were upfront about costs and timing. They were also able to have custom-made steel brackets made for both. They were extremely professional, always checking in with me, providing me with updates, and always coming back to me if they needed me to make decisions. I will definitely use them again and would recommend them to anyone who is looking for beautiful custom-made furniture of outstanding quality.”

“What exceptional people and what an exceptional company. I couldn't rate Made to Matter higher! Their professionalism, communication, quality and service is far beyond any design or trades I've ever worked with. My kitchen is truly the most beautiful kitchen imaginable thanks to the craftsmanship and epic design and execution of Ben and Harry. We can't wait to work with them again!”
