global recession hits G&G

Gravity and Grace no longer will have a retail presence when the lease on our showroom runs out on January 9th. Fear not however as G&G will maintain an online presence and establish an online lifestyle shop. Watch this space.

We offer a range of smaller, European design brands to the Australian market. Some are long established and some quite recent arrivals, showcasing work by upcoming and established international designers. All these brands share the same passion and enthusiasm that we do for contemporary design allied with functionality and durability. These designs will work equally well within a domestic or commercial setting.

We will offer a range of high quality homewares and accessories from around the word. All share the same design ethos as our furniture. We will continue to offer a service allowing access to the furniture from our suppliers such as David Design and Quodes

Gravity and Grace is a design store in the European mould, aiming to make excellent design accessible to those who appreciate its role in their living and working spaces.

Gravity and Grace: Small store, big ideas.

Gravity and Grace
This is a great store in Swan Street, Richmond. They have a selection of stylish, well designed furniture from a range of smaller, European manufacturers. This is furniture you won't be sick of the sight of within a couple of years, made to a high standard.They also have a great range of local and European accessories.Highly recommended!

a launch

Ruth the artist wishes to hold a launch for her works and who can blame her. They look fabulous in the showroom and should be shown off. I am interested in the concept of selling art in this way and am curious to see how it will go. I believe in the work and feel it is very reasonably priced.

The Hanging

On Tuesday evening the four pictures for our exhibiton were hung. It was an interesting experience watching Marita and Ruth work. It was a joy to see these pictures which I have gotten to know and love through their reproductions hanging on the wall. They really speak to me and look stunning on the walls
