The Art-Work team was recently treated to a glimpse into the process behind creating hardware for kitchens, bathrooms and wardrobes thanks to our client, Hepburn Hardware. Hepburn Hardware’s designs come from their base in Currumbin and reflects our country's relaxed lifestyle. Think handles, hooks and knobs that are unique, understated and classic.
Alison, who heads up Hepburn, gets a thrill out of predicting trends, designing, working with manufacturers, chatting to the interiors trade and sampling new styles so she and her team can bring you the best curated hardware designs.
Today, content creation is important for any business. Working with Alison, we captured the Hepburn design process, from sketch through to fabrication, visiting their foundry to capture and document the creative practice.
Spending time in the foundry helped us create genuine connections with the Hepburn team and their brand, enabling us to create a video that represented their authenticity, thoughtful approach and specialised process.
Through styled flatlays we captured the simple beauty of their considered products, ensuring that the detail and visual perfection of the hardware is front and centre.
“We aim to design and supply quality hardware that’s different to what’s currently on the market.”
All Hepburn hardware is handmade, with form and function in mind but with care and precision instilled into every piece. The skills and expertise required for these processes are passed down over many generations, making sure this way of artful manufacturing isn’t lost.
