This week in a TDF Open House special, local furniture company Jardan are joining us on the Guest Blog!
It's no secret we heart Jardan rather a lot around here. As outlined in my interview with Jardan's Melbourne director / designer Nick Garnham late last year, Jardan manufacture all their furniture right here in Melbourne, and the entire range is also environmentally accredited.
We have had the great pleasure of dealing closely with Nick and his team during the planning and preparations for TDF Open House and I have to say we think they're all pretty awesome. They're just so super relaxed and friendly, and it's so inspiring to see such an energetic, family run company manufacturing locally and thriving. We feel very lucky to be showcasing their seriously gorgeous furniture at our big event this week. The house is looking very cute and VERY colourful!
Do pop by the Guest Blog all week for a little look at Jardan behind the scenes... You'll see a little sneak peek of their brand new outdoor range (launching at TDF Open House later this week!) and you'll get to know some of the talented team who design and create Jardan's extensive range. THEN when you pop in and visit us later this week at TDF Open House, perhaps you'll spot a few familiar faces!
Massive thanks to Linda at Jardan for her stellar work on both TDFOH prep and the Guest Blog simultaneously! We love your work lady.
