Built reputation for quality craftsmanship and strong collaborations in the design industry.
Nestled amongst the trees in the serene countryside of Victoria, ‘The Makery Club's workshop is a haven of craftsmanship and dedication. Ky Starcevich, a master artisan in fine furniture building, has gained widespread acclaim in Melbourne and beyond for his meticulous attention to detail and unwavering commitment to quality. His workshop's journey from concept to creation is a testament to the art of precision and the extensive planning required to produce furniture of such high standards.
Every creation emerging from this space bears Ky's hallmark of perfection. The process begins long before the first cut is made; it starts with an idea, a vision of what the final piece will look like and how it will function.
The planning phase is crucial, says Ky. He spends hours sketching designs, considering every angle and curve. Each piece of furniture is a unique challenge, requiring careful consideration of the wood's grain, colour, and characteristics. Selecting the right wood is an art in itself, as different types offer varying strengths, textures, and aesthetics.
Precision is the cornerstone of Ky's work. Measurements must be exact, down to the millimetre. A small error can compromise the integrity and beauty of the piece. Ky's workshop is equipped with state-of-the-art tools and machinery, but it is his skilled hands and a keen eye for detail that truly makes the difference. Each cut, joint, and finish is executed with a level of precision that can only be achieved through years of experience and an unwavering dedication to his craft.
Finishing is another critical stage that requires both skill and patience. Ky carefully sands each piece, ensuring a smooth and flawless surface. Applying stains, oils, or varnishes is done with precision, bringing out the natural beauty of the wood while protecting it for years to come. This attention to detail not only enhances the visual appeal of the furniture but also ensures its longevity.
Ky's commitment to quality extends beyond the workshop. He stands behind every piece he creates, confident in the craftsmanship and durability of his work. This dedication has earned him widespread acclaim in Melbourne, where his furniture is highly sought after by those who appreciate the blend of functionality, beauty, and artistry.
In Ky Starcevich's workshop, every piece of furniture tells a story of meticulous planning, precision, and an unwavering commitment to quality.
