ABOUT

Sabu Studio is a Melbourne based furniture, lighting and object design company established by designer-maker Samuel Burns in 2020.

Our design practice is founded upon an honesty to materials, a refined design sensibility, and a contemporary approach to craftsmanship. The designs are subtle and unobtrusive within the interior spaces, yet invite intrigue and delight.

Alongside our range of handmade products, we also offer custom design. All of our furniture and lighting is handmade to order.
