Artist + Founder

Born it the central Victorian goldfields of Australia, Peter Fleming has always looked to shape his surroundings.

Educated at Auburn University and the Institute for Classical Architecture in New York where he began his interiors career in the office of Robert A.M. Stern, his residential interiors practice over the past 25 years has included adjunct teaching in the decorative arts and collaborations with renown Architects such as Bobby McAlpine on private label furniture collections.

Special projects have included custom interiors for private aircraft, touring coaches for the Rock’n’Roll elite and various product design collections in upholstery, door hardware and lighting.

 

 
I have been most fortunate to have been introduced to the practice of creating complete interiors early in my career while working for Robert A.M Stern, a true master of his craft. He taught a respect and understanding of history that enabled me to mature into a full appreciation of my upbringing amongst 19th Century English Colonial Architecture, an influence in style that will persist.
