Satara was recently asked to participate in a cross promotion with Planet Shoes managed by their social media agency.  The below facebook advertisement resulted in Planet Shoes biggest ever social media competition response and we are currently shipping prizes across the country. 

Satara is excited to be launching a number of new furniture ranges and homeware products at this year's Design and Decoration Expo in Melbourne July 2013.

Promoters of this year's Design and Decoration have highlighted our participation with an on line editorial , click here to read the full article about our expertise in indoor outdoor living.

We look forward to showing you these in person July.

Our stunning Bedarra Outdoor Sofa range was highlighted in the February edition of OUTDOOR Pooll and SPA 

 .

The blend of traditional teak paired with modern white synthetic cord have a broad appeal to home owners, interior designers and retailers alike. 

Located in Bondi Road leading into Bondi, the Yellow Bungalow displays a number of Satara pieces including the multifunctional Scandic Bench, Nordic Desk and a variety of bedside tables and buffets (depending on stock rotations).

The Scandic Bench sites proudly in front of this beautifully styled store.

For those who couldn't make the Jan 2013 event the organisers have posted a 4 min video featuring a few highlights.

1. Everyone knows Pantones Color for 2013 is Emerald Green, but the challenge for all us is how will we weave this this into our daily lives or interpret this into our product ranges.  It marries so well with hues of blue and adds a 'pop' to muted greys like this room in the Hampton USA decorated by  Stephen Gambel.
2. Embellished walls mean wall papers are here to stay, but in 'look at me' florals and geometric patterns,
3. Neutals in homewares are huge already and such a design staple.  Guranteed to be seen beyond 2013.
4. Lace is going to be big in interiors - watch out grandma I need that tablecloth!
5. And Brass - not sure about this but it's early days.

Summer Holidays go so fast! 

We plan for them all year, dream about them in the depths of winter, and like a runner in a race, scrape across the line in December.  After the hectic November and December we had at Satara,  January was all about recharging the physical and mental batteries.

We did this down the Mornington Penisula in Victoria in what was one of the best summers in 10 years.  We made the most of it either down at Portsea, where all 3 of our kids completed the Portsea Nippers Program and Portsea Swim or fishing on Port Philip Bay.

This is such a little slice of heaven etherally floating in Ibiza Spain.  We especially love the outdoor areas with floating platforms over pools of water and off course that view of the Mediterranean. 

Satara's Loupe Outdoor Lounge with sand cushions and few of elements outdoor cushions can help you achieve a similar look in your outdoor areas.
