Dave Nesbit has been a cabinet maker of 30 years and has worked in his own business for 20 years. Dave likes to design and create furniture that you won't see everyday. The use of Corian with the addition solid timber is incorporated into all his pieces. In 2019 his first design ( Luna tv cabinet ) using acrylic and solid timber, won the best freestanding award in the ACFA awards. With covid 19 cancelling the 2020 ACFA Awards, Dave is looking forward to the 2021 Awards, as he has been busy designing new pieces of furniture. There has also been some interest from a journalist of a design publication in Portugal. As Dave waits for his furniture to gather momentum, he also designs and creates high end kitchens for his clients.
