ALTONE is a specialist Australian furniture designer and manufacturer with a philosophy of total involvement in all elements of quality furniture design and production. Altone takes the initiative in local design and production to set new benchmarks of quality and sophistication. 

Production is of a concentrated nature with production runs and one-off builds both possible so quality of build and design integrity can be withheld through each piece.

Our extensive material and surface finish selection are second to none, giving you the confidence to be precise with your decision. Standard finishes are available on all pieces with the possibility to specify special finishes as required by clients.

Altone mixes traditional manufacturing methods with the latest techniques to move beyond the standards of the past, to create the new aesthetic. 

Altone reflects the coming of age of the sophisticated Australian home environment.
With a developed sense of the modern Australian habitat and years of manufacturing experience Altone provides a balance that ensures a beautiful and practical choice for any home.


THE DESIGNER

Anthony Hurd began his career restoring and rebuilding ex government, industrial and mid-century furniture. This gave Anthony the opportunity to work with many elements of furniture construction and finishing techniques. It was the beginning of his passion and knowledge of all types of local and international timber varieties, which remains a major part of his design trade today.

He began designing in 1991 with his first pieces available for commercial sale in 1993 when the ALTONE label was born.

When Anthony is designing, he is inspired by shape, architecture and colour. Every piece is given a great amount of time in conceptual and prototype stage prior to being released. Anthony believes furniture needs beauty and longevity in its form and function. His extensive knowledge and passion for furniture form creates modern, yet classic and confident pieces that have a great presence in any space.
