BOBINEK

I’ve always found the ottoman such an interesting piece of furniture because of how versatile it can be. But whenever I went looking for one, I’d end up frustrated by the same dull colours and plain fabrics.So I started BOBINEK with a simple idea: to make ottomans and benches with interesting fabrics, happy colours and a bit more personality.Since then, BOBINEK has grown into much more. I now make pieces to order, reupholster existing furniture and work on commercial projects, but the idea behind it is still the same: ottomans don’t have to be boring.BOBINEK is very me. Even the name has a personal connection. “Bobinek” means ottoman in Czech, and I’m originally from Prague in the Czech Republic.I’m Jana, and I make everything from my studio in Sydney. I love helping people choose their fabric, colour, shape and size, and seeing an idea turn into a finished piece that feels completely at home in their space.
