Redefining possibility
since 1988
People often ask what the ‘evo’ in Evostyle means. Truth be told, it’s a homage to our father’s initials, Victor Ommundson, who started the business in the early '80s.

Back then he was making components for large furniture manufacturers, however, his son Luke spotted the need for a higher level of joinery craft - one that worked hand in hand with architects and designers, elevating the skills of woodworking to a premium level. Not so that we could become cabinetmakers or suppliers to society’s elite, but so that the attention to detail, pursuit of perfection and the superior expectations of our country’s finest designers and specifiers could be consistently met.

It’s those expectations that we continue to exceed, over 30 years later. And that brings us neatly around to the other answer to the ‘evo’ question. It also stands for ‘evolution’ and sums up our continual journey to find more creative ways to fulfil the demands of our clients and their customers. Staying ahead by thinking ahead and by constantly redefining what’s possible.
Louise Ommundson
Founder
“Our vision is to partner with leading companies and professionals who value the expertise and ability of our team to co-create products that continuously exceed customers' expectations.”
Our Principles
At the heart of Evostyle are three core principles that together make us strong, unique and forever moving forward.

We are focused on our heritage. Resurfacing overlooked and even forgotten ideas, translating what has been seen as the everyday or ordinary details into a brand for a new generation that leans proudly on its past.

We believe in the power of progress. This means realising and harnessing the latest technologies and techniques at every opportunity.

Sustainably working for Australia
Sustainability is at the core of everything we do at Evostyle, and we don't just talk about what we are doing.

Our Environmental Management System is Globally Certified to ISO 14001:2015.

We use timber certified as sustainable and refuse to manufacture with rainforest species or those under threat of extinction, like Merbau.

We minimise waste when preparing timber stock and use off-cuts in smaller products whenever possible.

We give unused off-cuts to schools and community organisations, bag smaller off-cuts for firewood, and donate sawdust to local chicken farms for bedding.

And we're only getting started.

We routinely and actively review our systems of manufacture, always to the benefit of our environment.
