Business Details
We established 2EIGHT3 in 2013 on the Central Coast of NSW after our founder Jono D'Aprix spent over ten years as a carpenter on building sites. We specialise in designing and creating genuinely custom timber furniture, interior joinery, and feature carpentry tailored to your exact dimensions and aesthetic. We solve the common problem of finding statement pieces that fit specific spaces by offering a fully collaborative design process from concept through to delivery. We work with both recycled and reclaimed timber as well as carefully selected new materials to produce functional, character-rich pieces built to last. Our craftsmanship focuses on three core principles: unique design that brings a relaxed atmosphere, creation using materials diverted from landfill, and uncompromising functionality.
We ensure every project remains transparent and structured, keeping you informed at each stage of the journey. Our workshop produces vanities, beds, seating, kitchen cabinetry, entertainment units, desks, and bespoke feature elements for residential and commercial clients. We draw on extensive trade experience to deliver joinery and carpentry solutions that integrate seamlessly into your home or business. We are committed to sustainable practices, giving pre-loved timber a second life while reducing environmental impact. We guarantee a considered end result that carries individual character and meets the highest standards of durability. We welcome the opportunity to discuss your project and bring your vision to life with honesty and expertise.

We had the idea of having a high king-size bed frame made in a rustic style. We took a sketch of our design to Jono and within a few days he had come back to us with professional drawings and a quote. The job was was finished within the promised time and Jono delivered it and helped assemble it. He was engaged, friendly and a pleasure to work with. The finished product is lovely and true to our concept. Jono's work is highly recommended.

I'd recommend 2EIGHT3 to anyone who's after recycled timber gorgeousness. I had a plan for my home office space, and searched forever on the web to find ready-made furniture to fit.

Jono listened, understood, asked plenty of questions and came up with drawings that looked like they came directly from my brain. His quote was within my budget, his communication skills were amazing and he delivered the finished

We are absolutely in love with the four poster bed Jono made for us! After months of researching the perfect bed, we finally found one we both loved, but it was only sold overseas, and had sold out. We liked the idea of using recycled timber and supporting local business, so we did some more research and found 2 eight 3. Using some images we had he… was able to send us designs of the bed using recycled timber and used some creative skill to keep the price down without sacrificing quality. Jono is a skilled and talented carpenter and has a excellent problem solving brain to boot. We couldn
