Designer
Cupboard Love is the "designer
label" of Shane
Collens whose design experience includes
fashion, graphics and web development as well as
furniture.
A feel for fashion and aesthetics,
attention to detail, technical and market research,
are the ingredients for Cupboard Love's style in
four collections.
Each style
is a statement of form, texture enhanced with the
natural beauty of wood or
defined by a covering finish.

Philosophy
Cupboard Love was launched in
1986 with co-founder Veronica
Collens, whose experience includes media and
public relations, desk top publishing and layout
design.
The philosophy that furniture plays
an important role in our lives and reflects the way
we feel about ourselves influenced the choice of
name - Cupboard Love - self appreciative
love, which by its nature, extends to everyone
around us.
