Now, after 8 amazing years of trading in Bangalow, we are closing our physical doors for a while, and keeping our online shop open all hours! Early in 2012 we will be reopening a brand new concept in Sydney, so please join our email list to keep posted. Or, you can follow us on facebook!

ABOUT US
Carolyn Mitchell needed a change from her city corporate architecture
career, and chose to relocate near to her birthplace of Mullumbimby in
late 2003 - aurora design studio was born.
Our motto, 'design with a conscience' means many things - specifically
we seek out and endorse beautifully designed products which support the artisans, designers, environment, ecology and society.
A tall order? Maybe, however our products are from local designers, fair trade organizations, recycled products, organic materials and ingredients, re-purposed goods, sustainable sources and ethical businesses. Put simply, green!
As we research and seek more and more gorgeous design, it is apparent there are various shades of green in the products available. The products which tick all the boxes are elusive! We endeavour to tick as many boxes as possible, so please appreciate we are doing the best we can, considering we need to be sustainable as a business too. We would love every product to tick every box……one day!
Where possible we will provide a fact sheet with the product/brand, so you can understand the particular aspects of each product.
We are also fiercely loyal to our designers! We encourage browsing and creativity on-line, yet the designers we represent have invested, trained and worked hard to develop and produce their gorgeous products, so we will vigorously support their legal rights of copyright and intellectual property.
aurora design studio is now an online store......we hope you follow us on our journey! In the current global climate, reducing our overheads has been necessary, and we are investigating new and exciting ways to present our wares in the future.
