blur the line between art and function.
we are a 3d-printed lighting and homeware studio based in melbourne’s inner north. each piece is designed by elizabeth de leonardis and brought to life through cutting-edge additive manufacturing. our objects are crafted slowly and intentionally, forming sculptural works that blur the line between function and art—pieces that invite presence, play, and a sense of form into the spaces we inhabit.
shaped by the pulse of the inner north.
we’re shaped by melbourne’s inner north—its layered streetscapes, its creative pulse, its restless energy. our pieces echo that spirit: bold forms that move beyond utility. they spark conversation, shift the mood, and hold space like quiet sculptures.
made slowly, for peaceful living.
smith street design exists to create pieces that infuse homes with personality and creative energy. each object is thoughtfully designed, sustainably made, and alive with colour, vibrancy, and character. our mission is to move beyond the disposable and the mass-produced, and instead inspire spaces that feel authentic and personal. through our designs, we hope to spark conversation and transform the atmosphere of any room.
curate your space your way.
in a world saturated with trends and mass-produced sameness, individuality is slipping through the cracks. generic homewares have dulled our spaces, stripping away warmth, creativity, and personality.
at smith street, we’re rewriting that story. we believe homes should feel personal—curated with objects that are timeless, meaningful, and made to last. it’s about surrounding yourself with pieces that feel like you.
rethinking the way we create
every piece begins as a sketch — a familiar and routine start to any design. but tradition stops there. through a blend of parametric visual programming and hands-on push-pull 3d modelling, each form comes alive digitally. with carefully tuned settings and gcodes, the object is then printed layer by layer with micrometre precision. slowly made, hand-assembled, and carefully packed — especially for you.
about the founder
elizabeth is fascinated by the forms and geometries unlocked through blending parametric tools and artistic flare. smith street design is her playground, where experimentation meets precision and playful ideas become sculptural homewares that transform everyday spaces. in her work, she aims to play with light, shadow, and space—blurring the line between function and art.
