As a family-owned business, Candana Bathrooms has been creating luxurious bathrooms since 1981. Understanding the need for high-end finishes, Marc Reed CEO and managing director, further complements homes and bathrooms with high-end luxurious products from his Oliver Thom store.

To establish a foundation for the Oliver Thom store, Marc approached Kaety Thompson to co-found and manage. “Over the years of working in bathroom design, I noticed a real lack of high-end, well-produced bathroom accessories that were easily accessible in Australia,” says Kaety. “We would fit our really beautiful luxe bathrooms and then struggle to style them and give them the finishing touches they deserved. So, Oliver Thom was born to fill that gap in the market.”

Targeting a variety of customers ranging from architects to designers and end-users that had finished a renovation, the store offers something for everyone no matter their level of expertise. Additionally, Oliver Thom stocks candles, diffusers, bathware accessories and so much more. Oliver Thom provides good quality products that are aesthetically pleasing and also have a sustainable source of production. Moreover, each product stocked is chosen to complement the purchaser’s life, such as the resin bath caddy, designed by Kaety.

Believing that the bathroom is the most important part of the home, Oliver Thom has created a range of products that suit the stylish and design-minded enthusiast. Proud of what they supply to the market, Marc and Kaety believe that their products, including local and international collaborations, complete a bathroom’s final form. Following her passion for interiors and architecture, Kaety turned the small store into a one-stop shop for luxury bathware. Just 100 metres down the road from Candana Bathroom’s head office, Oliver Thom’s Woollahra store is bright and complemented by a neutral palette that allows the products to shine and the customers to walk in and feel at ease.
