About Us

KoalaCogs is a Sydney-Australia based design studio, established in 2015. The firm was started by two industrial designers that wanted to break away from the mainstream commercial design world and provide clients with a customised, personal approach to their design needs. KoalaCogs specialises in Industrial and Graphic design, development and manufacturing.
KoalaCogs is different from other design firms, we focus our up most attention to the quality and workmanship of the end product, not working to a price point. We have a clear set of design philosophies that focus on not just the product.

Koala Cogs Design Philosophy
- Use local manufacturers and services where possible

We do support our local industry and work with local suppliers and manufacturers as much as we can.

Focus on Sustainability

We care about the environment and strive to design products accordingly, considering the whole Life-Cycle of the product, from cradle to grave. We aim to source our materials from sustainable sources and use production methods which have minimum impact on the environment.


- Attention to detail and quality

We want our products to last not just for 1 year but for 10+ years. That’s why we only use the highest quality materials and processes to create products that will remain usable for generations to come!


A Customised Approach

We don’t just take on big jobs, we are happy to take small custom jobs as well! We aim to work with the client to create a product which uniquely suits their needs and specifications. Each job is different and carries a different complexity.


Craftsmanship

KoalaCogs is one of the few design studios that operates a fully functional workshop on a daily basis. We have the specialized machinery and knowledge to create one-off pieces from a range of materials as well as Digital Studio to create one of a kind design/art work.
