About Nusantara Lifestyle
Sustainability and Sourcing
At Nusantara Lifestyle, we specialize in reclaimed teak furniture that combines sustainability with exceptional design. By sourcing teak from aged structures and repurposing it into stunning furniture pieces, we reduce the demand for new logging while celebrating the wood’s natural resilience and timeless appeal. Reclaimed teak carries a distinct character, marked by its weathered texture, unique grain patterns, and rich patina—qualities that make every piece one of a kind.
Reclaimed teak furniture is a testament to durability and practicality. Teak’s natural oils and dense grain make it inherently resistant to rot, pests, and the elements, ensuring a long lifespan whether used indoors or outdoors. Its rustic aesthetic, with warm tones and striking grain patterns, adds character to any room or outdoor space. By choosing reclaimed teak furniture, you’re not only enhancing your home with a unique design but also supporting sustainable practices that help reduce deforestation and waste.
Our reclaimed teak furniture collection includes pieces designed for every part of your home. Indoors, you’ll find dining tables that serve as stunning centerpieces, sturdy chairs, beautifully crafted beds, and elegant cabinets. For outdoor spaces, teak’s weather-resistant qualities make it perfect for garden benches, patio sets, and loungers that offer both style and durability. Each piece in our collection is thoughtfully designed to highlight the natural beauty of reclaimed teak while complementing modern and traditional decor styles.
ORIGIN Platform
ORIGIN by Nusantara Lifestyle lets you see where your reclaimed teak came from – documenting its previous life, source location, material history, and transformation into your furniture or interior piece. For our clients and their projects, selected pieces (or the entire project) include an ORIGIN QR code, offering direct access to their material history.
Our Founders
Will hails from Victoria, Australia, and after decades exploring the surf and culture of Indonesia, he settled in the country in 2013, working with NGOs through programs delivered by the Australian government. In 2015, while on assignment in Yogyakarta, he met Anysia, a local biotechnology student with a family background in furniture manufacturing, and the two have hardly left each other’s side since. In 2017 the couple moved to Bali, starting a documentary film business together, while Anysia moved further into the furniture and timber industry. Their first furniture brand was opened in late 2018, before they planned and prepared the sustainable furniture brand they had always wanted, Nusantara Lifestyle. Alongside Anysia’s background in furniture, timber, and the biotechnology, Will also has educational background in Environmental Management and International Development, ensuring that they hold in-depth understanding of the direct and indirect challenges and opportunities faced by the environment and sustainability themes. Furthered by their love for all things nature, including surfing, hiking, camping and exercise, Nusantara Lifestyle is clearly an extension of the couple’s beliefs and actions in their everyday lives.
