About Us



Instyle Living may be a new chapter, but for Sam & Cassandra, this venture to trade independantly has been a long time coming.

In 1989 at the tender age of 16, Sam begun working at Knotts Pine while he decided what he wanted to do with his life... 10 years later.. having found his groove in customer service and furniture, he knew this was where he was supposed to be. So when he was asked to start working for Timberland Furniture, a new franchise retailer specialising in great furniture at competitive prices, he jumped at the chance of managing their Auburn store.

Cassandra started her retail journey in 1993 at Bexley Wholesalers, one of the busiest kitchen and homeware stores in Sydney in its time. Her strong sales, eye for detail and leadership skills saw her managing the store until its closure in 2001. It was her great phone manner that scored her a job with Naturally Timber, one of Sydney's leading custom furniture specialists, at their Stanmore store. She then moved up the ranks and managed the Auburn store and helped out in the office.

With their strong furniture business backgrounds, it made sense to join forces. So in 2005, they were given the opportunity of buying a Timberland Furniture franchise at Caringbah. Shortly after opening, they starting advertising for staff and were quick to put Mark on to run the warehouse. It didn't take long to see that his vast experience and great customer focus would be greatly needed in this busy little store and so the the next 6 years the same team has remained. A very rare trait in retail.. and one of the many strengths of this great small business.. its staff.


In September 2010... The team were shocked with the sudden news that Timberland Furniture was in receivership and was being managed by administrators. A quick decision needed to made... and Instyle Living was born.
