WE ARE CURATORS OF ART, VINTAGE & INDUSTRIAL FURNITURE.
NEW ARRIVALS
WE ARE COLLECTORS OF THINGS & STORIES.
WE ARE BALA.
There are so many beautiful things in the world. At Bala, we love finding them, repurposing them and displaying them in a new context.
We look for unique, raw and humorous pieces that lend personality to a room, that make a house feel like home, that transform a space.
Combining elements from different decades and countries,
old factories and art galleries, we aim to create an eclectic atmosphere.
We source pieces, we design spaces, we curate art.
