Where we started

HFOC was founded in Sydney in 2002 by Scott Faso and Charles Hardingham. What began in a warehouse in Surry Hills is now Sydney's #1 online destination for pre-owned, authentic designer furniture.

The idea sprang from necessity. When Scott moved from Los Angeles to Sydney in 1998, he relocated from a large house to a Paddington terrace, then to a modern apartment, and back to another terrace. The furniture perfectly suited to one space was completely wrong for the next. After selling some pieces at auction for a pittance and giving others away, Scott realised Australia lacked what California had perfected: a proper consignment marketplace for quality furniture.

The concept resonated immediately. By 2006, HFOC expanded to a larger space in Alexandria's growing furniture district.

Enter Michael Orringe, a native of country New South Wales who'd spent 14 years in Los Angeles studying Interior Architectural Design and working with noted designers in Beverly Hills and Seattle. After returning to Sydney in 2010, Michael joined HFOC and purchased the business in 2015 when Scott moved on to other ventures.

Today, HFOC stocks pieces from B&B Italia, Poliform, Herman Miller, Cassina, Minotti, Kartell, Ligne Roset, Great Dane, Jardan and many others alongside bespoke items commissioned by Australia's leading interior designers—all for well below retail showroom prices.

Whether you're upsizing, downsizing, rightsizing, redecorating, or relocating, we're here to assist.
