What does your company supply?
Yellow Diva is a creative design studio producing original furniture and products for the commercial and residential sectors.
What’s the history of your company?
The company was conceived in London as a point of convergence between Australian industrial designer, David Walley and British architect, James Davis.

The company relocated to Melbourne in 2008 with the entire collection now being manufactured in Australia.
