Our Story

Civic Australia is passionate about creating spaces that inspire learning. We don’t just supply furniture. By combining in-house interior design, space planning and project management teams, we work alongside our clients to create inspiring and engaging environments that exceed expectations.

As a market leader with a reputation for excellence, Civic Australia provides customised “turn-key” solutions for academic and community spaces. From concept right through to completion, our team works with you every step of the way, creating an environment that best suits the size, usage and design of your space.

Creating hundreds of educational spaces each year, our in-house team of talented interior designers, space planners and project managers know what it takes to create a flexible, functional and stimulating learning space. From flexible spatial designs that support collaboration and creativity to STEM classrooms that put students in control of their learning, we will work with you to choose the right furniture pieces, layout and design.

Brief History

1999 – The Journey Begins

1999 – The Journey Begins

After identifying a growing need for quality, stackable and linking seating in Queensland, we launched Civic Seating and developed a reputation for creating flexible, convenient seating for community venues.

2013 – A Shift in Focus

2013 – A Shift in Focus

With 16 years of experience, we realised that flexibility was important for more than just community venues. Wanting to change the way Australians thought about educational spaces, we rebranded as Civic Australia, moving our head office to Western Sydney to focus on providing furniture for libraries, flexible learning spaces and auditorium spaces as well as community venues.

2018 – A Turn-Key Solution

2018 – A Turn-Key Solution

With two decades of experience, we realised we could offer our clients more than just furniture and launched our turn-key Design + Construct service. By bringing together inhouse interior design, space planning, project management and Australian manufactured furniture, we work with clients from concept right through to completion, delivering impressive educational fit outs.
