Saintleo was founded by Leon Mckay in Auckland, New Zealand in 2017.
After studying metal engineering and furniture making in Melbourne, Australia. Saintleo was first established as a workshop for architectural commissions and projects in Auckland, New Zealand from a desire to showcase details and craftsmanship in metal working.
Drawing inspiration from years of collaborative experiences and more recently combining it with a personal vision. Saintleo now branches into a platform of its own combining design, art and functional objects. Releasing limited pieces along with global collaborations.
The first Saintleo solo exhibition, for Auckland Design Week the sold-out exhibition displayed limited edition pieces designed by Leon Mckay. Aluminium curved sculture stools were made in a limited run exclusively available for purchase, along side the mesh record credenza and Altec A7's.
