Rubio Monocoat South Africa, Building A/14 Kyalami Boulevard, Kyalami Business Park, Johannesburg (2026)

The Aalto sideboard – by Warren Turnbull Warren Turnbull
Available on auction at www.rubiomonocoat.co.za

Specie: Ash
Finish: Pre-Aging, Oil Plus 2C
Colour/s: Authentic no 6, Pure
Dimensions: 1600mm L × 850mm H × 360mm D

This piece started as a question: how far could I push a steam-bent lamination before it stopped feeling structural and started feeling like a single continuous line?

Every piece of ash in this build started life as 2000x60x10mm recycled strips – nothing here was bought as a finished board. The legs are laminated from those strips, steam-bent and glued up to sweep from a low stretcher, up through the leg, and directly into the top rail – one uninterrupted curve on each side, no joint breaking the line. The top is laminated from the same recycled stock, ripped and thicknessed down, giving it a tight, repetitive grain pattern that echoes the vertical strips in the bent legs – so the whole piece speaks one language even though the top and legs were built through completely different processes.

Underneath, two slim drawers float in the gap below the top rail – barely visible from the front, finished flush, hardware fully concealed on Blum undermount runners. Half lap joints hold the main frame together, honest and unfussy, while the drawer boxes are through-dovetailed at the back – a small, hidden detail of traditional joinery in an otherwise pared-back piece.

A statement of luxury, craftsmanship and exceptional materials.

Metamorphosis v2 – by KC Croucamp
Available on auction at www.rubiomonocoat.co.za

Specie: Passiflora Burl & Oak
Finish: Pre-Aging & Oil Plus 2C & SheenPlus
Colour/s: Authentic no 5, Pure, Cortado
Dimensions: 1640mm H x 545mm W x 435mm D

The Metamorphosis v2 Cabinet is a contemporary drinks cabinet inspired by transformation, master craftsmanship, and the innate beauty of natural materials. As the second iteration of the original Metamorphosis Cabinet, it reflects the maker’s ongoing commitment to refining her craft. Its organic, sculptural form creates an immediate sense of curiosity, inviting the viewer to touch and interact, while opening the doors reveals a thoughtfully organized interior tailored for presenting fine spirits, glassware, and bar accessories.

The cabinet is cloaked in richly figured Passiflora burl veneer, where soft curves and sculpted doors contrast beautifully against a dark, powder-coated metal frame. Inside, a warm, chocolate-toned oak interior creates an indulgent setting for storing drinks. This harmonious dialogue between warm timber and black steel strikes a delicate balance of elegance and structural strength, while the elevated base lends the piece a light, floating silhouette.

Inside, the cabinet features dedicated bottle compartments, stemware hanging storage, and a push-to-open drawer featuring hand-cut dovetails and an aromatic sweet cedar base. Inscribed on the drawer bottom are the Latin words: In vino veritas – In wine, there is truth.

The Heritage Hub – by Francois Lensley & Hannes Coetzee Francois Lensley
Available on auction at www.rubiomonocoat.co.za

Specie: White Oak
Finish: Pre-Aging, Oil Plus 2C & SheenPlus
Colour/s: Authentic no 5 & Affogato
Dimensions: 1320mm L x 770mm W x 965mm H

We came up with a mobile kitchen island unit that would serve its purpose in more ways than one.

Sideboard, food prepping station, drinks/bar counter, breakfast nook, hobby/craft table, even a cool study/workspace!! Pretty much anything you can think of with all the bells and whistles regarding storage thrown in! All at the cost of only around two square meters I might add.

The structure consists of a combination of solid Oak and Oak veneered Birch plywood – to keep the weight down on the internal frame and drawers. Heavy duty castors for mobility and, needless to say, littered with Blum’s world class kitchen goodies.

And finally, we finished it with Rubio Monocoat’s Pre-Aging, Authentic no 5 & Oil Plus 2C Affogato. The exterior surfaces were also finished with the Sheen Plus, giving our rustic feel some much needed sheen.

I present to you: “The Heritage Hub”

The Gathering – by Graeme Brown Browns Custom Studios
Available on auction at www.rubiomonocoat.co.za

Specie: Kiaat
Finish: Pre-Aging & Oil Plus 2C
Colour/s: Fumed Light, Light Roast & Hazelnut
Dimensions: 1900mm D x 760mm H

My entry celebrates the idea that craftsmanship is more than building furniture, it is about creating something that tells a story and brings people together. Inspired by the South African spirit of Ubuntu, I built a statement table that represents connection, community, and shared experiences.

Some of life’s fondest memories are made around a table, family meals, celebrations, heartfelt conversations, and moments shared with friends. I wanted this piece to become the centre of those experiences for generations to come.

The table is handcrafted from solid Kiaat, sponsored by Silverton Hout Handelaars. Kiaat was chosen for its warmth, character, and longevity. Clean, contemporary lines allow the natural beauty of the wood to take centre stage. Every element has been carefully considered to create a timeless heirloom rather than simply another table.

Rubio Monocoat was the natural choice to finish the project. Its ability to enhance the rich colour and grain of Kiaat while preserving the authentic feel of the timber perfectly complements my design philosophy. As this piece will be auctioned in support of CANSA, I hope it inspires generosity, creates lasting memories, and reminds us that great craftsmanship has the power to make a lasting difference.

The Kumiko – by Njabulo Shabangu Legacy Carpentry
Available on auction at www.rubiomonocoat.co.za

Specie: European Oak
Finish: Pre-Aging & Oil Plus 2C
Colour/s: Fume Intense & Dulce
Dimensions: 1000mm H x 900mm W x 450mm D

Crafted from European oak, this three-drawer chest was created for the Rubio Monocoat Heritage Build-Off as an exploration of how tradition can be carried forward through contemporary woodworking.

The design was inspired by the language of historic timber geometry, particularly the rhythm and repetition found in Japanese Kumiko lattice patterns, where small wooden elements create depth, movement, and shifting shadows. Rather than reproducing a traditional motif, the piece reinterprets that heritage through carved relief: directional fluting transitions into a field of faceted geometric forms, creating the illusion of interlocking wooden modules that change with the light.

The diagonal composition symbolizes the meeting point between past and present – the linear grain of traditional craftsmanship dissolving into a new geometric vocabulary shaped by modern tools and digital carving, while remaining rooted in the timeless material of oak.

To reinforce the theme of heritage and aging, the timber was treated with Rubio Monocoat Pre-Aging,“Fumed Intense”, allowing the oak to develop the depth and character of naturally matured wood. The final finish, Oil Plus 2C, “Dulce”, enriching the grain with a warm, understated tone that highlights the natural figure of the European oak.

Colour/s: Authentic no 1 & Dunes

“I am incredibly excited and honoured to have been selected to take part in the Rubio Monocoat 2026 Build-Off. It is a privilege to participate in a competition that celebrates creativity and craftsmanship while also supporting such an important cause, with the auction proceeds being donated to CANSA.

Rubio Monocoat is a company and product range that I know well and have trusted in my furniture-making for many years. This build offered me a rare opportunity to design something entirely from my own imagination, without having to work within a client’s specifications. It was both exciting and challenging to begin with a completely open brief and allow the design to develop naturally. I chose to create an eight-seater dining table using French oak. I love the warmth, character and old-world charm of this timber, particularly when it is used to create fresh, modern designs. Blending old and new is something I enjoy incorporating into both the design and manufacturing of our furniture. In the spirit of celebrating South Africa’s Heritage Day, I chose a table because it represents a space where we gather. As South Africans, so many of our best moments happen around a table, with family, friends, good food, generous hospitality and shared memories.

The DYAMBU Bedsides x2 – by Suzi McAfee
Available on auction at www.rubiomonocoat.co.za

Specie: American White Oak
Finish: Oil Plus 2C
Colour/s: Just Peachy
Dimensions: 510mm L x 380mm D x 500mm H

A pair of sculptural solid oak bedside pedestals inspired by the warmth of the African sun.

This is your chance to own an original, one-of-a-kind Monarch Woodworx creation celebrating South African heritage, craftsmanship, and colour. Handcrafted from American oak, generously sponsored by Rare Woods Knysna, this pair of bedside tables features soft sculptural curves and rounded corners inspired by mid-century modern design. The geometric drawer fronts pay homage to the vibrant patterns and colours that define our nation’s creative spirit. As the creator of my own bespoke Rubio Monocoat Oil Plus 2C colour, I couldn’t resist bending the rules of the build-off and finishing these pieces in Just Peachy. This unique finish bathes the oak in a delicate peach blush that not only protects the timber but enhances its natural grain, allowing its beauty to shine through. The result embodies the Monarch Woodworx Scafro philosophy - where South African identity, Scandinavian simplicity, and retro influence come together to create furniture that is both timeless and unmistakably unique.
