About FORMR
Art you can feel the hands in.
FORMR is a sculpture studio in Brisbane. We heat, fold and paint every piece by hand, so no two are ever the same. You choose the design, colour and texture. We bring your imagination to life, slowly and properly, as an antidote to fast homewares.
“FORMR Meets the brief. Our 5th prize home sculpture and not the last. Many compliments thank you!”
“I am absolutely in love with my two sculptures! Each one is completely unique and has its own personality—the flowing gold piece is elegant and striking, while the vibrant blue sculpture is bold, joyful and impossible to ignore.”
“FORMR!! You can feel the love and care Charlotte puts into every piece she makes, I now have 3 (soon to be 4) that I love looking at. There are other artists who do "wavy" sculptures (I've got 2 from another artist before I saw Charlotte's work), but Charlotte's pieces are the ones I feel have such good energy about them. It goes beyond just aesthetics with her”
“I'm absolutely in love with my Formr wall sculpture. The craftsmanship is incredible,
every detail feels so thoughtful and beautifully made. It instantly lifted my living room and gave it that elegant, sophisticated touch I was missing.”

The process
From your idea to your wall.
Five slow steps. Every one of them done by a person.
01
Tell us your idea
Share your space, a colour you love or a feeling you want the wall to hold. We reply with options, sizes and a quote.
02
Shaped by human hands
Material is heated and folded by hand, one bend at a time. Making every fold is its own, set in time.
03
Painted slow, in your colour
We use Resene Paints for your project. Resene’s products are generally rated strongly for colour retention in UV-intensive Southern Hemisphere conditions. Other brands may be available on request.
04
Premium quality control
Each piece cures properly before it leaves the studio. We check every edge and send you photos before dispatch. Your piece stays on the studio wall to ensure the hanging mounts are installed correctly while it cures.
05
Packed with your install guide
Securely packed with fixings and a simple step-by-step install guide if applicable. Most pieces hang from a single D-ring, and can be installed without a professional.

侘寂
Wabi-sabi art
Perfectly imperfect, on purpose.
Wabi-sabi is the Japanese way of seeing beauty in the handmade, the uneven and the one-of-a-kind. It is the heart of FORMR. A machine makes a thousand identical things. A hand makes one. The soft ripple in a fold, the trace of a brush, the way light pools differently on every surface: those are the marks of a real person making something for you.
No moulds or templates
Every sculpture is shaped freehand, so yours may be similar to the photos or render, but never identical.
Artistic Paintwork
The texture is intentional. It is how you know a person painted it, made to stand the test of time.
No moulds. No machines.
Every sculpture is shaped freehand, so yours is similar to the photos, never identical.
Slow by design
We take the time each layer needs. Good things are worth the wait.
Made to last
Lightweight acrylic bases, quality paints and finishes made for living with. Can be moved with ease and installed 360 degrees if you want it changed to the space.

I have commissioned multiple pieces from her, and every single one has exceeded my highest expectations. I absolutely cannot wait to display them in my new house!”
“Charlotte at Formr absolutely nailed it.
She sculpted two custom pieces for our property and the result was spot on. The attention to detail, the balance of colour, and the overall finish exceeded expectations.
You can tell there’s real thought and care behind her work, it wasn’t just “nice”, it elevated the entire space.
We Couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out. Highly recommend.”

Can’t see yours? Send a custom order enquiry and we’ll come back to you.
How long will my piece take?
Ready-to-ship one-of-ones dispatch within a few days. Made-to-order pieces usually take 3 to 8 weeks depending on size and finish. Custom pieces can’t be rushed, so please plan ahead for deadlines and ensure you let us know dates.
Will my sculpture look exactly like the photo?
It may be similar, never identical. Every piece is folded and painted by hand, so the folds, texture and brush marks are unique to yours. That is the wabi-sabi heart of what we make. If you have a unique render, please keep an open mind as it will never be as perfect as a computer generated image.
How do I hang it?
Most pieces are lightweight and hang from a single D-ring, with Velcro tabs for extra support on larger works. Every order includes our step-by-step install guide if needed but we do try to make it as easy as possible. If you are unsure, we highly recommend an art installer.
Can I choose my own colour?
Yes. Choose Resene colour, or ask about gold, chrome and silver leaf finishes. Add your colour in the order notes or send us an enquiry if you require a colour from a different range such as Dulux or Porters as this will require a different preparation process.
Can I pay it off?
Yes. Afterpay and PayPal Pay in 4 are available at checkout on eligible purchases, so you can split your piece into four interest-free payments.
Do you ship large pieces?
We ship Australia-wide. Pieces larger than 1 metre ship in 2 or 3 panels, or as one connected piece crated by an art courier on request. International courier may need an additional quote so please reach out to us
