Science behind the Chair
Jan 16th
Every day most of us rest our behinds on an office chair of some description. I would guess that most of us don’t give a second thought to what went into the making of it.
Even after all these years of manufacturing, the research and development still continues.
One of our popular lines at Valiant Hire, the Zody by Haworth, can be seen in the attached video.( It isn’t a long video so it won’t take too much time, but it is worth watching to understand just some of the effort that goes into making these comfortable chairs.)
Perhaps you should hire one for a while and see how different you feel after using a great chair.
Short or long term, we can help you out in Sydney,Brisbane and Melbourne (and of course the surrounding areas).
And it starts all over again…
Jan 9th
Well it appears that the Christmas holidays are all but over for most of the workforce. Phones are ringing and the email inbox is starting expand again. (If you are lucky enough to still be on holidays – we envy you )
A lot of Property Styling jobs have gone out this week as people prepare for the summer selling period.
This is encouraging not only for us at Valiant Hire but also for our friends in the Real Estate sector. There are still some amazing properties out there and when shown to their full potential with home staging or property styling they are commanding fair and decent prices.
If you are thinking of putting your property on the market make sure you have a chat to one of our friendly teams in Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane who will be able to offer you a package deal that will help you achieve your sales goal.
Have a look at some of the recent styling in Melbourne by Valiant Hire in the video below.
Display Village Styling the Valiant Hire way !
Nov 18th
We know that you are aware of our Property Styling services however you might not know that we also furnish many of the Display Villages that you have seen. Display furniture is an important part of a home builder’s marketing plan.
The challenge is to have the property appealing for a broad target market. Our designers meet with the builders and discuss in depth the needs of their customers and the styles of furniture that would best suit the market.
Valiant Hire has been providing quality furniture hire for these long term customers for many years now and is also able to build custom packages to really make each display home stand out from the crowd.
There is a sneak peak at an upcoming village below. Make sure you keep an eye on future blog posts when we release the next houses and their pictures.
BMW 1 Series Media Launch Melbourne
Oct 18th
Yet again BMW has chosen to use Valiant Hire for the furniture for their recent BMW 1 Series Media launch. (As seen in our video below)
The introduction of the new version of their successful 1 Series was cause for a big celebration. The use of design classics such as the Barcelona & Swan chairs combined with our stunningly simple Outline coffee tables matched this event perfectly.
The success of this much loved vehicle will continue with the new model, with sleeker lines, more room and more equipment – BMW have made a good thing even better.
Valiant Hire was also proudly involved in another recent press release for BMW with their 1 Series M Coupe.

When Nature’s design shines – Aurora Borealis
Oct 6th
All too often we look at the design and creation of mankind and forget to look beyond and see what nature has provided. After a recent discussion with a world traveler I could not help but look for some video evidence of such natural beauty. As luck would have it, a video came through the inbox that was too good not to be shared.
I am referring to the Aurora Borealis (or the Northern Lights).
The attached Video was made by Flatlight Films for www.visitfinland.com and I am sure you will agree that it is truly stunning. To not share it with our friends would be criminal. Enjoy !

Dannii Minogue – Melbourne Spring Fashion Week 2011
Sep 21st
The amazing Melbourne Spring Fashion Week (MSFW) has now finished and what a week it was. One of the undoubted highlights was the picture of fashion herself , Dannii Minogue.
Dannii Minogue at MSFW VIP event from Valiant Hire on Vimeo.
At a VIP event styled by Georgie at www.georgeous.com.au using Valiant Hire furniture, Dannii stole the show. If her amazing beauty wasn’t enough, just take a look at the gown she was wearing (and some may also say that partner Kris Smith was the perfect accessory as well !)
The event along with MSFW was a tremendous success and our congratulations go to the organisers and of course Georgie Kay and her fabulous team. Don’t forget to check out her website and facebook page.
Freeways to Furniture Hire
Sep 16th
When you think of major infrastructure and road building efforts, furniture hire probably isn’t the first thing that jumps into your head !
You imagine large machinery and hard hats, yet behind the scenes of these massive operations lies a team of engineers and assistants to make sure everything runs smoothly.
Valiant Hire recently set up an office for over 100 people working on a road project, and the project was hundreds of kilometres away from the office itself.
The flexibility of hire combined with the quick set up times (the office was set up in under a working day) made hiring the furniture the perfect choice for this team. Check out the 30 second video showing some of the set up !

Property Styling & Home Staging
Aug 31st
Spring has now arrived and it is the time to get your property ready to sell. Property Styling or Home Staging is the key to a stronger and quicker sale.
The low attendance rates at open homes through Winter will soon be replaced with Spring shoppers looking for a change of home and if your property is not styled, you are not going to attract the buyers that your competitors are.
Using a professional Styling & Furniture Hire company such as Valiant Hire will allow you to furnish to your target market and vastly improve the appeal of your property. Styling helps to sell, the experts agree on that.
With Spring being the busiest time of the year for stylists, furniture hire companies and styling companies, it would be a wise move to start planning now and contact us.
With Property Styling available in Sydney, Melbourne, Brisbane and the surrounding areas – we have got you covered.
Mercedes Benz Fashion Festival Sydney
Aug 31st
One of the true glamour events on the fashion circuit has to be the Mercedes Benz Fashion Festival in Sydney. Tony Assness was one of the many talented and creative people involved this year and chose to use our wonderful Nemo Chair as part of his staging set up for his client. Draped in fabric the Nemo was almost ethereal in its presence.
Combining minimalist white tables and our equally stunning Panton Chairs, the set was not only purposeful, but beautiful.
More Lady Gaga – Monster Hall Sydney Concert
Aug 16th
Valiant Hire was proud to be the supplier for the furniture used in the backstage area of the lady Gaga Live at the Monster Hall Concert in July this year.
As promised in our blog a month ago, we have now been able to release the images from the Lady Gaga concert at the Sydney Town Hall.
Sydney event company Azbthecreative utilised some unique and stylish furniture from Valiant Hire, combining it with their own selection of accessories to create a look as eclectic as the performer herself.
