Scout House

Overview

When it comes to unearthing furnishings and bespoke goods from a bygone age, there aren't many better at it than Scout House owner Orlando Mesiti. Having long been a collector of weird and wonderful objects from vintage markets across Europe, his St Kilda shopfront should be your first stop when you're trying to hunt down something truly original. From furniture and fine works of art to homewares and peculiar knick-knacks, Scout House's offering is certain to have your home looking fresher than any coat of paint could manage. And, as an extra plus, Scout House also manufactures its own sofas, daybeds and other decorative goodies.
