The Faces (and Paws) Behind LAB Designs AUS

LAB Designs AUS began with two dogs, one cat, and a sewing machine that wouldn't stop humming.

Leo (the white bulldog with a permanent eyebrow), Archie (the black fluffy Tamaskan with serious main-character energy), and Bart (the feline boss of the house) are the real inspiration behind every collar that leaves our hands. What started as a way to give our own pets something unique and comfortable quickly turned into a full-blown obsession — and now a brand made for pets who deserve better than boring.

We’re based in WA, crafting every item in small batches with a mix of fun, function, and fluff. Every design has a story, whether it's nostalgia, pop culture love, or a cause we care deeply about.

LAB Designs AUS isn’t just a pet brand — it’s a tribute to the chaos, cuddles, and personality-packed lives our pets bring us.

About the Maker

Hi, I’m Georgia — the human behind the thread!

What started as a late-night sewing hobby (powered by snacks and stubborn pets) turned into LAB Designs AUS: a small-batch, pet-obsessed brand run from my home in WA. Inspired by my own crew of chaos — Leo, Archie, and Bart — I wanted to make accessories that actually felt like our pets: bold, silly, stubborn, and totally one-of-a-kind.

Every piece is cut, sewn, and packed by me. I choose fabrics that spark joy, support causes that matter, and hold up to muddy paws, car naps, and couch zoomies. Whether you're here for something cute, something meaningful, or just a collar that won’t fall apart mid-walk — I’ve got you.

Thanks for supporting my little dream. It means the world (and more treats) to all of us.

Leo 

Chief Inspiration Officer
Our white bulldog with the iconic eyebrow. Leo is equal parts sunshine napper and silent protester (especially when it's time for a walk). He's strong, snuggly, and slightly dramatic — which is exactly how we like our collars, too.

 

Current mood: sunbaked potato

Archie

Head of Outdoor Testing
Fluffy, majestic, and slightly chaotic, Archie puts every design through the ultimate durability test: backyard zoomies and dramatic sulks. He’s all about big adventures, loud opinions, and bold style.

 

Will work for toast crusts and emotional validation.

Bart

Creative Director & Fabric Supervisor
Don’t let the snoozing fool you — Bart runs the show. He oversees production from high places, ensures nothing leaves without a sniff of approval, and occasionally selects designs by sitting directly on them.

 

Is it quality if the cat didn’t approve? Absolutely not.

Nigel and Neville

Junior Mischief Interns
Newest to the team but already causing chaos like seasoned pros. Whether they're chasing thread across the sewing table or napping in fabric bins, these two are learning the ropes — and unravelling them just as fast.

 

Job duties: fabric inspection, zoomies, unsolicited keyboard edits.
