Saintleo is a New York–based design and production studio operating at the intersection of metal, furniture, and spatial design.

Founded by Leon McKay after his studies of engineering in Melbourne, Australia, Saintleo took shape as an architectural project workshop in Auckland, New Zealand. Following Leon’s interests in music, art and architecture, Saintleo has since evolved into a studio for special projects, collaborations and limited-edition pieces, now based and operating in Brooklyn, New York. Each project reflects Leon’s visual language of design, detail and craftsmanship, combining an eclectic use of raw materials with a refined, contemporary sensibility.

Carbon Credenza

The six-door, three-section unit was designed and commissioned for the Universal Music Office .

The internal structure is constructed from black furniture-grade plywood, with matching edge banding. The exterior is defined by 5-gauge (5.314 mm) steel plates forming the back, sides, and top, establishing a strong architectural shell.

Soft-closing doors are clad in carbon steel to match the outer structure. A folded top-edge detail creates a continuous negative reveal between the doors and upper plane, functioning as a discreet integrated handle.

The unit incorporates concealed rear cable exits, adjustable shelving, and port openings within each compartment to support media placement and power management, balancing industrial materiality with functional precision.

Dimensions: 94.5" (L) × 20" (D) × 23.5" (H)

Materials: Ply, Mild Steel (Hot Rolled)

Finish: Raw, Sealed

Made in New Zealand
