Drift & Stone

Drift & Stone is a creative studio, retail space and workshop hub in Ipswich's historic Top of Town precinct, specialising in terrariums, aquascaping and nature-inspired design.

Part gallery, part maker space, Drift & Stone invites visitors to slow down and get hands-on with plants, water and stone. Join a guided workshop to create your own moss or mushroom terrarium, beginner aquascape, Kokedama, or snail garden, or browse the thoughtfully curated retail range of plants, materials, tools and equipment to continue creating at home. The space also offers unique, nature-inspired giftware perfect for curious makers and creative souls.

To complement the experience, Drift & Stone offers barista-style coffee and refreshing iced teas, including distinctive native flavours such as strawberry gum. These are designed to be enjoyed while browsing, taking part in a workshop, or as a takeaway refreshment before exploring your next stop in the precinct.

Drift & Stone is co-located with Nhuralama's Shop, adding another layer of cultural depth to the space. Indigenous artists-in-residence regularly work onsite, creating and sharing their art, alongside workshops that offer visitors meaningful opportunities to learn, engage and create.

Whether you're crafting something for your home, learning a new skill, or simply enjoying a creative pause, Drift & Stone offers a uniquely hands-on Ipswich experience.
