Places for Work, Connection & Wellbeing

Workplaces are a physical expression of a company’s culture and DNA (after all, we spend 10.326 years of our lives occupying them!)

How might we create workplaces that can also improve health and wellbeing, enhance organisational culture and increase operational performance?

Insight Eye Surgery

Noosa

Providing the highest quality eye care in a friendly and caring environment for their Noosa based clients.

After the success of their Brisbane Clinic, Insight Eye Surgery have opened an established clinic in the bustling hub of Mary Street, Noosaville. The purpose built space was transformed from an empty shell tenancy to a sophisticated clinic fitted with the latest opthalmic technology. The clinic embodies a coastal-inspired aesthetic, reflecting the serene context of its coastal location.

A palette of neutral sandy tones flow through the space accented by modern touches of black to seamlessly tie in with the optical equipment, considering both functionality and style. The scope compromised of a variety of consultation rooms, specialist rooms, a staff kitchen and a welcoming reception area with comfortable waiting room.

320 Adelaide Street Facade Upgrade

Brisbane City

From potential safety hazard, an industrial face-lift breathes new life into this commercial building.

Located within the central CBD area, this existing commercial building was previously renovated with foam cladding presenting a fire safety risk to its occupants. Rather than simply replacing new for old, there was an opportunity to breathe new life and personality into the existing 1950’s building. With the desire to minimise the impact on the internal fit-outs, retain as much of the existing glazing as possible and working within the limits of the structural load capabilities, a highly unique outcome was required.

The new transformation comprises a matrix of metal cladding panels and extrusions to create a sleek, industrial tectonic to work harmoniously with the existing gridded facade composition. To compliment the tower facade, finer metalwork elements, exposed brickwork and expressive lighting bring a finer grain detail and pedestrian scale to the lower levels.

As part of the new upgrades, the facade design also brings an improvement to the thermal performance of the building, reducing its on-going running costs.
When complete, the upgraded building will provide improved long-term investment, create an attractive workspace to its tenants, and continue to act as a citizen of the city for decades to come.

Indooroopilly Golf Club

Indooroopilly

Indooroopilly Golf Club are redefining their offerings for their members and visitors. Major changes are on the way for the entire club beginning with recreating the journey.

Our task to provide equitable access and better facilities for members and guests is a long and winding road. Fundamentally the original 80’s Architecture stands strong and creating new links through the building, and around the building, is creating some great outcomes.
The refurbishment hinges on the greenspace of the greens and the extensive trees and heritage of these, which surround the club.

The sport itself drives us to integrate the activity into the building, blurring the lines between indoor and outdoor. The renovation includes extensive new changerooms for male, female, unisex and PWD, new foyer, lift, business lounge and admin spaces. A new extension includes golf retail and expands the golf operations offerings.

Places to Live & Stay

Residential design is not just about four walls and a roof (or how many you can stack on top of each other).

(How might we create places that generate joy and delight, that inspire, that increase the quality of life, and that are respectful of their context?

Ashford Residences

Everton Park

From dairy to exclusive residential enclave.

Ashford Residences is a master-planned residential enclave in Everton Park. The estate will comprise of a combination of attached and detached residences masterplanned to create a unique offering focusing on a owner occupier market.

In its current state, the site was used to house dairy livestock and has significant biodiversity and ecological overlays. These have influenced the masterplan design with a significant parcel of land to the south being dedicated as a landscaped wetland area which will bound the existing Kedron Brook reserve. The wetland will also act as an extension of the existing Kedron Brook Reserve, blurring the delineation between the waterway corridor and the site.

The existing Heritage-listed Murphy’s Dairy residence is located on the corner of Ashmore Street and the entry driveway into the development. This residence will form part of the “Entry Statement” into the development and may house uses such as a sales office. The integration of this dwelling into the development has been vital in respecting the sites previous life and defining a modern Queensland vernacular to continue throughout the development.

Miele Experience Centre, Adelaide

Adelaide

Miele Experience Centres are the pinnacle in luxury appliance shopping. The Centres in Hilton (Adelaide) and Claremont (Perth) are the most recently completed projects in a suite spanning Australia and New Zealand.

Working alongside the Miele Architectural team in Germany, both the Perth and Adelaide Experience Centres were major refurbishment projects of existing fitouts. The joinery and finishes palette were designed to highlight the appliances, and lighting was carefully considered to enhance the visitors’ experience.

The spaces were designed to be free-flowing and flexible – allowing shoppers to see the different areas from various vantage points. A demonstration area is central to the design; where users have the opportunity to see the appliances in action for the creation of a full three-course dining experience.

Both spaces were pared back and carefully considered to organise how the display may change over time. Finishes were detailed to allow easy transition to new displays; with a focus on reducing landfill and disruption to the staff and users.
