range and number of options that covers virtually every facet of a build. “The Studio has the breadth of products to help building and design professionals and more importantly their customers – to bring the whole build to life.

Enormous range of options aside, the Studio’s greatest asset is its talented team, who offer a complementary tailored selection service. “We have an extended network of qualified team members,” says Studio Manager Michelle Caust, who lists kitchen designers, interior designers, front-of-wall plumbing specialists and joinery experts among the stable of professionals on site. These experts can knowledgeably walk clients through their selections, as well as offer specialised services in areas such as bathroom design and custom joinery.

All about ease

Any building project is an epic adventure that requires ticking off an enormous list of products and materials – scheming, sourcing and bringing everything together to create a cohesive whole. It’s a task not for the faint-hearted, but it’s made infinitely easier by the Bunnings Building Solutions Studio (BSS), a dedicated space for builders, developers, architects, designers and their clients. Bunnings Head of Builders Duncan Bryce explains, “The Bunnings Solution Studios are a new offering to market and have the advantage of one of the widest ranges of products in one place and with an emphasis on the whole of build. Our team can provide support and advice from the slab right through to the landscaping.”

Dream it, see it

Finding the right products to bring a client’s dream to life can be challenging, but having a wide range of options visible in one place makes it a comparative walk in the park. Going far beyond the already extensive range at the Bunnings Warehouse retail stores, the BSS has access to a staggering array of products, spanning all specifications from entry level to premium brands. With high-spec brands ranging from Beaumont Tiles and Oak & Co for flooring, to Villeroy & Boch and Decina for bathrooms, and so much more, your clients will be spoilt for choice.

Ultimately, it’s all about making things easier for building professionals and their clients. “Builders can see everything in one spot and they only have to deal with one person, as opposed to seven or eight, or more, suppliers over different parts of a build,” says Michelle. She adds that it’s a boon for clients too, who would normally find themselves on the road with their builder or architect, inspecting a confusing array of products across multiple suppliers, over several days. “We can do all that and build flat-lays for them so they can see as much as possible in one place,” Michelle says. The proof is in the testimonials, says Duncan, and BSS visitors have been amazed at the breadth of resources housed under one roof. “One customer commented that it had saved them 20 visits all across Melbourne to find what they needed for a townhouse development.”
