Sombrilla Creative were commissioned to design, document and oversee the manufacturing of the new signage requirements at Five Dock RSL. Sombrilla commissioned National Sign Build to manufacture the signage for Five Dock RSL as it was much more efficient dealing directly with the manufacturer. Sombrilla worked with National Sign Build as they have sound knowledge and experience in sign manufacturing, they were reliable, cost effective and were able to meet our lead times and budgets.
National Sign Build has over fifteen years experience supplying to designers, architects, shopfitters and builders Australia wide and were able to manufacture a wide range of signage products including LED, Neon, Digital printing, Wallpaper, Aluminium Composite Material fabrication, Aluminium, Steel fabrication, light boxes and Acrylic Signs.

E T O N S R O T EDI Danish design has seen a surge over the last few years. I often visit trade fairs, here in Australia and overseas, and I have started to notice more and more Scandinavian products. Many people and cultures appreciate minimalism and while Scandinavian design has always been strong worldwide, there seems to be a new focus on what is happening with design and architecture. Danish designers are making their mark worldwide including in Australia with the most well-known one being Jorn Oberg who designed the iconic Sydney Opera House. Danish Design at the House was part of the Opera House’s 40th anniversary, held last October, with special guests the Crown Prince and Princess of Denmark. An ‘exhibition of small things’ was held in the building’s foyer displaying industrial designs among other things, demonstrating the values of Danish design. Each of the six windows was designed and constructed by young Danish architects. Danish design is an integral part of trade and culture and this became apparent when we spoke to Kasper Rønn and Jonas Bjerre-Poulsen from Norm Architects. They say in Scandinavia, the lampposts, public restrooms, houses, and benches are all designed with form and function in mind, and growing up in the midst of it gives them a distinct (design) advantage. Read more on their company and the global appeal of Danish design on page 16. I was asked the other day why we called the new magazine FAD. It stands for fitout, architecture, design and these three are closely related.
Whether it is for a store, restaurant, bar or hair salon, an architect, designer and shopfitter will be involved at some stage, so naming the magazine FAD only made sense to us. As we needed to broaden our focus and go beyond shopfitting, shopfitters have been doing the same. While shopfitting mainly refers to retail, with the changing retail landscape shopfitters are doing more and more fitouts in industries such as hospitality, beauty and hair as well as health, fitness and leisure. Instead of doing the ‘same old thing’, they are challenging themselves and the industry by moving into new directions. The Interior Fitout Awards recognise these innovative projects and every 18 months the shopfitting association, ASOFIA, asks its members to enter their best work for the awards, which will then be judged across 27 categories. For the first time the awards program featured The Australian Made Awards category, created to encourage them to use Australian materials, promote Australian manufacturing, and support local skills and resources. Last October the 2012-2013 winners were announced and in this issue we feature all the winning projects in a special Interior Fitout Awards section starting on page 27. I hope you enjoy reading this issue of FAD Quarterly and I would love to hear what you think.

Natural state of mind A MIXTURE OF NATURE AND RETAIL BROUGHT THE OUTSIDE IN TO THE STORE.

SNAP SHOT Client: FAT Location: Westfield Doncaster VIC Shopfitter: Krueger Shopfitters
rueger Shopfitters was engaged to undertake the fitout of FAT. A fantastic project, the fitout took approximately four weeks with a great result. The design was by Annie Lai and the brief was to translate the wilderness of a bamboo forest, mountains and ocean all into the interior of a retail store, through texture, pattern and colour. The shopfront window frames the view into this 'outside' world of FAT. The forest of bamboo surrounds the interior walls of the retail space creating the backdrop to the store. The repetition of the tall vertical elements through the use of full height bamboo poles sets a
regular rhythm and uniformity for FAT's varied products and at the same time allows for visual merchandising flexibility. Bamboo panelled floor display units also add to the natural feel of the store. The patterned vinyl flooring has been a theme throughout FAT stores and this store is no different with mixes of colours that enhance the new concept. The unorthodox ceiling image that was produced by FAT sums up the brand's quirkiness and its success. Materials and selection played a large part in the overall aesthetics of this store. Comprising of stripping uprights encased in a bamboo pole with each 85 poles having been hand selected and delicately cut to fit the posts to ensure consistency. By bringing many different mediums of material together, the completed fitout created a natural calming feel contributing to the ambiance of the shopping experience. â——

THIS RUSTIC INDUSTRIAL CAFÉ WITH A MODERN FINISH WAS CREATED IN THE MIDDLE OF A SHOPPING CENTRE.

I
mage Interiorz worked closely with both the designer and client on this project to come up with an industrial rustic style cafe. The look was achieved by selecting recycled and raw materials. Working after hours in the middle of the popular Westfield centre was a challenge but the shop was completely refurbished in two weeks. The brief from the client and designer was to create a rustic industrial looking space with the features and functionality of modern
equipment. The shopfront is custom made from recycled timber, all made off site and conceal fixed into place. Custom made pylon signage and bench seats are located in the shopping centre seating area. Feature walls throughout the shop include recycled timber, compressed fibre board, tiles and ShadowClad plywood. Other works included a complete strip out, new paint work, installation of steel roller shutter to shopfront, new floor and wall tiling, concrete look vinyl floor, custom made joinery, stainless steel bench tops and shelving, feature lighting, custom made recycled timber clock and neon look LED signage. A complete plumbing and electrical overhaul was done on the shop for safety and functionality. â——

A TEAM EFFORT
From L to R: Craig Lane, Shane Talbot, Margaret Antkowiak, Anthony Burke, Yashin Radhakrishnan and Lana Stariha
12 |
WHAT IS IT LIKE WORKING IN A TEAM WITH FIVE OTHER DESIGNERS? Anthony Burke: It is a constructive design environment where you constantly have a mix of design ideas and directions. This allows us to generate more conceptual ideas and explore more design options. We all have different skill sets, and as part of a team we can choose the most appropriate designer to do the work required. It’s also great to be able to share and discuss the design work we do in our own time outside of EDA. Lana Stariha: As a junior I think it benefits me a lot, I’m able to learn and develop a wide range of skills because of the people that I am exposed to. Everyone is always happy to help.
Shane Talbot: It’s a great environment with a lot of different perspectives, meaning that when ideas bounce around the office they are often attacked from many different viewpoints. The only con is the inevitable argument over what music to play.
WHAT ARE THE CURRENT DESIGN TRENDS IN POS DISPLAYS? Burke: Simplicity, subtle use of hard edges and/or curvature, subdued earthly colours with occasional bright highlights and premium finishes. Margaret Antkowiak: Interactivity— building in electronic ‘smarts’ to engage the shopper. Talbot: It definitely has to be the increasing role of technology—be it through providing interactivity and engagement, or to help understand the shopper, or simply to easily keep the unit up to date. Craig Lane: In the types of retail we are designing for it is a little different for each category. For skincare and grocery there is a trend away from the clinical and clean look. There is a trend to natural materials like timber etc, but also found objects or raw materials, ie recycled timber and concrete, there is still a hint of chrome or polished acrylic and clean LED lighting. The other trend is putting interactivity via digital media into stands. There are a lot of requests to put a screen in, but with little thought about content, how do drive sales through interactivity, how it may affect online purchasing, etc. We believe if a digital device is there it must have a purpose and be tied into an overall marketing plan and not just be a glorified slide show screen. WHAT HAS BEEN THE BIGGEST CHANGE IN THE POS INDUSTRY? Antkowiak: I haven’t been in the POS industry for very long but in the past few years I would say both brands and clients are getting a
better understanding of shopper needs and wants—making a large push in creating an ‘experience’ and ‘immersive environment’ for the customer. Talbot: In my few years in the industry, the biggest change I have noticed is the increased value in permanent and longer lasting displays. This has many benefits, but the most exciting to me is the opportunity to include value-adding design intent to the units. Lane: The biggest change is the impact of online sales and how to re-engage the consumers at point of sale. Tempering this is the tightening of budgets, meaning many projects have a ‘hero’ solution in only a few top stores then a more cost effective version for the rest. Some of the global brands are asserting more influence from overseas about the design look of displays—the Australian market still has some unique stores and sizing, so it doesn’t 100 per cent translate.
WHAT HAS BEEN THE HIGHLIGHT FOR YOU [SO FAR]? Burke: Large rollouts like the Maybelline urban 1 unit, Energizer Woolworths category management system, L’Oreal Studio Secrets units. It’s always satisfying when a large scale production run rolls out with minimal or no design, manufacturing, assembly, installation or merchandising issues. Antkowiak: Designing the Napoleon Perdis Myer units. Yashin Radhakrishnan: Making people see that design is more than just form and has value beyond getting something to stand upright. Lane: Having the opportunity to work in different countries and markets, seeing both the similarities and differences in the markets first hand. Working with a talented team and having preconceptions pushed by truly unique ideas. ◗ FADQ 13

TAIT’S POINT OF DIFFERENCE AND KEY TO GROWTH HAS BEEN AND REMAINS GOOD DESIGN AS WELL AS COMMITMENT TO SUSTAINABILITY. ITS PRODUCTS ARE MADE IN MELBOURNE AND ARE MADE TO LAST.
F
or the past 21 years Tait has been an integral part of the Australian contemporary furniture industry. Australian-owned, Tait has been designing, prototyping and manufacturing versatile products for both outdoor and indoor spaces in commercial, hospitality and residential settings. The Tait collection currently comprises 20 different product ranges developed over the last 21 years— each defined by a distinctive personality and an innate sense of fun. They have continually introduced unique products that are often years in conception and prototyping. The company constantly refreshes and refines products within existing ranges—or adding new designs to those—while also releasing new ranges. On average, Tait introduces one new product each year that has been developed in collaboration with an external designer in addition to one or two new internal products.

While in Auckland on a sailing regatta, Gordon Tait spotted a Good One stool in a design store and tracked down designer Alistair Keating. The rest is history, with Good One now being made under license by Tait, including a range of tables and benches. After meeting Adam Goodrum in 2009, the company collaborated with him to design and manufacture the Airliner collection. Jak and Jil designed by Justin Hutchinson and made by Tait was launched at SID Melbourne. The range introduced a new style to the collection which had been up until now dominated by tables and benches. Jak and Jil was embraced by hospitality clients and gave the market a sculptural colourful indoor/outdoor option. Industrial designer Justin Hutchinson approached Tait and commenced work part-time in the factory as an in-house designer and collaborated on the design of Gardenwall, Huski and Kink.
August 2012 saw the launch of Volley designed by Adam Goodrum and made by Tait, while Gordon Tait’s design of the Breeze Sofa and Softline Planter ranges was also unveiled. Collection stalwart FAT has quietly morphed into the Linear range courtesy of the availability of narrower width timber, now sporting a more contemporary look while retaining the simplicity of the predecessor’s table design. “To earn a berth in the collection, a product must bring something new, different, exciting and fun to the market—it must be very well resolved,” says Susan Tait. In fact, when cheaper and inferior quality offshore product started to flood the Australian market, the company responded by continuing to concentrate on delivering quality, original designs with great service before, during and beyond delivery. First and foremost Tait products are designed and made with the intention of providing a lifetime of enjoyment.
They research, source and test materials and production processes to provide customers with virtually maintenance free products. They also continually work to reduce impact from the operations of the business via raw material minimisation, waste management, energy and water efficiency and recycling program. Susan and Gordon Tait are committed to giving back—to developing the Australian design community and Australian manufacturing capabilities. They have been pivotal in helping Australian industrial designers to realise and expand their body of work and to develop their profiles. After attending the Milan Furniture Fair in 2008 and noticing how many young Australian design hopefuls were trying to sell their designs to overseas manufacturers, they headed back and created more of those opportunities in Australia. For designers, the opportunity to have their designs prototyped with feedback along the way, manufactured and taken to market in collaboration with a respected manufacturer, designer and retailer is a rarity in Australia and globally. Tait provides local industrial designers with the benefit of being able to work directly with a local manufacturer and the valuable learning of being part of the hands-on role as part of the journey. “The Tait collection also benefits from fresh, new ideas that talented external designers bring,” enthuses Gordon. In 21 years, Tait has grown gradually, shifting their manufacturing plant and headquarters to larger premises in Melbourne’s inner north on three occasions—Fitzroy, Collingwood and now Thornbury backing on to the banks of the Merri Creek. It’s a decision that has seen production flow ramp up and go “through the roof”, says Gordon. The company is commited to sustainability— economic, social and environmental informs every facet. All materials that can be are sourced from within Australia to bring to clients a product of amazing quality, durability and another point of difference. All manufacturing processes take place locally—in-house at the factory while others such as galvanising, powder coating and timber components are outsourced to specialist local suppliers with whom the Taits have forged strong relationships many years in the making. Tait has rolled out two showrooms/retail shops in the past three years due to increased demand from the residential sector while providing more space to assist the architecture and design community and their clients. ◗

| design | KASPER RØNN AND JONAS BJERRE-POULSEN STARTED NORM IN 2008 IN COPENHAGEN AND DESCRIBE THEMSELVES AS DESIGNERS DOING ARCHITECTURE AND ARCHITECTS DOING DESIGN.
NORDIC FUSION How long have you known each other? Bjerre-Poulsen: Kasper and I have actually worked together for the last 15 years in many different workplaces, also doing other things than design and architecture. So workwise we know each other very well, which is extremely important when having this kind of partnership. Rønn: After college, we worked for five years at designer Ole Palsby’s studio, where we designed pots, thermos jugs and the like. He was a classic modernist and we got our formal training there. Where does the name Norm come from? Bjerre-Poulsen: The name Norm was chosen because it was important for us to work with traditions and norms that have existed and been refined through millennia instead of always searching for something new. How does your Scandinavian heritage reflect in your designs? Bjerre-Poulsen: In spirit with the tradition for Scandinavian simplicity we strive to cut to the bone in our designs. To find the simplest shape 16 |
In Scandinavia, the lampposts, public restrooms, houses, and benches are all designed with form and function in mind, and growing up in the midst of it gives us a distinct design advantage.
for a given task without forgetting the beauty of the shape and the beauty of the details, in order to reach a point where there is nothing to add and nothing to take away that can make the product better. Rønn: The Scandinavian tradition is rooted in a sincere devotion to the crafts, with a strong focus on using good materials and creating designs that last. Products should not only be durable because of good materials and good craftsmanship, but also aesthetically durable in the sense that you can keep looking at them and find them interesting and beautiful as the years roll by.
‘Soft minimalism’ is a design term created by Norm Architects. How would you explain the meaning of it? Bjerre-Poulsen: Minimalism is not a modern style. Minimalism has been the norm in many cultures all over the globe since the beginning of civilisation. Reduction and perfection have been the main goal for both craftsmen and inventors, because avoiding the irrelevant means emphasising the important. All too often people think of architecture and design in terms of added grandness. But it is often the plain or the reduced that is most striking. Our style is a no-style. We strive for timelessness in our work. What is typical Danish in regards to design and living? Bjerre-Poulsen: One thing that is common for Danes is that, due to the somewhat harsh and grey whether, there is a very strong focus on the interior, because we spend so many hours inside. There is also a strong focus on bringing nature inside—both in the ways we use natural light in architecture and in the way we choose materials.
Why do you think your designs appeal to the global market? Bjerre-Poulsen: We try to do design that has a universal appeal to all humans regardless of living habits and aesthetics and we think many people and cultures appreciate minimalistic designs. Rønn: Danish design is very unpretentious and comforting. It does not pretend to be something it’s not. It’s honest and straightforward in its function, design and materials, without losing beauty. Our designs work in many different settings, because of the simplicity and the timelessness and we believe that is the key to our design success. What is on the horizon for Norm Architects in 2014? Bjerre-Poulsen: We are working on many different things at the moment—new houses, new restaurants, showrooms, magazines and books. But three very important projects that we are looking forward to launching in the new year is the new Menu brand, where we have curated a strong furniture and lighting collection with some of the most talented designers in the world, the launch of a big collection of outdoor furniture we have designed for the world´s biggest design retailer, Design Within Reach—based in the US, and then the growth of a jewellery company that we are art directors for and co-own, Von Lotzbeck Jewellery. ◗
Is Scandinavian minimalism becoming a worldwide trend? Bjerre-Poulsen: We think that Scandinavian design has always held a strong position globally, but there is no doubt that the strong focus on New Nordic within the culinary world has helped put a new focus on what is happening with architecture, design and art as well. You feel the boosted interest in all creative genres. FADQ 17

THE KARATE KID
NAMED AFTER THE KARATE MASTER FROM THE 1980S MOVIE, MR MIYAGI ON CHAPEL STREET WINDSOR IS A FUSION OF JAPANESE STREET HAWKER MEETS WINDSOR WINE BAR.
D
esigned by Eades & Bergman, Mr Miyagi exudes a relaxed, urban atmosphere with a Japanese alleyway feel. The lighting by Please Please Please creates a consistent flow from the front of the establishment to the rear by emulating street power lines and cables that lead to the rear booths. Street-like light boxes protrude from the brick walls along the way, evoking thought to walking through the hustle and bustle of a Japanese alley. The entrance wall features cost effective, acoustic cardboard tiling panels. The idea was derived from patchwork corrugated iron panels found in old Asian side alleys, giving Mr Miyagi an urban Japanese vibe.
18 |
Mesh panels have been used on the walls adjacent to the cardboard tiled walls of the entrance and continue throughout the front section. Designed to function as a more relaxed area for after work drinks or where guests can sip on Sake cocktails whilst waiting for a table, the mesh panelling continues to the street front. Large windows open out onto Chapel Street, bringing the outside in. Low stools by Tobi Munch provide a relaxed and casual feel. A pink neon love heart illuminates the word ‘loser’ that is scrawled in graffiti on the wall in the front area, providing a first glimpse of the tongue in cheek humour that weaves its way throughout Mr Miyagi. Hidden in the back are three booths, each with the capacity to seat eight people. Created as a hint towards Japanese Tea Houses, Mr Miyagi’s booths have wooden shutters that create a contemporary twist and murals depicting Japanese imagery by artist Tracy Hogan.
Following on from the murals in the booth area, further artwork can be found in the bathrooms. The focal point of Mr Miyagi is the bar. The bar face is cladded with recycled timber tiles, by Urban Edge, salvaged from shipwrecks. Complementing the bar’s exterior with recycled timber tops are Steve Edwards’ bar stools, serving as a perfect perch to watch Michael Forbes create delicious beverages or a sushi-bar style dining seated area where the sushi chef prepares and serves sushi straight on your plate. With any interior design brief there are always challenges to overcome. In Mr Miyagi’s case it was the long wall that runs from the entrance to the back of the building, that actually turned out to work in the designer's favour. A pre-existing brick wall that housed undiscovered original windows was exposed during construction and have been left in their unique and original state, enhances the Japanese laneway feel and adds a touch of character to the space. From the cement wall cladding to the recycled timber used extensively throughout, Eades & Bergman have successfully created a warm and welcoming space with Mr Miyagi. The furniture fittings are casual, relaxed and encourage interaction, while the finer details add an urban edge and contemporary Japanese twist that complements the overarching Mr Miyagi vibe. ◗

appeal to the client's aesthetic sense, designing a space that is harmonious and elegant. Trend has succeeded very well in its enterprise. Its mosaics match perfectly with the concept of the salon designed by Anton Kobrinetz, who brought to life Aldo Coppola Jr’s creative idea. The salon becomes an elegant and luxurious space in which clients are pampered by a team of experienced professionals. Trend and Aldo Coppola have worked together to create a unique and innovative design project, following in the footsteps of the very best Italian artistry traditions. Trend mosaics in Milan's Aldo Coppola salon bring a touch of high class and are reminiscent of the best traditions of Italian mosaic art, which Trend has been renowned for since it was founded, just like Aldo Coppola salons represent the best in terms of quality and attention to customer service in the field of beauty and aesthetics.

Bondor secures Larson by Alucoil distribution rights for Australia Bondor, a leader in thermal and architectural building solutions, has gained the Australian distribution rights to the Larson by Alucoil range of aluminium composite panel (ACP) products. The announcement coincides with the opening of Alucoil’s first Australian manufacturing plant in Melbourne. A Spanish multinational, Alucoil specialises in the transformation and manufacture of high-tech, decorative aluminum materials for building, transport and industrial use. Bondor general manager Geoff Marsdon says Bondor will handle distribution and installation of Larson by Alucoil, a composite panel produced by two metal sheets in aluminium, stainless steel, copper or brass. “Customers will benefit from an increased product range, swifter delivery times—one to two weeks for special project material as opposed to months waiting for overseas shipments—transparent

Australian warranties, Australianbased technical support on a national scale, and improved price stability less affected by currency fluctuations,” he says. “With Bondor’s strong track record in the manufacture of insulated panel, its six manufacturing locations around Australia, dedicated research and development teams, statebased sales teams, a national specification team, a company focus on the needs of architects and specifiers, and construction crews in each state, it made sense for us to build an alliance with Alucoil. “Bondor and Alucoil first connected about three years ago when we were looking for a copper finish product for a particular project and the relationship flourished from there. At the time Alucoil was considering opening a plant in the Asia Pacific region and ultimately decided on Australia over other countries. Bondor
was keen to form an alliance and work with them, given our national distribution network and specification teams were already in place. “This type of product is not specified on buildings without going through a rigorous quality and technical performance assessment, and we already do that with other products in our range.” Marsdon says several highprofile projects were already underway across Australia including the Darwin Correctional Facility, the expansion of the Logan City Hospital in Queensland, the new Adelaide Convention Centre, and the recladding of the No 1 King William Street building in Adelaide. “The first completed project is an impressive apartment and retail complex, The Face apartments in St Kilda, Melbourne, which features Larson copper finish panels to great effect,” he says. ◗

Tom Fereday of Fereday Design wins design residency Space Furniture has announced the winner of the Space+Moooi 2014 Design Residency is Sydneybased industrial designer Tom Fereday of Fereday Design. Space Furniture worked closely with design company Moooi, with whom they share a 10-year association, to initially create a short list of eight contenders. All applications were reviewed by Marcel Wanders, Moooi founder and art director and Casper Vissers, Moooi founder and CEO. It was the thinking underpinning Fereday’s design response, along with his presentation and extensive technical skills, which were the key factors that impressed the judges. Fereday’s demonstrated ability to get things done along with his affable personality resonated with Moooi’s ethos. Tom Fereday submitted the Shove chair collection that encapsulates an impressive mix of design and technical development. “We believe Tom’s handwriting/ DNA is a fit with Moooi—he is not searching for ‘me too’ products, instead he wants to achieve something exciting and unexpected, ” remarks Vissers. As the Space Design Residency winner, Fereday will spend eight weeks at Moooi headquarters in The Netherlands where he will learn about the inner workings of a professional European design brand. This experience will provide insights into the business operations, the production techniques and back-end thinking that inform the design and
development of a successful product with a world-leading manufacturer. The ultimate outcome of the Space + Moooi Design Residency for all parties would be that the product developed in collaboration with Moooi would go into production. “I seriously believe we should be able to achieve a product for Milan 2015 with Tom,” Vissers comments.

Hugo Boss King Street – Sidgreaves NATIONAL FITOUT OF THE YEAR
SNAP SHOT Client: Hugo Boss Location: King Street, Sydney NSW Fitout: Sidgreaves Size of project: 817 square metres
28 |
Hugo Boss Sydney flagship store is located in the busy King Street precinct in the heart of the Sydney CBD, with a heritage façade which was built in 1881 as part of the development formerly known as the Sydney Arcade. The building—now part of the 400 George Street building—has 30 levels of mixed office and retail tenancies, with the heritage façade in front of the ground, first and second floor and the rest of the building constructed from contemporary steel, stone and glass above. As part of this fitout Hugo Boss extended from shop 9A on the ground floor and the entire first floor behind the heritage facade, to an expanded area which now also incorporates shop 9B on the ground floor to consolidate two levels behind the heritage façade. It is
a menswear and womenswear fashion store for Hugo Boss showcasing its entire collections in addition to a full complement of accessories. The fitout was undertaken by Sidgreaves and the design was undertaken by Hugo Boss shop designers Hollin + Radoske located in Frankfurt, Germany. The store’s concept provides a balance of old and new, with a striking interior and modern energetic ambience which blends Victorian heritage with a mod-Mondrian style. The 132 year old façade and heritage foyer provide a unique and yet timeless street frontage that is a tribute to Sydney’s retail history. Upon entry the foyer opens onto an impressive suspended custom designed and engineered circular staircase, which
A A
leads up to the first floor. A sparkling tailor designed LED chandelier then extends through the stair’s core immediately drawing one’s eye up through the store, the edgelit acrylic shards visibly twinkle night and day from the street outside. A separate private pre-sell room has also been incorporated into this store, designed so that the space can be completely closed off from the rest of the store to service VIP clientele and provide a personalised shopping experience with its own separate fitting foyer. The sales counters are tucked away in separate dedicated foyer spaces out of direct view from the customer, with the staff providing a ‘tray service’ for transactions, with it being the first of the Hugo Boss stores in Australia to do so. ◗

Emporio Armani – Crosbie Projects NSW INTERIOR FITOUT OF THE YEAR
SNAP SHOT Client: Emporio Armani Location: Martin Place, Sydney NSW Fitout: Crosbie Projects Size: 424 square metres When global couture brand Giorgio Armani decided to refurbish its flagship Emporio Armani store in Martin Place Sydney, it undertook a very stringent consultative selection process before deciding on a shopfitter best suited to do the fitout. The store was designed by Giorgio Armani and his team of architects, considering every detail and reinforcing that the Armani brand and reputation is expressed not only through the clothes and products they design, but the environments
30 |
in which these products are displayed. A beautiful environment will only bring out the beauty in the style and design of the products and the new Sydney store would not be an exception. The team at Crosbie Projects were up for the challenge. No detail was overlooked and this is evident in the finished product. Marmarino (or Venetian plaster), used widely in Italy, was used on the ceilings to produce an elegant and unique polished marble effect, reflective of the crushed marble contained within it. Custom designed fabric wall panelling was extensively used to create a sense of comfort and style, and on the floors large format Laminam tiles made using the latest in Italian ceramic technology was chosen for its versatility, durability and aesthetic
compatibility with imported black stone also used on the floor. All of these beautiful surfaces aside, the most extensively used material throughout the store is glass, in particular rare black pearl glass for its unquestionable timeless elegance. All of these beautiful natural elements have been juxtaposed with the excitement and modern appeal of floor to ceiling LED screens on which the season’s latest collections are projected. The team at Crosbie Projects worked tirelessly and travelled extensively to find the right people and processes to help deliver the perfect results using materials more readily found in European markets. The Sydney store looks and feels as though it is in the centre of Armani’s style capital Milan in Italy. ◗
Michael Hill – Woodland Shopfitters QLD INTERIOR FITOUT OF THE YEAR
SNAP SHOT Client: Michael Hill Location: Queens Plaza, Brisbane CBD QLD Fitout: Woodland Shopfitting Size: 61 square metres Woodland Shopfitting was engaged by Michael Hill to project manage and construct this distinct commercial identity with the design being undertaken by Gold Coast architect, Inarc Design. Michael Hill Queens Plaza represents a unique new flagship store for its international retail jewellery outlets. This tenancy with its prominent location, unique shape and size provided the opportunity for a specific bold concept. With the corner location and double vaulted space this
tenancy entices the public to enter the premises. Video walls, jewellery display and integrated signage try to catch the eye at the tenancies frontage. Tenancy walls are a combination of clear glazing contrasted with sections with backlit translucent screens. These elements offer the promise and the interior delivers through sparkling rows displaying the range of fine jewellery. The design of Michael Hill Queens Plaza is a play of balance and contrast. Rigid metal fins are employed to create visual curved forms, which wrap the interior and bulge through the façade facing the street. At this prominent corner site the exterior of the tenancy combines curved elements with solid walls, clear gazing, tailored signage and video to act as enticing street theatre.
A A
Once inside the double height space provides drama in the form of the curving undulation of backlit fins. The pink glow to the perimeter walls and shopfront employ new corporate colours. Unique details include such items as the tall open powder coated grill; a security screen when the tenancy is closed and a feature back drop to display cases of the tenancy during the day. The integration of disciplines was a key in solving the puzzle of this tenancy concept. There are no propriety items in the tenancy, all is custom. This necessitated a direct relationship between Woodland Shopfitting and Inarc Design during the design process as well as the construction of many one to one scale models to confirm proportions and fixing. ◗

National Australia Bank – Vos Construction & Joinery TAS INTERIOR FITOUT OF THE YEAR
SNAP SHOT Client: National Australia Bank Location: Docklands VIC Fitout: Vos Construction & Joinery Size of project: 9,000 square metres Commencing with the external of the NAB building being triangular in shape in order to fit on the land available, this shape has provided a unique structure which extends through to the fitout. With offices located on the upper level, they wrap around an internal open area which extends from the roof atrium down 12 levels. When entering the building from the lower levels you are greeted by contrasting features of timber and metal,
32 |
and this is highlighted on level two with the theatrette. This area is lined with solid ironbark timber slats and contrasting powdercoated metal panels which are angular and perforated, and also line a huge sliding pantry door. The most unique aspects of this fitout are on level three, with six internal faceted structures, finished in contrasting solid Amercian Oak timber slats and blackened steel. This provides a great standout to their surrounds and the open area of the atrium as their backdrop. The project was as for other multistorey fitouts with the complexities of accessing the building—this required good communication and being able to coordinate labour, materials and working alongside corresponding trades.
The six faceted structures were a real challenge as the timber structures were very hands-on with site manufacture and installation. With no CAD or template methods the timber structures were fully built onsite and insitu. However, with the transition of time, a huge learning curve resulted and the way the structure was commenced was very different to the way the final process was completed. For the metal clad structures, this initially commenced also as a hands-on approach with site templating of substrates which were taken off site for manufacture. Again, this also evolved and a site measure applied to CAD method resulted in the final structure being completed in an offsite manner and proved to be a far more efficient process. ◗
Paspaley Pearls – Stag Shopfittings VIC INTERIOR FITOUT OF THE YEAR / AUSTRALIAN MADE AWARD - RETAIL
SNAP SHOT Client: Paspaley Pearls Location: Crown Casino, Melbourne VIC Fitout: Stag Shopfittings Size of project: 50 square metres
Traditional Australian pearling company, Paspaley Pearls, commenced a worldwide search to get the best internationally recognised retail designers, Australian architects and shopfitters for the rollout of its new luxury concept starting with Crown Casino, Melbourne. The concept was completely prototyped in Stag Shopfittings' Bayswater factory in March 2013 with Carbondale’s Architects, F2’s local architects and the Paspaley board inspecting different materials and colour schemes to get the best result. The floor pattern, wall layout and ceiling design are all integrated to highlight individual merchandising features. Special finishes were sourced worldwide including handmade custom fabrics and leather. Generally all hardware items were
A A
of the highest quality and not available in Australia. The unique shopfront design features vertical strands of LEDs representing pearl strands, programmed to customised illuminated patterns. ◗

Apollo Health – Masterplanners Design + Construct WA INTERIOR FITOUT OF THE YEAR / BEST USE OF MAJOR SPONSORS PRODUCT LAMINEX
SNAP SHOT Client: Apollo Health Location: Armadale shopping centre WA Fitout: Masterplanners Design + Construct Size of project: 800 square metres
34 |
Apollo Health is a new brand offering a variety of medical services. Masterplanners Design + Constuct has worked for this client in other areas for the past 17 years and have an excellent working relationship. This new venture addresses many of the health issues the client and his partner are so passionate about. They have set about creating a very experienced team and delivering an excellent all round service in one location. Old retail tenancies were converted to one large medical centre. Doctors’ consultation rooms, skin room, procedure rooms, x-ray, pathology and dental rooms are all accommodated. Located in Armadale City shopping centre it provides a walk in and appointment service. Existing stores were defitted for the 800 square metre space to be made available.
Set on a slab above a service station, open for 24 hours, required intense liaison with service station owners for procedural issues such as core drilling. Over 60 holes were core drilled for plumbing provision. Safety plans and monitoring were critical to the fitout. New windows were cut through the tilt up to allow better light and feeling of space into consultation rooms. Electrical, data and communications were complex and required a sizable IT room and a great deal of coordination. The level of finishes was not compromised and a very comfortable and reassuring interior was the result. Laminex product was used extensively throughout the whole project. ◗
The Daily Bagel – Diverse Shopfitters INTERIOR FITOUT KIOSKS
SNAP SHOT Client: The Daily Bagel Location: Perth WA Fitout: Diverse Shopfitters Size of project: 38 square metres The Daily Bagel is fast becoming a food favourite among discerning Perth CBD city workers. The 9x4 metre kiosk is located in City Square and features a cantilevered timber canopy that clearly defines the space in the busy thoroughfare. The timber is a combination of selected recycled skip dressed karri and blackbutt beams with a clear 2pac coating. This gives The Daily Bagel a rustic look with tones of weathered wood evoking feelings of a
traditional bake house. Heavy wooden crates hang from the canopy on black metal chains providing a showcase for the products on offer and lending the kiosk a funky industrial feel. This is contrasted with the contemporary display cases with stone counter tops providing a hard wearing, low maintenance working surface. City Square is a recent addition to Perth’s CBD and the site was undergoing major construction at the time of the fitout. Careful coordination and project management were crucial to delivering the project successfully. The construction phase of the job was completed in just 12 days. Site access was very challenging and much of the material was carried to site by hand. In addition, several engineering issues were addressed during construction.
A A
The cantilevered canopy alone weighed close to 3 tonnes. During pre-installation checks, the suspended slab floor was found to be only 100mm thick in places and unable to safely support the massive weight of the canopy. A load balancing and reinforcing solution was developed by the structural engineer and implemented by the Diverse Shopfitters team. The end result is a significant timber structure that appears to float effortlessly above the kiosk. This striking overhead display gives The Daily Bagel a distinct signature in the arcade. ◗

The Way of Tea – RJR Developments INTERIOR FITOUT UP TO $150,000
SNAP SHOT Client: The Way of Tea Location: Woolloongabba QLD Fitout: RJR Developments Size of project: 20 square metres
36 |
Being recommended to one of Brisbane’s reputable building companies to manufacture high end detailed joinery for its modern office refurbishment was a huge attribute to RJR Developments. A lot of research and thought was involved with the design of The Way of Tea, which reflected on the amount of detail required to produce the completed project. A variety of material was used throughout this project including sheet metal reveals and trims, recessed copper panels with a detailed pattern grooved into the back, and solid timber supported by architectural fittings. All of this was to be manufactured with zero tolerance. Working with copper always has its challenges due to its soft nature and the
oxidation process. Careful handling was required at times. All joinery was made with zero tolerance as the design and use of materials would not allow for any adjusting/fitting onsite. Designed to reflect the traditional tea ceremony certain aspects were replicated to reflect this Japanese ritual. The Tokonoma allows for the display of flowers, while the wash basin is for the ritual of washing one’s hands before undertaking the tea ceremony. The display includes bell recess, a symbol of the traditional call to ceremony. These were just a few of the detailed joinery units required to complete this very detailed and challenging project. ◗

Guardian Pharmacy – Dixon & Swanson Shopfitters INTERIOR FITOUT BETWEEN $150,001 - $300,000
SNAP SHOT Client: Guardian Pharmacy (Edward Tanzil, Charlie Lahoud and Hannah Trinh) Location: T2 Terminal at Sydney Domestic Airport Fitout: Dixon & Swanson Shopfitters Size of project: 118 square metres The brief to Dixon and Swanson Shopfitters was fairly comprehensive, the client had very definite ideas of what they required and how they wanted to achieve it. Dixon & Swanson Shopfitters were given the task of turning the empty new site into a new Guardian Pharmacy that complied with the client’s needs and wants, Sigmas Corporate requirements and SACL’s extremely stringent design and fitout requirements.
The shop fitout had to be carried out over a four week period. It was extremely important to have this tenancy fitted out on time as it had quite an impact on numerous other shops around it. The client was trading out of a temporary site across the isle from their current location and had to vacate by a certain date so the new tenants could move into their temporary site. This is fairly common in the airport and very stressful trying to make everything fall into place by set dates. One of the many issues on this project was actually gaining access to the site, this starts well before you can get on site and takes an enormous amount of time and resources. All trades that work within Sydney Airport require security passes (ASIC’s).
Another issue Dixon & Swanson Shopfitters faced is the deliveries of shopfittings, tools, etc, this is made very difficult as all deliveries must be made between 9.30pm and 8.30am, and you also have to have security with you at all times. On completion of the fitout, there were two more hurdles—obtaining final sign off and being allowed to trade including the Occupational Certificate from the ABC (Airport Building Controller) and also final sign off from SACL. With a lot of cooperation from our clients, Sigma and all contractors the project was finally completed within the required time frame and to everyone’s satisfaction. ◗

Bose Carindale – Tu Projects INTERIOR FITOUT BETWEEN $300,001 - $500,000
SNAP SHOT Client: Bose Location: Westfield Carindale QLD Fitout: Tu Projects Size of project: 275 square metres Bose stores reflect the American company's strengths of exceptionally engineered products with cutting edge technology that enhance your life experience. Bose Carindale was the third store Tu Projects had built for the highly lauded business and it is a fine showcase of modern experiential retail design from Bose's US head office. Built on a 275 square metre site, during Westfield Carindale's major upgrade in mid-2012, the store encourages customers
38 |
to not only listen to the products' quality, but to touch and play with them as well. From the fully enclosed theatre room, to the living room setups, to the various gondolas and wall displays—you can literally try every Bose product before you buy. Creating this retail environment exposes every element of the fitout to the customer—meaning every finish, every detail needs to be just right. Tu Projects recognised that if customers saw a flaw in the shop this may reflect on the customer's perception of the Bose brand and for that reason every detail had to be just right. This quality starts from the American maple flooring up to the European Oak cabinetry and the completely acoustically panelled linings. The whole store and its products are also highlighted by the
frameless glass curtain wall shopfront that gives the effect of being almost invisible. With significant lighting loads, spotlighting specific displays and integrated, but concealed electrical connections for all products—the electrical planning and fitout created real challenges. The joinery included local manufacture from Brisbane's Arc Joinery, along with items imported from Bose's international supplier in Germany. Marrying these details and finishes into a cohesive and seamless outcome presented a real challenge in both planning and delivery. This was complicated by the very compressed three and a half week build time during a major shopping centre rebuild. Ultimately, Bose Carindale is a store that works because it looks and feels just right. ◗
Michael Kors – Sidgreaves INTERIOR FITOUT BETWEEN $500,001 - $1MILLION
SNAP SHOT Client: Michael Kors Location: Westfield Sydney NSW Fitout: Sidgreaves Size of project: 173 square metres Michael Kors Westfield Sydney is the first Australian store and is a flagship store for the brand incorporating its premium concept. The fitout was undertaken by Sidgreaves, based on the design concept from Michael Kors New York. The store’s concept provides an impressive striking interior of high gloss white acrylic and glass finishes with reflective mirror polished stainless steel detailing to create a sparkling environment to showcase its products.
The shopfront and interior space on both facades are occupied by large illuminated acrylic glass podiums with seemingly seamless joints between the panels to create a floating backlit platform suitable for staff to stand on and merchandise the displays. The majority of interior joinery was manufactured overseas and due to the nature of the store design with fine detailing and simple, clean lines, it did not allow for flexibility in the site installation. The accuracy of the site setout was critical and accurate information was only available one week into the onsite schedule, resulting in a very tight fitout period. The deep illuminated podiums in both shopfronts, extending into the shop, needed to be designed and constructed so
A A
that they could bear the weight of a person merchandising the space and provide a seamless glow of light. It was agreed that these would be constructed locally to ensure they married with the shopfront framing, also constructed locally. The feature backlit signage over glass engraved with the MK charm logo set in front of the mirror inside the laneway window down the side was difficult to build due to the presence of wall joinery immediately behind inside the shop, that only provided a 600mm wide access door into the window. Access to the window would not have been possible to install the signage, glass and mirror once the joinery and door was installed, therefore the entire display was built back to front. ◗

Hugo Boss Crown Casino – Sidgreaves INTERIOR FITOUT OVER $1 MILLION
SNAP SHOT Client: Hugo Boss Crown Casino Location: Melbourne VIC Fitout: Sidgreaves Size of project: 548 square metres Hugo Boss ventured into the Crown Casino with its Selection store concept when Crown Casino made a decision to upgrade its existing retailer mix by encouraging more luxury brands into existing tenancies. Hugo Boss took over the existing tenancies previously occupied by Witchery and half of that by Guess to transform the space into one large space divided into ‘rooms’. The fitout was undertaken by Sidgreaves and the design by Hugo Boss shop
40 |
designers Hollin + Radoske located in Frankfurt, Germany. The 5 metre high ground floor façade and ground floor space represent a grand lobby-style entrance to the store with only merchandising displays, a custom designed LED acrylic glass shard chandelier and a large screen TV enticing you down the stairs into the main part of the store located on the lower level. The main shop is divided into separate identifiable rooms for each clothing range with a central hub combining men’s and women’s accessories. The rear room can be closed off with sliding paneled doors to form a separate VIP/pre-sell room with its own fitting room and foyer. The sales counter is tucked away off the central hub in separate dedicated
foyer space, with the staff providing a ‘tray service’ for transactions. It was originally proposed that the GF lobby would feature a larger staircase and void opening to provide more vision into the lower level. Unfortunately the size was governed by the existing building structure and basically the void opening was confined between the tenancy wall at basement level, the rear wall at ground floor and the two large structural cross beams spanning down each side. The LED chandelier was custom fabricated in Germany and assembled locally with only a simple mudmap to provide an assembly guide for the considerable number of random acrylic shards and solid tubes, which hang through the ceiling panels above. ◗

Rose Clinic – Masterplanners Design + Construct INTERIOR FITOUT HEALTH AND BEAUTY
SNAP SHOT Client: David Jones (Rose Clinic) Location: Perth WA Fitout: Masterplanners Design + Construct
Masterplanners Design + Construct was awarded the contract to fit out the Rose Clinic located in David Jones Hay St, Perth. Breast cancer is increasing and the convenience of being tested at a major department store provides a great location for many women. The fitout had its own challenges. It included an x-ray room which required compliance. Working in an operating large department store, which is open seven days a week, means much of the works is required to be carried out at night, with fire sprinklers isolated. There was no operational good lift during the defit and fitout so that caused further logistical issues. However, the project was completed with minimal disruption.
Laminex products were used for the kitchen, reception counter and x-ray room. “Thanks to Harry and Franz for the great job on the Rose Clinic, the attention to detail and quality of work was unsurpassed,” says Paul Changson, project manager at David Jones. ◗

Hornsby RSL – Ryde Joinery COMMERCIAL FITOUT UP TO $500,000 / OUTSTANDING USE OF TIMBER
SNAP SHOT Client: Hornsby RSL Location: Hornsby NSW Fitout: Ryde Joinery The joinery fitout at Hornsby RSL could be best described as a rustic yet modern design with large scale renovation works completed over two levels to the internal and external areas of the club. The scope of joinery works included decorative feature timber cladding to the bar counters, wine display units, servery walls and columns as well as banquette seating, stone benchtops, ceilings, decorative screens and the like. The majority of works within the club were made of a rustic wood design with a variety
42 |
of patterns using a recycled wood finish. Some of the other materials used throughout the project included, but were not limited to, stone, veneers, fabrics, compact laminates, colourback glass, laser cut plywood screens, metalwork and polished woods. This project exemplifies the growing trend of the use of recycled woods as virtually every surface Ryde Joinery was requested to clad was done so in this material. The recycled timber specification brought along some challenges but on the other hand was also quite easy to work with in some scenarios. Site management was important within this project as a majority of the works were completed on site. The centrepiece of the project was the layout of the timber panels to the front of the main bar and servery walls
which required much energy and persistence from the site team to ensure the panels were completed to the highest quality. Several of the specified materials used had to be thoroughly investigated to ensure that they could be used for their intended purpose. An example of this was the tea trick sticks which were affixed to the ceilings over the dining area. Therefore, much time was spent pre-production developing details and testing samples to ensure the joinery could be installed as per the design intent. The completion of the Hornsby RSL project has been a rewarding experience for Ryde Joinery, saying this project has further increased its appreciation of the various uses of timber within the commercial environment. â——
Barooga Sports Club – Ryde Joinery COMMERCIAL FITOUT BETWEEN $500,001 - $1 MILLION
SNAP SHOT Client: Barooga Sports Club Location: Barooga VIC Fitout: Ryde Joinery Size of project: 2,000 square metres The joinery fitout at Barooga Sports Club could be best described as a contemporary, new age design with large scale renovation works completed to the food court, family dining and children’s play areas. The scope of joinery works included the reception desk counter, bar counters, banquette seats, curved blade screen canopies, cladding to walls and ceilings, display cupboards and the like. The majority of works within the club were made of a complicated and
detailed design with a multitude of curved surfaces and different finishes. Some of the materials used throughout the project included, but were not limited to, stone, specialty finished metalwork, laminates, European fabrics, custom routered plywood and polished woods. The complexity of the project brought along with it some interesting challenges, some of which included the travelling distance between Ryde Joinery and the club, the custom design of nearly all the joinery items, the time constraints to complete the final stage of the project and difficulties in procuring specified materials from overseas suppliers. The distance between Sydney and Barooga, which is situated in rural Melbourne, required Ryde Joinery to

schedule its site visits and deliveries efficiently. Communication between the client and Ryde Joinery was imperative to ensure that joinery required was delivered on time and to program. Meetings were held regularly between the architect, client and Ryde Joinery to ensure the final product required was met and to the high standard required by the club. Barooga Sports Club was completed in stages to ensure the club remained operational throughout the works. The final stage of the project presented a challenge as the time for completion was limited for the quantity of works which were to be produced. All in all, despite a few obstacles along the way, the end result was a spectacularly detailed, one of a kind fitout creating a contemporary and futuristic feel. ◗

AMF Bowling Centre – Crosbie Projects COMMERCIAL FITOUT OVER $1 MILLION
SNAP SHOT Client: AMF Bowling Centre Location: Penrith NSW Fitout: Crosbie Projects Size of project: 3,325 square metres After completing several smaller projects for AMF, Crosbie Projects was selected as the head contractor for the new AMF Bowling Centre at Penrith. The purposely constructed industrial building was handed to Crosbie Projects as an empty shell. The task at hand was mammoth and involved fitting out every square centimetre of the 3,000 square metre space and handing over a fully operational centre in less than 12 weeks. The design consisted of a number of distinct areas
44 |
including a commercial kitchen, numerous offices, control counter, bar, pro shop, bowling lanes, function rooms, M9 laser skirmish facility and an amusement area incorporating bumper cars. With so many different components to the project, including a new mechanical system to service the entire building and a complex electrical scope, an extensive project plan and program was created involving a complex structure of stakeholders and project managers mandated to strictly adhere to set protocols. Strict site coordination, distinctly defined roles, processes and procedures had to be managed and enforced to ensure that every construction milestone was met with minimal errors and delays. Continuity of work was priority and also the
biggest challenge considering that there were as many as 100 workers on the site on any given day. In order to meet these challenges, Crosbie Projects set up various ‘command’ centres around the site and manned them with highly skilled foremen. This site management structure created a kind of sub-committee who communicated regularly on the progress in their own defined area of the site. This highly organised and efficient approach allowed for the senior manager to fragment the job into manageable bite size pieces and ensure that there was enough resource in any given area. Much of the success can also be attributed to the many hours spent meeting with tradespeople and suppliers before the project began. ◗
McDonald’s Butler – Associated Shopfitters FOOD/RESTAURANT FITOUT UP TO $250,000
SNAP SHOT Client: McDonald’s Butler Location: Perth WA Fitout: Associated Shopfitters Size of project: 490 square metres McDonald’s Butler restaurant was completed in December 2012 and was last in a surge of six new McDonald’s restaurants and three remodels for 2012, with the majority of works crammed into the second half of the year. Associated Shopfitters (ASF) was awarded the majority of the works which included one country store. Programming and regular site meetings were critical as a new builder was awarded construction for the project. Although this was not an
issue, the builder/shopfitter combination from previous fitouts required a renewed working relationship to keep the same rhythm and flow required to achieve handover date. The restaurant had incorporated the new dual point service for ordering meals at one counter and picking up your order at another counter using electronic ticket number system. The dual point and McCafe counters were clad in 20mm Caesarstone to the counter top, front and ends with polished solid oak timber panels incorporated into the décor. The counter stonework is a large visual impact of the décor and though each store may look similar to the other, each counter is custom measured and template for the best possible finishing detail.
A A
The wall graphics give the most visual impression when you walk into the store. The graphic substrates are manufactured and installed by ASF with the graphic film printed and installed to walls and glass by the graphic contractor. The timber grain laminate and grooved wall panels manufactured and installed by ASF complete filling the open wall spaces between the wall graphics. Although the seating, tables and select joinery items are standard McDonald's supplier items, you can’t replace the custom measure and local manufacture of the stone counters, laminated wall panels, graphics, feature bulkheads and built-in joinery to front and back of house areas to give that award winning look. ◗

Koko Black Chadstone – Tu Projects FOOD/RESTAURANT FITOUT BETWEEN $250,001 - $500,000
SNAP SHOT Client: Koko Black Location: Chadstone Shopping Centre VIC Fitout: Tu Projects Size of project: 180 square metres The Melbourne-born artisan chocolatier Koko Black has grown into a real homegrown success story by combining superior quality products with a unique retail experience. The Koko Black product is a more mature and serious quality chocolate than many of the brands that have expanded into retail in recent years. This passionate focus on chocolates of superior quality and an eye for every detail is reflected in the look, feel and finish of
46 |
Koko Black's retail 'salons'—one of the most recent of which was built by Tu Projects at Melbourne's Chadstone Shopping Centre. The 180 square metre shop combines a strong retail offering of Koko Black's fine packaged products and individual chocolates with a ‘dine-in’ experience where customers can combine beautiful sweets with hot and cold drinks with a chocolate accent. Therefore the build required all of the skills of Tu Projects to provide a finish worthy of the beautiful chocolates on display. The design which incorporated multiple timber finishes from oak flooring offset with Ardor accents, to the cabinetry, to the reflected oak ceiling has an extremely natural aesthetic. The chocolate hues of these finishes create a link between the product and the retail environment and nature itself.
The cabinetry integrates a range of custom ambient showcases for the chocolates, all built by Arc Joinery in Brisbane. The cabinets include travertine tops and frameless glass gantries to maximise the presentation of the chocolates on offer. Brass rods connect the floor and ceiling and add a subtle opulence to the design. The build took place over a three and a half week period in the demanding build environment of Chadstone mall. Working closely to match the client's vision for the store was not only an issue of aesthetics as critical practical issues needed to be considered such as installing new air conditioning units suitable to maintain the right climate for the display of chocolates. ◗

Limestone Bar & Grill – VOS Construction & Joinery FOOD/RESTAURANT FITOUT BETWEEN $500,001 - $750,000
SNAP SHOT Client: Limestone Bar & Grill Location: Canberra Airport ACT Fitout: Vos Construction & Joinery Limestone Bar & Grill for Emirates Leisure Retail Australia (ELRA) was a challenging and successful project. A fully prefabricated steel sub-frame was engineered and manufactured to meet logistical and cost effective measures for transport from Vos Construction's Hobart workshop to Canberra Airport and support of the 13x6 metre canopy bulkhead. Built to precise site anchoring points and with limited access areas for such sized components, the canopy had
staggered jointing and bolted together on site which all had to be fitted in conjunction with the external cladding to within a millimetre tolerance. The structure of the perimeter wall had to be constructed of a lightweight but strong skeletal frame to be able to have the yellow transparent handmade glass tile applied, which had to be a rear illuminated feature for the main bar face. An extensive and exhaustive process was undertaken in the application of the tiles onto a transparent substrate, whilst providing enough light to filter through the back of the glass from the strategically concealed LED strip lights. Construction of the cool room in a kiosk environment, in the middle of an airport concourse, provided adequate challenges
for the site crews. With a concrete slab over the existing floor structure, plumbing and the waterproofing requirements along with viewing panels were incorporated into the cool room to attract an interesting aspect for the consumer of the cooling of the beer barrels. The main centre column has cantilevered boxed sections for display and monitor spaces which is to appear as floating in front of a back drop of a mosaic of specified and nominated sizes of hand-made to order coloured glass tiles which doubled as the splash back to the designated preparation areas. An extensive stone bar top compliments the entire design and application of the bar which also had been fully pre-fabricated to expedite fitting on site. â——

Basil’s Fine Foods – Diverse Shopfitters FOOD/RESTAURANT FITOUT BETWEEN $750,001 - $1 MILLION / BEST USE OF SPONSORS PRODUCT POLYFLOR
SNAP SHOT Client: Basil’s Fine Foods Location: Mindarie WA Fitout: Diverse Shopfitters Size of project: 600 square metres Basil's Fine Foods is a design, construction and fitout project that features high end finishes and expert space planning to provide a great customer experience. Formerly named Mindarie So Fresh, the owners wanted to remodel and create a high end, fine food grocer. Having seen some of Diverse Shopfitters’ work at other upmarket grocers around Perth, and after speaking to the owners of these establishments about their fitout experience, they contacted Diverse
48 |
Shopfitters to make their plans a reality. Due to the growth of the business, the original space had become crowded. Lines of sight were virtually non-existent and it was becoming difficult to add new stock. The opportunity to knock out a wall and combine two adjacent tenancies to increase space was the perfect time to rebrand and rebuild. A cafe was added giving customers an area to sit and relax while shopping and the upstairs office and administration section were remodelled as part of the refit. The end result is a stylish and cohesive environment that offers shoppers a much better experience. The success of the new design and fitout was reflected with a huge increase in turnover even as the fitout was being completed.
“We are very happy with the final outcome,” says Basil Borgomastro of Basil's Fine Foods. “John Gullotto and his team were very professional throughout the entire project, effectively coordinating and overseeing the required trades and ensuring that all work was completed to a high quality standard. “Diverse Shopfitters were able to complete the project, a major demolition and reconstruction with minimal disruption to our customers, and by sectioning off the store we were able to stay open throughout.” ◗
Vapiano – Tu Projects FOOD/RESTAURANT FITOUT OVER $1 MILLION
SNAP SHOT Client: Vapiano Location: Melbourne VIC Fitout: Tu Projects Size of project: 800 square metres The crisp and clean interiors of limed oak, white tiles and gleaming show kitchens within Vapiano Melbourne, show no signs of the enormously challenging build process for this 800 square metre restaurant. The site occupies two storeys in a totally redeveloped office building bridging Flinders Lane and Collins Street in Melbourne's CBD. It was the international group's first restaurant in Australia outside Queensland, the home state of Vapiano Australia's owners Will and Rob Cooke.
The 12-week build process was complicated by ongoing delays in handover of the site and critical base building works from the primary site contractor and ongoing changes in allowable hours of work for certain trades. The Tu Projects team and its contractors had to work all hours of the day and night to open on time, whilst managing four different and conflicting sets of plans from architects, designers and project managers from all over the world. No less complicated was coordinating deliveries to the restrictive site from suppliers across Australia and the world. Most challenging of all was fitting critical joinery from the German supplier which arrived only two days prior to handover. The 245-seat restaurant and bar
A A
showcases all that is best in Vapiano. Starting from the entry off Flinders lane you feel you are in a venue of quality. The entry acts as both lobby, welcome station and bar and is dominated by the glass and stainless steel balustraded staircase taking you up to the first floor and main dining level. This complex structure was effectively design engineered on site after cutting out the huge void from the concrete slab on the Collins Street level. On that level, the dining areas meander around the staircase in both cost internal nooks around the fire place and iconic olive trees, to expansive views of flinders lane through full height glass windows to external verandahs for al fresco dining. The central focus is the fully open kitchen along with the showpiece manifattura area where the fresh pasta is produced. â——

Crosbie Projects head office AUSTRALIAN MADE AWARD - COMMERCIAL
SNAP SHOT Client: Crosbie Projects Location: Green Acre NSW Fitout: Crosbie Projects Size of project: 200 square metres Crosbie Projects insisted that its new head office showcases the meticulous detail that it specialises in providing to its own clients. Appointing Giant Design, the brief was simple: ‘bring the outdoors in’. This design requirement stemmed from the fact that Crosbie company directors, George Karam and Albert Haddad, love the outdoors and this project evolved into a tribute to the beauty of nature. The design concept intended to showcase some of the best products and
50 |
design elements available today and the result is Crosbie Projects now operates from an office environment which is true to its original brief. The atrium which graces the centre of the office entry spans the entire three levels and features a stunning combination of polished concrete floors, polished black stucco and three colour aged plaster finished walls, accented with spectacular dark oak wooden floors, steps and ceilings. The timbers used were picked specifically for their character and natural rustic feel. Lush green trees and a collection of fascinating live reptiles showcased in their own desert habitat, adds whimsy and curiosity every time a visitor walks in through the front doors.
The internal office space was designed open plan to foster camaraderie and encourage the feeling of wide open spaces. Cabinetry hangs from the ceiling to ensure that work spaces are uncluttered. The few closed offices around the perimeter feature glass wall panels of bygone wired glass, framed with zinc plated custom steel sections, ensuring that the internal office walls of mosaic aged bricks and barn oak panelling can be seen by all. Casual recycled oak seating benches upholstered in natural green and earthy hued gingham fabric sit under wide uncovered windows. The toilet doors contribute to the ambiance and are made of recycled oak barn doors with antique black iron hardware. ◗
