Commercial

Our experience in office fitout, retail and hospitality projects keeps us sensitive to the special pressures that apply to commercial design and construction. Our commercial clients look to us for clear communication, timely delivery, cost effective design and an ability to negotiate complex regulations.

As much as we are a design firm, the core of our business is communication, and we will guide you through the design, documentation and construction process from first consultation to move-in day. Nobody knows your business like you do; so the more involved you are, the better fit your building will be.

We use two primary strategies for keeping designs cost and time effective: Simplicity and adaptive reuse. We believe that unnecessary design complexity kills fast, affordable construction; and our aim is to look at what you already have, and to use that first.

Simple spaces with less waste can be cheaper, more sustainable and easier to use without sacrificing character, light or warmth. We’re proud of the beautiful spaces that these strategies help us make.

We are experienced in obtaining permits for commercial projects in sensitive locations, including inner-city heritage sites. Our network of specialised consultants, from building surveyors and heritage advisors to fire engineers and disabled access specialists, provide expert advice on complex compliance issues.

Whether your business is big or small, or still just a sketch, we will work closely with you to understand its needs.
