The project started out as an expansion of Ownworld’s existing space located in Darlinghurst. As the client brief developed the project soon turned into a total refurbishment of the spaces to deliver a new showroom with a consistent design language.

Applying the premise that Showroom environments exist to enhance the products that live within them, the design philosophy taken was to create a subtle back drop that allowed the products to speak for themselves. The new works comprised the application of a cementitous floor finish throughout to link the spaces, new interconnecting stairs, kitchen, offices, lighting and furniture displays.

Taking a departure from the white gallery approach, intruding a sophisticated palette of grey and black was selected to sit harmoniously with the various product settings Ownworld represent.
