Carine Thai

Designed around how the venue actually trades, the Carine Thai Cuisine fitout gives equal weight to guest comfort and service efficiency within a compact tenancy. Considered changes to the layout separated front-of-house dining from back-of-house operations and opened up the flow without adding to the footprint. The dining area now reads as a destination in its own right, comfortable and cohesive rather than compromised by its size.


The Carine Thai Cuisine fitout works within a limited footprint, with the layout carefully planned to support both front-of-house dining and back-of-house operations, while maintaining a clear and intuitive flow throughout the space.


The design centred on optimising key areas, including customer seating, service zones, and kitchen support spaces. Circulation was considered to ensure smooth movement for both staff and guests, allowing the space to operate efficiently during peak service periods.



Lighting and shopfront elements were introduced to strengthen the presence of the restaurant within the centre, contributing to a more inviting and defined identity.


The result is a well-resolved fitout that maximises usability within the available space, supporting efficient operations while delivering a comfortable dining experience, delivered through one team, accountable from first concept to handover.

Leederville Residence This renovation focused on refining key functional areas of the home while creating a more cohesive and contemporary living environment. The project centred on the transformation of the kitchen, bathroom, and laundry, with careful consideration given to improving usability, storage, and overall flow. Existing layouts were reworked to better support everyday living, while maintaining continuity with the surrounding spaces that remained unchanged. A major focus of the renovation was the kitchen, where updated cabinetry, integrated appliances, an expanded island bench, and a revised pantry layout helped create a more functional and efficient central space. The bathroom and laundry were similarly refreshed through new finishes, fixtures, joinery, and improved spatial planning. Throughout the renovation, updated materials, lighting, and detailing were selected to create a cleaner and more cohesive visual language across each area, balancing practicality with a refined residential feel. The result is a considered renovation that enhances the functionality of the home while delivering a more resolved and modern day-to-day living experience.
