Zaatarland Bakery

A warm welcome, in every detail.

A bakery should make an impression before the first order is placed. Here, a broad curved entrance frames the interior, while warm timber, woven pendant lights and soft counter lighting set the tone.

The display and service counter form the centre of the space. Curved joinery softens the customer-facing edge; the seating carries the same timber tones through the room. An illuminated wall feature adds definition without competing with the product display.

Together, these elements give the venue a consistent identity—from the entrance and ordering point to the places customers sit and stay.

  • Curved entry and customer-facing joinery
  • Integrated display and service counter
  • Timber seating and woven pendant lighting
  • Illuminated wall feature and coordinated finishes

Lonsdale Larder

A place to pause. A space to connect.

A café has to accommodate quick visits and longer stays within the same footprint. Lonsdale Larder combines a prominent food display with a mix of freestanding tables and window-side seating.

Timber surfaces bring warmth to the tiled counter and floor. The ceiling feature and pendant lighting connect the service zone to the dining area, while the long bench beside the glazing makes use of the natural light.

The material palette repeats across the room, creating a clear relationship between the counter, customer seating and smaller finishing details.

  • Tiled display counter and service area
  • Window bench and flexible table seating
  • Timber ceiling feature and pendant lighting
  • Coordinated tile, timber and planted details

Shamiat Restaurant

Character that carries through the space.

Character is carried through this dining space in the ceiling, furniture and wall finishes. The decorative overhead pattern gives the restaurant a recognisable centrepiece, balanced by warm timber tables and seating.

Contrasting wall treatments define the room, while the arrangement of tables establishes smaller places to gather within the larger dining area. The counter continues the palette through to the service point.

Explore the gallery for the relationship between the dining space, the feature ceiling and the details around the counter.

  • Dining layout and timber furniture
  • Decorative feature ceiling
  • Contrasting wall and floor finishes
  • Counter details and service area

Luxe Lash Line

A considered space for the client experience.

The client experience begins at reception. Soft curves and timber detailing give the entry a welcoming feel, while the illuminated mirrors create a repeating rhythm through the salon.

Workstations sit within a coordinated palette of light walls, reflective surfaces and darker floor finishes. The reception counter provides a clear focal point without closing off the view through the interior.

It is a space shaped by the relationship between arrival, service and the details clients notice at close range.

  • Curved timber reception counter
  • Illuminated mirrors and workstations
  • Coordinated wall and floor finishes
  • Reception-to-service spatial flow

Bathroom Renovation

A quieter moment, every day.

A freestanding bath becomes the focus of this bathroom, set beside full-height plantation shutters that bring in filtered natural light. The simple white form stands out against the darker tiled surfaces.

The vanity combines a generous benchtop with storage below, while the broad mirror helps the room feel more open. The bath, glazing and vanity each have their own place, giving the space a clear, balanced layout.

For your own renovation, we can discuss how layout, storage, fixtures and finishes work together—starting with the way you use the room every day.

  • Freestanding bath and floor-mounted tap
  • Plantation shutters and filtered natural light
  • Dark tiled feature surfaces
  • Vanity storage and broad mirror
