“We saw an opportunity to innovate our business and look to the future of the commercial landscape, enabling our clients to do business more easily and efficiently,” Harvey Norman Commercial Victoria director, Glenda Bailey said.
“We are future-proofing the way we do business and ensuring we’re at the top of our game – it just made commercial sense.”
Melbourne design firm StStyle was tasked with creating an on-trend space that celebrates the city’s edgy, industrial feel and features artworks by Australian artist Mike Makatron. Key highlights include dark tones, reclaimed timber, feature lighting and lush moss installations.
With a nod to industrial style, Steve Mooney and Travis Cheriton from StStyle brought to life the vision for an interactive space where clients can see, touch and compare their ideal appliances and sanitary ware.
“From the 150-year-old Croatian feature tiles to the reclaimed wooden railway sleepers and our indoor moon, which comprises of 3,200 circadian LED lights. We’re all about the details – and that’s before we even get to the outstanding products we sell or the dedicated experienced team we have of sales specialists, estimators and project coordinators that are facilitating our end-to-end project management, after sales and warranty experience.
