The recently completed Dakabin Youth Hub represents a pivotal step in Children’s Health Queensland’s commitment to delivering accessible, collaborative health services for young Queenslanders.
Located at the entry of Dakabin State High School, the project embraces a co-located model that fosters daily visibility and access within a familiar, youth-centric environment.
Generous cathedral ceilings, timber finishes, and a palette designed to promote calm and wellbeing reinforce the building’s dual purpose: as a place of care and a centre for learning.

Central to our design for Chisholm Institute`s Frankston Campus redevelopment was the conceptualisation of a "green spine".
Extending diagonally throughout the grounds, the green spine provides a seamless connection between existing buildings and external recreation areas, creating a welcoming and easy-to-navigate environment for patrons.
Acting as an artery that connects the entire Institute, the spine has also been designed to easily integrate future additions to the campus with existing assets.

The new @channel7 Melbourne studio balances the technical demands of a live broadcast environment with the workplace needs of a fast-paced media organisation.
Integrated within Melbourne Quarter Tower, the design incorporates acoustic treatment, specialist zones and broadcast infrastructure to support both complex production requirements and daily operations.
Material composition, lighting strategy and spatial planning convey the network’s national identity while responding to the operational context and culture of the Melbourne team.

At The Cambrian in Paddington, Gray Puksand’s signage and wayfinding bring clarity and cohesion to a layered, heritage-rich site.
A refined material palette, crafted typography and subtle detailing reference the area’s artisan past, guiding residents and visitors through a precinct of restored shopfronts and bespoke residences.
Integrated with architecture by @mhndu and landscape by @janeirwin_landscape, the system enhances legibility and orientation while reinforcing a strong sense of identity and connection to place.

Successful architecture relies on more than design ideas. It demands the integration of technical expertise, creative thinking, and open communication.
In our most recent blog, Senior Associate Ian Hollen shares how his robust architectural experience shapes his collaborative, client-focused approach from sketch to delivery.
"Early in my career, I was focused purely on drawing and designing, but over time, I came to understand that the client is the project. If you do not bring them with you, then even the best design will not succeed," he said.

This Reconciliation Week, we reflect on the importance of cultural engagement and how design can help bridge understanding.
Gray Puksand’s recent workplace design for @Medibank at Melbourne Quarter demonstrates how collaboration with First Nations communities can bring authenticity, identity and meaning into the workplace.
Guided by Uncle Dave Wandin, a Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung Elder, the project team experienced a connection to Country via a private smoking ceremony in the Coranderrk Aboriginal Reserve, which along with ongoing and continued collaboration with Uncle Dave throughout the design process formed the basis for spatial layout, material selection and colour palette.
This collaboration also shaped the ‘Life Force of Water’ design narrative, reflecting the essence of the surrounding environment and significant cultural landmarks on Wurundjeri land.

Underused commercial buildings have the potential to become more inclusive, adaptable and community-focused, if we design for it.
As part of this year’s @ngvmelbourne Melbourne Design Week program, we hosted a panel discussion on the future of the city’s commercial centre.
Nik Tabain and Kelly Wellington were joined by Kriston Symons from @arupgroup and Glen Dyke from Melbourne City Mission to explore how design can help reframe underused buildings.
The conversation explored how commercial spaces could better respond to a changing workforce, while also supporting social value through adaptive reuse, flexible leasing and more inclusive, integrated precincts across the city.
Thank you to all who joined us for this insightful panel.
