Zip Money in the Sydney Design Awards

10Zip60718

It’s time to cast your vote in the Sydney Design Awards and our Zip Money project is in the running! The Sydney Design awards are unique to other industry awards because they focus on the relationship between designer and client and open up the voting to the public.

Our Zip Money project is a great example of how contemporary workplaces are continuing to evolve and previous distinctions between work and recreation are challenged. Spaces within the fitout have been designed to be multi-purpose and not restricted by the lens of typical workplace design thinking.

Part of the project involved constructing an internal staircase that provided the client with the interconnectivity they required for their teams to collaborate. We were limited around the location of this staircase so consequently the planning was affected. The staircase became a standout feature of the new workplace. Zip launched new branding to coincide with their new workplace and we drew upon the new, bright colour palette for inspirationZip Money have a strong, relaxed culture and the design concept focuses on large spaces to enable collaboration & social interaction. In fact, half of the entire workspace is devoted to alternative areas to work and meet as a team.

Environmental graphics were designed by The Bold Collective to add another layer of playfulness with a ‘scrap-booking’ aesthetic. This demonstrated yet again, the impact environmental graphics plays in our interiors.

Our Pernod Ricard project has been well received in the industry, already taking out Silver in the Sydney Design Awards earlier this year. Now it has also been shortlisted in the 2018 IDEA Awards in the Workplaces over 1000sqm Category. Housed in Sydney’s Barangaroo precinct, Pernod Ricard is a design that blurs the boundaries between workplace and hospitality, featuring sophisticated finishes and luxurious detailing to translate the essence of the brand into a three dimensional space. We are so pleased it is being recognised amongst a very fine list of competitors. The shortlisted entries are published in a special edition of Inside Magazine.

We Danced for Life and Won!

Dance_For_Life_2018_feature

We danced our (animal) hearts out and once again took home the Best Costume award at Dance for Life!

Dance For Life, the dance competition that brings together over 700 members of the Architecture and Design community for a fabulous night of performance took place on Friday night. This year the theme was ‘circus’ and because we love to be seen as the wildcard of the industry, we danced to This is Me from The Greatest Showman to demonstrate how comfortable we are in our unusual skin and to explore what happens when circus animals say no more!

More importantly we did it all to raise money for ReachOut, a vital online health service for young people that provides support for mental health issues and aims to reduce suicide rates. Our theme was an added reminder on a night raising awareness for mental health, that it’s okay to be different.

Thanks to all your support and donations we managed to raise $8,765, with over $70,000 raised by teams overall. Donations are still open until the end of this week, if you didn’t get a chance or would still like to contribute. Our target this year was to raise $10,000 and we are so close, so any donation big or small would be much appreciated – you can make a donation here.

Indesignlive have also just posted about the night, featuring some fabulous pics – check it out. Thanks again to those who have already generously donated. We couldn’t have done it without you!
