How to create transformative spaces in every typology
Published
Workspace furniture’s portfolio of products is specifically designed to help Australia’s architects and designers unlock new design possibilities
In the world of design, product specification is so often the key to success. While architecture and spatial planning can lay the foundations of a space, it is products that truly bring it to life, playing off the architectural makeup to inject purpose, interaction, and a visual dialogue that is tangible and material to the end user.
For architects and designers across the country, Workspace Commercial Furniture is the pathway to achieving great design. In operation since 1911, Workspace has showrooms in Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Canberra, and Brisbane, and offers a project-based range of product solutions to the design industry of Australia and abroad.
At the core of the Workspace ethos is curation. With the help of luxury design partnerships, they have built a considered edit of furniture pieces that are diverse and broad in scope, with options for all design typologies on offer. Ideal for smaller sole traders right through to bigger firms that cover multiple project types, the Workspace collection is specifically engineered to meet the needs of designers, whatever they may be.
Office and commercial spaces have long been central to the Workspace mission. As leaders in this space, their collection reflects the changing nature of workplace design, capturing trends in environment and workflow and translating them into a range designed to boost productivity and enhance the overall aesthetic of any commercial space.
From high-performing task chairs like Ambie, to flexible work setups like Domain, Workspace is perfectly positioned to help teams achieve the office of today.
Comfort and safety are paramount in aged care and senior living environments. In answer to this, Workspace’s range of furniture celebrates functionality and practicality, while ensuring elegance and aesthetics are still considered. Pieces like the Cove High Back Armchair help to ensure aged care residents are provided with environments that are beautiful, comfortable, and safe as they age in place.
Versatility and durability are the name of the game in the educational sector, with projects such as Flinders University, Festival Plaza Tower and All Saints Catholic Primary School showing how important well designed pieces are in creating optimised learning spaces. From versatile desks, comfortable seating, and collaborative workstations, the Workspace range is designed to adapt to various teaching methods and learning styles.
As some of the most stringent and complex spaces to design, healthcare environments require the highest level of consideration when it comes to specification. The Workspace healthcare furniture range includes patient chairs and modular seating that meets the requirements of this typology, while still ensuring a comfortable and beautiful environment for patients, staff, and visitors alike.
So too, the scope and experience of Workspace makes them ideally suited to design progressions within the healthcare space, where projects like Bowral Hospital are showing a blueprint for healthcare design that is warmer, richer, and more considered of the symbiosis of health and design.
In the hospitality industry, creating a welcoming and stylish environment is key to providing an exceptional guest experience. Understanding this, the Workspace team has curated solutions for hotels, restaurants, and cafes, including the Wes Chair and Felix Lounge, that combine style with comfort and act as extensions of brands.
As an extension of hospitality, Workspace’s Accommodation sector brings an added level of the bespoke and the elegant, with a range of custom joinery and customised furniture solutions that allow clients to play with every curve, angle, and finish to meet the unique needs of the sector.
