Corporate, Government, Education, and Hospitality projects get the full-service approach with this industry leader
August 15th, 2024
Fitout projects can be notoriously difficult to design. Trying to wrangle practical user needs with conveying a brand identity can be hard on its own, but navigating lead times and budget pressures can make the process extra challenging. Recognising this, Bowermans have been changing the fitout game since 1946; offering a full-service approach that matches a beautiful and functional product collection with skilled project management and an inimitable ethos of customer service.
Since they were founded nearly eight decades ago, Bowermans has been supplying furniture for commercial projects around Australia. With their long-term local and international manufacturing partners, they have continuously expanded their product and category ranges, growing over time to meet the changing needs of projects across multiple typologies. From small businesses to large government departments, and multi-stage corporate headquarters to university campuses, their work has been essential in creating successful fitouts for some of the country’s best known brands including the Woolworths Group, Canberra Raiders NRL Club, Ethos Urban, and the Australian National Maritime Museum.
The complete Bowermans experience
Essential to the Bowermans’ offering is their full-service approach, meaning they don’t just supply products, but they also consult, collaborate, plan, and install too. Across every project, they deliver a complete design solution, bringing together a dedicated sales team, experienced in-house designers, and exceptional project managers to cover every touchpoint of the fit out specification process. Bowerman’s clients can relax knowing every detail has been accounted for, and that they’ll receive support and a personalised service from planning to project completion.
This tailor-made approach can also extend to the products themselves, with Bowermans offering clients the ability to specify from a broad catalogue of in-stock ranges, or from bespoke, made-to-order designs. Reflecting the differing lead-times that can come with fitouts, their manufacturing partnerships mean clients can meet deadlines without sacrificing on the quality or range of their specification.
The Bowermans brands
Bowermans have product ranges that meet the needs of all commercial fitouts, with selections spanning modular and height adjustable workstations, task and visitor chairs, breakout areas, activity-based workspaces, executive seating, storage and lockers, monitor arms, and soft wiring.
Their Australian manufacturers are on hand to deliver pieces that are bespoke and locally made, while international connections mean their catalogue also covers some of Europe’s most coveted commercial brands. They are the exclusive Australian distributor for Nowy Styl and its sub-brands, including the German furniture maker Kusch + Co. This year, they have also welcomed iconic Italian brand Billiani into their offering, giving their clients access to the artisanal craftsmanship and contemporary design dialogue synonymous with the Billiani name.
As a platinum member of the Australian Furnishing Research and Development Institute (AFRDI), all products in the Bowermans suite meet recognised certification from the ergonomic standards of AFRDI Blue Stick and BIFMA, as well as the strong environmental standards of the AFRDI Green Tick, along with other models including GECA, FSC and PEFC, and GreenTag.
Whether it’s a home office or a large-scale commercial project, Bowermans are ready to make the fit out process as efficient and simple as possible, while still achieving an end-result that is beautiful and high-performing. With their in-house expertise and local and international manufacturer connections, they are uniquely placed within the Australian market to make any fit out brief a reality, with every step from planning to installation carefully considered.

To honour Chef James Won’s appointment as Gaggenau’s first Malaysian Culinary Partner, we asked the gastronomic luminaire about parallels between Gaggenau’s ethos and his own practice, his multidimensional vision of Modern Malaysian – and how his early experiences of KFC’s accessible, bold flavours influenced his concept of fine dining.

In design, the concept of absence is particularly powerful – it’s the abundant potential of deliberate non-presence that amplifies the impact of what is. And it is this realm of sophisticated subtraction that Gaggenau’s Dishwasher 400 Series so generously – and quietly – occupies.
Wendelbo stands as an example of a family-operated business that has profitably adapted to the modern world without losing sight of its values.
