Project Information
Located in an industrial office park at 165 The Strand, Kada and Workscape now share the same tenancy, which is a stark contrast to their old woolshed just around the corner separated by an inter-tenancy wall.

Catalyst's design approach emphasized the existing industrial elements, and we enhanced the open ceiling by providing cable trays to tidy up the exposed wiring.
Polished concrete, white walls, and ample natural light created a neutral backdrop for Kada to showcase their collections. The staff were positioned at the front to ensure a warm welcome for prospective clients.
The overarching industrial style was contrasted with warm lighting and soft natural finishes, which achieved a comfortable and inviting workspace.
Steering away from a typical manned reception, the front of house area is referred to as the ‘welcome area’. The statement piece is a striking solid stone kiosk, paired with natural timber veneer wall panelling which provides a memorable first impression.
Carefully considered warm accent lighting helped to bring attention to the company branding.
