Project Story

Reimagining Workspace for the Modern Era

11 Royal Street Chatswood presented a unique opportunity: to reposition an aging office building into a modern and versatile commercial asset. The goal was to improve leasability, comfort, and code compliance without structural redevelopment.

We developed a staged program that balanced aesthetic transformation with essential upgrades — all delivered with minimal disruption to existing tenants and within tight lease-driven deadlines.

  • Full-Scale Interior Refurbishment
    We transformed outdated office interiors into bright, contemporary commercial suites ready for tenancy. Scope included demolition, new ceiling grids, flooring, and all interior finishes.
  • Multi-Zone Office Planning
    Delivered flexible layouts with open work zones, private meeting rooms, hot-desking hubs, and breakout areas to suit a range of tenant types.
  • Base Building Compliance Upgrades
    Upgraded building services to comply with fire, disability, and energy efficiency standards — including emergency egress lighting and DDA-compliant amenities.
  • Turnkey Tenant Amenities
    Installed brand-new kitchenettes, bathrooms, and end-of-trip facilities to elevate leasing appeal and improve tenant wellbeing.
