Right on Trak
Benchwork Trak is proving to be a popular choice, being used in yet another two office projects in the same building.
Designers at Enfold Projects used Benchwork Trak and Miro chairs and were able to individually tailor a specific aesthetic to each tenant by modifying the Trak’s screen upholstery and desktop edging.
The meeting rooms also looked great, featuring white Dart tables with polytec’s new Ravine tops. The new material has a striking resemblance to authentic veneer but is as durable as laminate.
Product Spotlight: Dart Executive Desking
The introduction of Dart Executive Desking steels the spotlight for the Dart range yet again.
Characterised by splayed steel legs, powder coated in black or white, Dart desks are modern and rugged, but still refined.
Available with either a shark nose or straight edge melamine or veneer top, Dart Desking offers a refreshing alternative to traditional executive desking.
Its contemporary look can be extended right throughout the office with Dart meeting and coffee tables.
Come check it out at our showroom in St Peters today!
An Office Built For Today
The combination of ultra modern furnishings with a colour palette to drool over has resulted in an all conquering office fitout for Global Red’s new Sydney office.
No detail has been overlooked by D&C projects, from the carefully selected products and finishes to the colour of the ABS edging on the worktops, upholstery on our Framework screens and melamine finishes.
Our Benchwork workstations teamed with Vigo chairs and Globe pedestals looked brilliant throughout the office and allowed the clients to maximise space and become a catalyst for team work and idea sharing.
We also loved how our Dart tables were a the standout in the office-side kitchen and in the meeting rooms with Sax chairs.
All details came together to create a practical, inviting, inspiring and contemporary workspace.

Add Lounges to Your Workspace
If you want to create a more relaxed workspace then you should consider incorporating lounges throughout your workspace.
They are a fantastic way to encourage collaboration, host informal meetings and give employees a place to unwind on their lunch break.
Traditionally lounges were used just in reception areas however these days the right lounge can be used effectively almost anywhere from breakout rooms, to open-planned spaces to executive offices.
Things to consider when choosing the ideal lounge include ensuring the look, colour and type of upholstery gels with your branding. Other things to consider include the comfort level, likely lifespan of the lounge and whether it includes warranty.
We offer traditional lounges but also more unique commercial solutions like our Hush (in 2 heights),Lani. You can check out all our lounges here.
JAM session
Our new Jam table was designed with the idea of encouraging people to gather around and share ideas, stories and host informal meetings.
Jam features 80mm thick construction on all sides and is available in 2 heights, seated (720mm) or standing (1050mm) and comes in a wide range of sizes. It is constructed in separate pieces so access into difficult spaces or highrise offices isn’t a problem.
It is the perfect companion to our Pac stools, Tang, Inc or Zorro chairs and is available in melamine or veneer finishes. The Jam is the ideal piece for your breakout space.
Case Study: East Sydney Private Hospital
When the directors of the soon to be opened East Sydney Private Hospital were faced with the task of furnishing their brand new Woolloomooloo premises they approached us to provide a solution.
Their objective was to find furniture that is adaptable, durable and aesthetically pleasing whilst also readily available for an easy and speedy installation.
Our Spyder chairs are the main attraction, being used right throughout the wards, waiting areas and patient rooms. Duo chairs, Tex lounges and Ice coffee tables were used in reception areas to create a comfy waiting space. Miro chairs were used behind all specialist and administration desks whilst Industrial Operators chairs were placed in the surgery rooms.
The colour palette perfectly complimented the hospital’s branding with all the upholstery chosen throughout being done in grey and burgundy tones in a fabric suitable for a healthcare environment.
Happy Easter!
Can you believe it’s that time of year already? We’d like to wish you and your families a safe and happy Easter break. We hope you fill your bellies with loads of delicious chocolate and enjoy a well deserved long weekend. Cheers!
