Krost x SID 2022

June 5, 2022

We loved opening our Sydney showroom on the 21st of May for Saturday Indesign 2022. It was an exciting day filled with showroom tours, new product launches, food and drinks, and design discussions.

Design professionals and enthusiasts treated themselves to waffles from our live waffle making station, whilst immersing themselves in our all-day pop garden lounge with a cocktail. The day ended with a talk panel hosted by leading industry designers, who discussed challenging questions associated with running a successful design practice.

In our showroom, visitors got to experience our full product range including our 2022 collection featuring Remi tables and credenza, Franki and Hugs lounges, Chitchat coffee tables and more.

Thank you to all involved in setting up our space for Saturday Indesign and to the visitors who attended our showroom over the course of the day.

Stay tuned for more upcoming industry events.

Design and Function Combine for Talent X’s New Office

April 20, 2022

Located in a heritage style building, Talent X’s new office space features a mix of original and contemporary style finishes creating the perfect juxtaposition of architecture and furniture. As a hybrid recruitment and consultancy agency with an aim to build overachieving teams, Talent X’s fit out has created an environment to foster success and support for their team and candidates. 

Natural light floods the open plan office, highlighting the signature painted brick walls and furniture pieces throughout. Using a mixture of Polytec Notaio Walnut, Shannon Oak and Laminex Milano Walnut finishes throughout the office, combined with the green walls, a biophilic design that reminds us of the warmth of nature is created. The interior features floor to ceiling glass walls allowing each area to flow into each other without clear or defined limits, creating fluidity within the office.

As you enter the space, our Tex lounges provide soft seating for visitors, encouraging a relaxed and informal atmosphere. Our Lennox storage units in a dual tone finish are placed facing opposite directions to divide the areas in a purposeful yet stylish way. 

Collaboration and teamwork is inspired through the multiple Flip tables that fill the open area. Offering complete mobility and functionality with their castors, our Flip tables allow the Talent X team to move and create their own work areas based on different needs and requirements. Our Keywork desk with a modesty panel is also featured in this space, allowing for more focused and task driven activities. 

Talent X have used our Swish height adjustable desks to promote employee health and wellbeing and to suit the varied working styles. In the main office, our Swish spine has been used offering practical storage which hides the foot of the Spine desk for a seamless finish. Paired with our Miro and Space task chairs, each office has been set up to promote comfort and productivity. 

Cohesive in theme, our Lennox units in matching finishes are featured through the entire office, from the open area to executive offices allowing ample storage. Minimalist in design with clean lines and matt black anodised handles, Lennox effortlessly integrates into all spaces within the Talent X office. 

Finally, the boardroom features our Benchwork table in Shannon Oak and black powder coated steel frame, offering a practical solution for formal and team meetings.

Talent X’s new office space considers the different working environments for the modern employee. Various settings are provided that focus on connection, collaboration and comfort by the curation of furniture and finishes.

R U OK DAY-Main.jpg

R U OK?

September 8, 2021

Are they really OK? Ask them today.

Today and every day, at Krost, we are supporting R U OK? Day.

Now, even more than ever, people we know might be having a hard time. Do we know how the people in our world are really going? Sometimes it’s hard to tell. Keep reading to find out more about how you can start a conversation and help others.

Today is R U OK?Day – and a reminder we need to stay connected and make asking “are you OK?” part of our everyday. That way if someone we know is struggling with something big or small they’ll know we care.

When we genuinely ask, “are you OK?” and are prepared to listen to them about how they’re feeling and what’s going on in their life, we can help someone who might be struggling feel connected and supported, long before they’re in crisis.

Don’t wait until someone’s visibly distressed; make a moment meaningful today and ask “are you OK?”.

Meaningful moments to talk about life’s ups and downs are more likely to happen when we’re spending quality time together. Some good opportunities for talking include:

  • On breaks from work or study

  • When exercising together

  • When connecting or doing activities together online

  • When you’re spending time together socially

  • When you’re doing an activity side-by-side

  • When you’re sharing a meal

  • When you’re travelling together, even a short trip can be a good time to talk

To show our support and raise awareness, today, we’ll be sharing information and resources with our team and on our social media platforms that will help everyone make a moment meaningful by asking the people in your world how they’re really going.

We’ve also asked the wonderful people at Krost to show their support by wearing their best yellow or R U OK? outfits. Don’t forget to follow us and check our Instagram page @krostfurniture today to see it all.

You can also watch the below video for tips on how to ask your co-workers if they are ok.

ALEC’s guide to asking R U OK? at Work from R U OK? on Vimeo.

Are they really OK? Ask them today. A conversation could change a life. If you need immediate crisis or emotional support you can contact Lifeline on 13 11 14

R U OK? is a national charity dedicated to inspiring all of us to have regular, meaningful conversations to support anyone struggling with life’s ups and downs. You can find conversation tips at ruok.org.au


Here’s a bunch of images for you to share on your social media pages if you’d like to help raise awareness (right click on the image and save as).

The Krost Team is Walking to Support Camp Quality this Month

September 1, 2021

We’re excited to share that we have joined the Big Walk for Little Kids walking challenge!

Starting yesterday, our team has committed to walk every day until the end of the month and raise funds to support kids impacted by cancer.

We would love your help. If you can, please support us to give Aussie kids impacted by cancer every opportunity to thrive. Every donation makes a difference and is greatly appreciated!

Every day, 2 Australian families are given the heart-breaking news that their child has cancer. The funds raised will help Camp Quality provide face-to-face support in hospitals, support families online, educate school kids about cancer to reduce bullying and send kids and their families to Kids’ and Family camp to give kids a chance to be kids again.

Donate Now

If you’d like to find out more about the cause, please visit the Camp Quality website .

Thank you for your support!

Simple Yet Elegant - FKW Chartered Accountants

August 4, 2021

Through classic finishes and a neutral colour palette, Melanie Redman Design have successfully transformed the office space of Flegg Kehlet Wagner Chartered Accountants into a contemporary and functional environment.

Cleverly segmented by our 4 way Benchwork workstations, the open office offers employees privacy through Local acoustic screens and individual storage with Globe mobile pedestals. 

Elegance and simplicity characterise the various meeting rooms defined by dark wooden tones and varying upholstery selection. The ‘Think Tank’, beautifully furnished with a Dart round table and Zorro chairs allows the team to gather for small informal meetings while the boardroom has been fitted with a large Dart rectangular table and black Marc chairs elevating the space with a luxe feel. 

Several breakout spaces were created for the team through low and high occasional seating options with our Cali chairs within the open office space and Indi stools overlooking the surrounding suburbs.

Oozing professional appeal, the executive office features our Merge corner workstation and return end pedestal perfectly complemented with a Marc high back chair. 

FKW Chartered Accountants’ new office expresses cohesiveness and has been carefully designed to create a productive workspace that incorporates modern aesthetics, comfort and practicality.
