Juilliard Lift No.3

Posted on by

Lift No.3 was developed for the St James Building re-development on the corner of Bourke and Williams St in Melbournes CBD.

Charlwood Design developed a concept based off a twisted, altered reality public transport fitout. The cage like stainless steel bar network is as intricated as it is detailed, with in-rail custom lighting specially designed and developed by Charlwood Design.

A window looks out into the Elevator shaft, where a lift riders can watch a large mural by artist Reka zip past. The stark white paneling hugs the walls, with beautifully curved corners and stainless steel trimming finishing the edges.

A completely custom COP panel was design and machined out of a solid block of aluminum, with custom buttons using the buildings font were machined out polycarbonate and polished.

Charlwood Design worked closely with the Kone Lifts to assure that all design aspects could safely be included whilst still meeting local standards and codes.

MCHUMBA Children’s Table

Posted on by

Charlwood Design was approached to develop this activity based children’s table for startup MCHUMBA.  Digitally printed artwork on the table surface is covered in clear whiteboard paint encouraging children to draw and explore directly on the table surface. Charlwood conducted extensive ergonomic research to ensure maximum comfort and the result is an appealing, easy to clean activity surface. We also created a matching stool with a built in storage compartment and created a prototype for testing.
