Special Nonexistent Furniture

Trade+Commercial project: SCG Member's Box, NSW

​We don't like to do things by halves, so for one of our very first projects, we took on a refurbishment of the corporate entertaining suites at the SCG and Allianz Stadium for the Sydney Cricket & Sports Ground Trust (SCSGT).

Johnny Naofal, SCSGT General Manager Facilities, outlined in the brief that: "We wanted a fresh look for our corporate entertaining areas, a design that lightened up the space and brought in new elements." Keeping line of sight for sporting events and concerts was crucial to the design, of course, as was incorporating the history of the SCG spaces.

The team took inspiration from global bar and restaurant design trends and created several looks before arriving at the final concept. We drew on key elements that make great hospitality environments, focusing on statement lighting, feature tiling and furniture with strong lines. Each design is cohesive and polished, without overpowering or distracting from the main attraction happening out on the field.

Pendant lights and feature tiling.

The clientele of these corporate boxes includes many international guests, so we incorporated Australian coastal style without the clichés. This includes pendant lights that reference the shape of a stylised lobster trap, tiles with an oyster shell finish and clean colour palettes that evoke the feeling of fresh coastal air. The design was planned with longevity in mind, from the durability of finishes to specification of pieces from T&W's large range of furniture suited to high-traffic spaces.​

Coastal inspired and practical function furniture.

"Everything about the redesign - from the lighting to the bench space and even the location of the fridges - is really functional as well as attractive. We've found our clients spending more time in the corporate suites and watching from there, rather than heading out to the seats; the atmosphere's so much more inviting."
- Johnny Naofal, General Manager Facilities, Sydney Cricket & Sports Ground Trust (SCSGT)
