simplicity love: Slattery Australia offices, Australia

Located in an office tower building in Melbourne, Australia, the offices of Slattery Australia designed by Elenberg Fraser is a study in sophisticated and restrained materials palette, together with attention to details.

Description from Elenberg Fraser:

Have you ever wondered what the Elenberg Fraser ‘Bizarro World’ would look like? Well, we have, and we thought we’d execute it.

While Elenberg Fraser’s studio design focused tightly on the themes in Tron, particularly the point at which the third dimension is constructed, Slattery Australia’s new fitout embraces the innovation and luxury of the uniforms and vehicles of Tron Legacy. We can confirm the rumour that Elenberg Fraser had designed and specified latex reception wear (non-gender specific, obviously), we love the activation between people and space – as always one thing needs the other.

In the same building as our studio, Slattery Australia’s office feels a world away. Way up above us on level 14, it is certainly heavenly up there – blonde timber floors flow up onto the walls, embedded graphics are linear curves and a collection of young artists curated by Anna Schwartz Gallery is installed throughout the space including works from Shaun Gladwell, Joseph Kosuth, Emily Floyd and Daniel Crooks. Meeting room doors bring a touch of New York loft style with their black, steel frames and the working environment is a high-key, white, light space.

The design reflects our reading of a company, that’s come of age. One that we have been actively involved with for 14 years, since our first project. As Elenberg Fraser have moved into late adolescence, Slattery Australia have become real adults.
