Studio Tonic Assists in Exciting Changes to UCI

Studio Tonic has been having fun with the staff of UCI Furniture in Adelaide to upgrade their showroom and re-assess their retail display protocols. With our varied retail experience in visual merchandising, stock management and retail buying of furniture and homewares we were able to re-plan the showroom to enable more stock display, incorporate efficient back of house areas, support client meeting and provide for a future breakout/cafe area capable of entertaining clients day to day and supporting numerous in house corporate fiunctions. Studio Tonic also provided the palette direction for upholstery finishes for existing and new floor stock from soft furniture through to task chairs and workstations including 'Paradigm' the latest UCI offering in fully adjustable workstations. Please see the images below, on our website, and look out for further exciting changes at UCI!

Studio Tonic Plans for Retirement

Southern Cross Care called for a quick turnaround residential interior scheme for their first display villa at Riverpoint Retirement Estate, Noarlunga Downs. Studio Tonic worked with the existing base finishes and plan to provide a comfortable, modern environment for living and entertaining. The brief encompassed furniture and decoration for living, dining and kitchen, 3 bedrooms (of which one became a sales office) and also furniture provision for the outdoor entertaining area.

Response to the display has been very positive, please see more details of the Riverpoint Retirement Estate at .http://www.riverpointretirement.com.au/home-style/display-villa

Studio Tonic heads for wine country

   

Stylish changes are afoot at the popular Novotel Barossa Valley Resort where Studio Tonic have just completed a refurbishment of the hotel lobby.  Studio Tonic co‑owners and Interior Designers, Neroli Hutchinson and Sarah Gamtcheff, introduced a sophisticated chalet influence to the hub of this busy hotel. “We felt that the existing architecture, including cathedral ceiling, feature fire place and rolling views of the Barossa Valley lent itself to a comfortable, home away from home retreat similar, to that of an international holiday lodge,” explained Sarah.

James Murphy, General Manager at Novotel Barossa Valley Resort had a clear vision for the upgrade of the lobby.  The main brief was to provide a clear sense of having “arrived” at your special holiday destination with a fresh and welcoming ambience and an immediate feeling of winding down. 

   

Wallpaper was customised for the project by Vicki Mentjies of Dearwood hand printed wallpapers.  See their range at http://www.dearwood.com.au/. Furniture  was sourced through Aura, Schiavello, Tait, James Richardson and Adelaide Agencies.  Joinery by Gawler Custom Joinery, and Pendants from Instyle Lighting and Paradigm Living.  Photography by Robert James Walters.
