Design Firm: Hot Black,
Building: RORK Projects

TCW was brought in by Hot Black to provide furniture for the lobby of an iconic National Australian media provider in Ultimo, Sydney. The area we needed to fit out had to fulfil casual meeting and café areas that would be accessed by their staff, visitors and related guests. We relied on two of our key suppliers Naughtone Furniture and Actiu to meet the needs of this multi-use space.

Working alongside Hot Black we supplied a range of our beautiful Naughtone furniture products into the scene. The collection included Bounce Chairs that were placed in the café and alongside low meeting tables, Always Chairs and Always Loungers in bold yellow and blue, set up as small meeting configurations. The Construct Stools, and Trace Bar Tables were idea for the canteen and café areas specified in bright tones which picked up on the playful interiors reflecting the design. This selection of Naughtone furniture plays to one of their key strengths – upholstery. This responds well to the increased demand for domestic feeling products with commercial applications, ideal in these breakout areas.

Additionally the Longo Settings from Actiu was used as an alternative low soft seating arrangement. Our aim is always to address the customers’ needs with our high-quality and diverse product ranges. This project was just as important to have functional furniture that fulfilled the purpose, as it was to be visually pleasing. As the first point of contact into the building, a positive impression is vital.
