Concept and Features:
The design concept for this complex commercial site is deeply rooted in the South Australian Tourism Commission's global vision of expanding market research and showcasing the selected biodynamic wines from Paxton, Coriole, and J&J within the picturesque McLaren Vale region.
​
Crafted a warm and inviting space that authentically embodies the client's values and brand identity. Sustainability takes centre stage, expressed through the prominent use of wood and natural elements that pay homage to the environment.
​
The entrance, graced with spacious doors and expansive windows, bathes the interior in abundant natural light, creating an inviting atmosphere.
​
The restaurant's wood-lined barrel booths infuse the space with a distinctive, organic ambience.
The seamless integration of terrazzo flooring and natural stone cladding bridges indoor and outdoor areas, offering an ideal setting for outdoor seating enveloped in lush greenery and the soothing sounds of nature.
​
The retail space is designed with modern glass shelving for an elegant product display, while the spacious wine-tasting area affords serene garden views, ensuring that my design resonates with a diverse customer base and delivers an unforgettable experience at the heart of the wine country.
