From the initial briefing, Leithal Designs approached the project with one core objective: to build a space that not only looks beautiful but transforms how people feel and work within it. The design process began with deep discovery, asking the right questions, understanding nuanced user needs, and defining the spatial rhythms that would enable flow and flexibility throughout the tenancy.
The result is an intelligent blend of private offices, open lounges, modular event areas, focused meeting spaces, and collaborative zones, all unified under a design language that speaks softly, yet confidently. A warm, neutral palette of soft greys, earthy undertones, and rich timber detailing creates an environment that feels grounded and polished.
Natural light is maximised through full-height glazing and reflective materials, while acoustic treatments ensure serenity even in shared zones. Feature lighting and subtle design moments, such as arched ceiling lines, banquette curves, and recessed niches, create a visual journey from entry to end-of-day.
The communal kitchen and breakout zones serve as the heart of the space, welcoming, versatile, and designed for social connection and renewal. Concealed appliances, layered
lighting, and generous bench space allow the area to transition from casual chats to catered events with ease.
Throughout the journey, Leithal Designs collaborated closely with Riva’s leadership and builder Ben Wells of Tailored-Creations to ensure every detail aligned with the project vision: to create a place where professionals thrive, not just work.
