Commercial Winner
Edmond Massimini of MoMa Group won the Commercial category for a stunning office remodel. The sculpted Staron reception counter draws the eye with its bold detail and commitment to organic shape. The reception counter naturally curves around a nestled office space, guiding guests down an unfiltered path. The curved theme appears again in the boardroom, with a large custom table allowing individuals and groups alike to gather. Mimicking the free form curves found in nature, the reception counter and boardroom table complement the stunning green wall and deliver a calming atmosphere to this office fitout.
Residential Winner
Congratulations to Lee Hardcastle from Enigma Interiors for success in the Residential category. This residential project embraced the quirky and eclectic personality of their client, with the new kitchen transforming to reflect the vibrant character of its owner. The oversized kitchen island provided the perfect opportunity for Staron products, with the goal to make the island stand out against the kitchen like a piece of artwork itself. A soft white finish settles the precise angles and alluring definition of the island, calming the space with a wash of luxurious elegance.
Concept Winner
The “not yet realised” project by Emily Collins from Billy Blue College of Design was a fantastic hit at the Staron Design Awards, taking home a win for the concept category. This innovative kitchen benchtop and dining table project for a double story residential design in Blues Point Tower marks an exciting new era for Solid Surface design.
