The Butterfly House

By The Studio | Published: December 14, 2011

One of our favourite projects this year has been the creation of ‘The Butterfly House’ at the birdcage for MYER. There are so many reasons why we have loved this project

1. We were given the opportunity to work with the wonderful team at Breezeway to create an absolutely stunning facade with architectural glass louvers-Flemington dishes out all kinds of weather yet these beautiful louvers protected us when it rains and let the spring breeze through the marquee

2. The perfect party space was created by the two levels and luxe sunken lounge

3. Melboure’s finest food offerings from Jason Jones(mumasita)

4. Incredible white floral installations from Jeff Latham (more on the wonderful Jeff to follow), assisted by Flowers Vasette

The whimsical countdown has begun at MGPO

By The Studio | Published: November 24, 2011

We’re in love with Melbourne’s GPO beautiful clock tower and are inspired by the iconic bells held within.

This Christmas we have created a whimsical hanging wonderland, playful girls luxuriously illustrated by Laura Laine are getting ready for Christmas, hanging over scaled bells throughout the halls trying to tie down and capture the time that has escaped from giant clocks.

The installation is in for all of December and early January be sure to head into the MGPO and experience the wonderland…

The first of the fresh crop FRUCHE

By The Studio | Published: November 22, 2011

Within the confines of the birdcage we have worked with some of our favourite clients MYER, TABCORP & FRUCHE

Here’s the first in our series of projects for Spring Carnival.

We took inspiration for Fruche from its fun, fresh & fashionable view of the world. A raw wood pavilion soaked in gradients of coral, simple slat ceiling from which hundreds of “yoghurty” dipped flowers made from half a kilometre of flywire, cascaded from the ceiling, down the walls and onto the open sunny balcony.

Together with Style Counsel the Fruche marquee was a big crowd pleaser featuring the incredible Dj Kate Jean, Flamboyant Fruche ambassador J Alexander and gorgeous guests created a buzz all week

PS. check out this video footage… FRUCHE in the moment !

Which side of the bed did you get out of this morning?

By The Studio | Published: September 29, 2011

Our current installations are based around the Sportsgirl’s national campaign ‘My Moving Image’. Sportsgirl worked with many creative wonders to make two short films based on the different sides of a characters personality and style; one girl, two realities.

In joining with this we explored film, mostly looking at movement and reflection all based in and around this giant wooden cubby house on stilts, which housed the two-featured films. The cubby house has the films playing which can be viewed through the periscopes as well as through the windows, all giving you a different perspective into the left and right side of the girls two realities. To watch the gorgeous Sportsgirl featured films & find out more about the making of the films click here.

Our installation at Sportsgirl Bourke St ‘My Moving Image’ was lucky enough to be apart of the wonderful State of Design Festival Look.Stop.Shop.

We wrapped the floor, walls and windows with the film stills- showing the left and right hand side of the girl’s journey. In the centre we created an orbit of convex mirrors, which further reflected the moving films as well as the movement and reflections of the Sportsgirl passers by, creating a feeling of being immersed in the installation and her world.

reflected summer

By The Studio | Published: September 5, 2011

Australia’s vast and wide-open spaces are connected by exquisite and intriguing landforms. In a series of abstracted sculptures made of clay and imbedded with mirrors our landforms elegantly and slowly rotated to form the set for Myer SS2011/12 collections launch…

As the show unfolded fresh spring colour’s popped from the neutral clay set. The pinnacles created a transforming mirage reflecting the movement of the models as they moved throughout the space.

Together with our creative partners Rizer, Staging Rentals, Ziggy Zigler, Michael Boyd, Michelle Jank, we think we have created a fashion show that could be summed up as chic. – Gloss Creative
