Taking inspiration from boutique hotels,
this is co-working at its finest.
A collaboration between the Deague Group and The Commons; Central House is designed to be a sophisticated and exclusive co-working office space that offers unique amenities to members, with an executive feel.
Central House Toorak is the second location designed by Siren Design for this thriving co-working company, and we are proud to say it took out Gold in the 2024 Melbourne Better Future Awards for Interior Design – Co-working and Studio Space.
Aimed at professionals from various industries, Central House has high-end amenities that cater to both business days and after-hour events. There are opportunities for independent quiet work, small business meetings, large conferences, and forums or company parties. Versatility is the key.
Central House is so much more than an office space, it is a space that fosters and promotes community, bringing people together through strategic space planning and a range of offerings throughout the space.
Our brief was to create a high-end, executive co-working space that offers members a range of amenities. Spanning over two levels, Central House Toorak features high-quality finishes and detailing, with considered design solutions that meet the member’s practical needs.
The design supports independent and team workspaces but also allows individuals to break away into quiet rooms, booths, break-out areas, lounges, or even have a hit of golf in the golf simulator room. The high-end design also oozes a warm, welcoming, and highly social atmosphere.
The spaces are available to members and their external visitors. They can use the communal spaces, breakout, and various styles of meeting and training rooms. The office zones feature various-sized offices, open-plan dedicated desks, break-out, and meeting spaces on offer. Along with a wellness space, library, quiet rooms, and meeting booths.
Central House in Toorak is a true definition of its surroundings – a high level of sophistication, a sense of exclusivity, and a heightened degree of richness and diversity.
The focus is on refined details and distinct textures to provide an overall inspiring, elegant experience that forms a backdrop for innovation, collaboration, and well-being.
The devil is in the detail.
The project’s design was based on generating new and unique concepts that would be offered by Central House exclusively – distinguishing it from other shared office spaces, whilst creating connections to our previous design for Central House South Melbourne.
The materiality promotes the luxury aesthetic. Offerings such as the NeuroPODs, wellness space, quiet library space, and Golf Simulator spaces are elements that visitors and members associate with Central House and the brand.
The space planning of Central House Toorak is highly considered the necessity for private and focused spaces, balanced with purposefully planned journeys that promote interaction and socializing across all members of the Central House, enhancing cross connections and collaborations between the users of the space.
Creating interconnection and flow between the levels was achieved through a new and elegant spiral staircase and vast void opening.
Sustainable products and finishes have been specified throughout the project.
