The Euteko Hotel Project was a creative challenge to design a unique hotel experience in Surry Hills, starting from scratch. The task required developing everything from the target market to the concept, branding, and interior design, all inspired by the rich cultural landscape of the area.
CONCEPT OVERVIEW:
“Euteko” is a hotel where the fusion of knowledge and creativity occurs seamlessly, much like the precise melting point in a eutectic mixture. This concept draws from the idea that, just as elements merge to create something new and stable, the experiences and knowledge gained here become an enduring part of the guest’s journey, leaving an indelible mark that stays with them long after they leave.

The project involved redesigning a mid-century modern home for Simone Young, Chief Conductor of the Sydney Symphony Orchestra.

The redesign included a complete internal rebuild, a curated collection of mid century art and designer furniture, and a Phase 2 addition of a self-contained unit on the lower level.
CONCEPT OVERVIEW:
