CASA FORTE GROUP

2021 - 2025

Chadstone Shopping Centre
The Social Quarter

I was heavily involved in the design processes for four entertainment venues—Strike Bowling, Holey Moley Mini Golf, Archie Brothers, and Hijinx Hotel—at Chadstone Shopping Centre's Social Quarter. Owned by the client Funlab, these projects required adherence to their established branding language. My responsibilities included concept designs, construction documentation, 3D modelling, and rendering, ensuring each project was executed with precision and creativity.

Century city walk

I was actively involved in the design work for the Century City Walk (CCW) project, focusing on the refurbishment of Strike Bowling and the design of the new
Archie Brothers venue situated opposite Strike. My responsibilities included conducting site visits, creating concept designs, preparing detailed construction drawings and documentation, and developing 3D models and renders to effectively present the designs to clients and the CCW Retail Design Managers.

Rathdowne Street

We collaborated with a local architecture firm on the Rathdowne Street project to create representation renders for a residential space they were designing. I worked closely with the interior designers and their team, contributing to the 3D modelling and rendering of their designs to assist in presenting the final product to their clients.

Polynova

Beyond interior design, Casa Forte Group has expanded into designing outdoor furniture and planters under the studio name Polynova (formerly Polyforma). I have been involved in various aspects of the creations which were showcased at the Melbourne International Garden Show in 2024 and featured in the 100th issue of the outdoor design and living magazine Green in November 2024. Additionally, I managed the VR aspect of showcasing our designs, allowing visitors to put on a headset to see the products in real-time at a 1:1 scale. I was also involved in rendering out all the products for the website.

Luxe Pavilions

In addition to interiors, Casa Forte has also ventured into designing small outdoor rooms under the studio name Luxe Pavilions. I have played a crucial role in conceptualising this innovative idea of creating small, detached outdoor spaces that can serve as living accommodations, office spaces, or retreats. I contributed to the design of these outdoor rooms, as well as 3D modelling and rendering out each of the design concepts. The key feature of these spaces is their modular and customisable design, allowing them to be tailored to specific needs. The purpose of this initiative not only represents a design innovation but can also address the current housing crisis.
