The project

About this project

Lift lobbies and end-of-trip amenities delivered across sixteen levels of one of Sydney's landmark commercial towers — specified, sourced, and installed to a single premium standard, on time and on budget.

Grosvenor Place is part of the Sydney skyline, and its tenants carry a quiet expectation of quality every time they step out of a lift. Refurbishing a building like this is as much a logistical exercise as a design one: the result has to read to a single standard from the lowest level to the highest, hold up under constant traffic, and come together with minimal disruption to a fully occupied tower.

Design Tiles was engaged to deliver the lift lobbies and amenities across sixteen levels — handling the specification and quoting, sourcing the materials, guiding the layout, and completing the installation in-house. One team, accountable from drawings to handover.

The lift lobbies set the tone for every floor. A bright, polished stone floor gives the space a sense of light and permanence, while deep, richly veined wall surfaces wrap the lift core in a dramatic, architectural tone. The contrast — luminous floor, dark walls, bronze lift doors catching the light between them — reads as quietly premium, and it repeats to the same standard on every level.

The lift lobby — a luminous floor against dark, dramatic walls and bronze lift doors, delivered to a single standard across every level.

In the end-of-trip amenities, the palette turns crisp and considered. Light, calm floors keep the spaces feeling clean and easy to maintain, while dramatic feature walls and vanities carry the material language through from the lobbies. Brass tapware, vessel basins, back-lit mirrors and concealed lighting add the finishing layer — the kind of detailing tenants notice without being able to name.
