The Transformation Story
A complete internal renovation of a compact Surry Hills apartment, focusing on modern design and making the most of the available space.
The Brief
This Surry Hills apartment needed a complete internal renovation. The owners wanted to modernize the space while making it more functional. Working in an apartment building means dealing with strata rules and being mindful of neighbors, but we've done plenty of these types of jobs.

Kitchen Renovation
The kitchen was completely redone with a new layout that opens up to the living area. We installed marble benchtops, quality appliances, and plenty of storage. The island bench works as both a workspace and dining area - a practical solution that our clients love.

Bathroom Renovation
The bathroom got a complete makeover. We managed to fit a freestanding bath even in the limited space, along with a wall-hung vanity to keep the floor clear. Quality tiles, good lighting, and modern fixtures made a huge difference to how the space feels.

Living Space Updates
The living areas were refreshed with new flooring and a modern color scheme. The open-plan layout connects the kitchen to the living space, making the apartment feel much larger. Quality finishes and good lighting throughout complete the transformation.

Project Complete
After 12 weeks, the apartment was transformed. Modern finishes, better layout, and loads more storage. It's a great example of what can be achieved with good planning and quality workmanship. The space now works much better for everyday living.
“The team did an amazing job with our small apartment. They figured out storage solutions we never would have thought of, and the quality of work is spot on. Everything was done on time despite the access challenges.”
