Sarah & Sebastian is an Australian fine jewellery studio where artistry and craftsmanship meet innovation to create unique and beautiful pieces. Our design for their flagship store in Armadale Melbourne draws on this through the use of colour, texture and materiality which were inspired by kelp forests and the shimmer of the ocean. Infusing this with sculptural form and a residential sensibility, we hoped to create a space which stirs a sense of exploration and nurtures an experience which is unique to the Sarah & Sebastian brand.
“We wanted to create a space with an elevated yet welcoming feel, inviting clients to linger and indulge in the brand’s considered service offering. We’re proud to have created a homely space in collaboration with Richard Stanisich, where you can really immerse in the details of our jewellery and all of our services under one roof”. — SARAH & SEBASTIAN co-founder and creative director, Sarah Munro.
“Paying homage to its former tenant, a 19th-century jeweller, the space blends heritage features with contemporary refinement, creating a retail oasis that’s designed to be explored.” — SARAH & SEBASTIAN co-founder and production director, Robert Sebastian Grynkofki.
