arete were engaged to refurbish Level 2 of the Waterside West Building, located at Bundall on the Gold Coast.

Gold Coast City Council engaged arete to provide a complete fitout of their new call centre at Waterside West, a twin building development right on the banks of the Gold Coast canals.

The contract consisted of 1,400m² of office fitout including breakout and kitchen area, large enough for a pool table and community lunch area, two meeting and two training rooms along with an open plan office space, seating 120 and acoustic rated booths for the more intimate meetings.

The demolition portion of the fitout provided an additional challenge as it was located on the second floor with no access to the stairwell or goods lift. To overcome this arete erected a bespoke scaffold and removed perimeter windows as the main point of entry/exit for both contractors and materials via crane.

The finished product boasts high quality products, and finishes and a space the client will enjoy for years to come.

arete completed the new office fitout for the Department of Industry Innovation and Science at 100 Creek Street in the Brisbane Central Business district.

The design by Cameron & Co includes a delicate wrapping of blonde timbers and light stone as a skin that threads itself through key collective spaces in the office.

Internal timber fins frame views, culminate vistas and filter natural light through the plan. In contrast, office spaces are afforded a level of simplicity to compliment the richness of the arrival and communal areas.

arete were engaged by Aveo Group to fitout their new head office in the Gasworks precinct.

The fitout included installation of multiple solid and glazed partitions to create separate areas for office and meetings uses, services upgrades, tiled lift lobby walls and floors, kitchens and a reception with high quality joinery and the installation of 120 workstations working through from the back of the office through to the other end.

arete worked closely with Ultralinea Architects to value engineer this project to reduce the costs to adhere with the client’s tight budget whilst still maintaining the design intent. This project was on a tight 5 week programme as Aveo had a mandatory move-in date.

There were challenges with logistics as the building was under construction and the level we were working on had no lift access however, arete still managed to deliver this 3,000m² gorgeous office space on time and on budget!

The fitout encompassed a large meeting room and boardroom with one corner office. With a modern yet elegant waiting room on entry surrounded by glass and timber blade feature panels, this fitout was a joy to see come together. The kitchen and lunch room holds its own without flowing into the large group working space.

The project included refurbishment of open plan work space, meeting room, amenities, laboratory and outdoor recreational area.

Being a design and construct contact this gave arete the opportunity to explore more economical and aesthetic solutions for the outdoor area.

The 10 Browning Street End of Trip Facilities concept was to turn several unused car parking spaces into a high end End of Trip facility fit with showers, amenities, lockers and bike rack storage for the tenants who occupy 10 Browning Street. The project consisted of one male End of Trip space, one female End of Trip space and a bike storage area which has 36 lockers installed for optimal use.

arete were engaged by Group HIS to undertake a refurbishment of 7 stages at Port Macquarie Base Hospital whilst the rest of the hospital was fully operational 24/7. The project included architectural refurbishment of the I-MED Radiology department, including the outpatient waiting areas, admin areas, DR X-Ray, MRI suite, CT rooms, screening fluoroscopy and sterile stores.

A key challenge with this project was that the hydraulics to the building had to be refurbished to code. This involved some heavy involvement from our nominated hydraulics contractor and Group HIS nominated engineer to work together to come up with a feasible solution, whilst having as little impact as possible to the daily function of the hospital.

Informal meetings were held daily with the hospital staff and weekly reports were issued to the client on upcoming impacts to the hospital, including noisy works. Any services shutdowns were planned well in advance to ensure they occurred outside of operating hours. Given the sensitivities of the building’s use, the project team had to comply with strict infection control guidelines, including mitigating dust transfer from the work site to the operational areas with the use of the Zipwall system.

The Cunnamulla Hospital refurbishment included the demolition and refit of nurse’s station, hospital wards and police beat all within the hospital. This project due to remote location was difficult to procure but with good responses from regional/local tradesman arete produced a successful project with limited impact on the operational hospital.

This project was working in a live hospital and the rooms were located in different areas throughout the hospital, so arete worked to isolate these areas to ensure cross contamination did not occur. The client was happy with this as there was no impact on hospital operations due to clear communication between the project team and hospital operations manager.

The overall vibe for the medical centre was to achieve a ‘day spa’ feel, with dark timber floors, white walls and lots of featured greenery plants and accessories to match the River Tree Medical Centre branded logo which is of dark green and white colours.

The project team completed the fitout of 11 consultant rooms, waiting room, café, staff room, treatment room, pathology room and two individual offices, all designed to house medical professionals.

All rooms have been fit with large glazed aluminium doors to capture the natural light available from the front of the building, as well as vanities and patient beds.

Caboolture Pharmacy was originally an empty shell located within the GP Super Clinic at Caboolture that Kane Constructions constructed.

The fitout was on a tight programme of four weeks, to complete all services and architectural features to deliver a high calibre compounding pharmacy.

The project team delivered the pharmacy ahead of schedule, with the client beaming with excitement of being able to move in and trade early.

This was the first compounding pharmacy in the area, which allowed the pharmacy to make and house their own medications onsite.

The Griffith University Engineering Enabling project was made up of three different locations across the Griffith University Nathan Campus, with the main focus surrounding the N44 Engineering Building.

Level 0 of the N44 was turned from a dark, prehistoric computer lab, to a bright, modern engineering lab where students could undertake their studies. Alongside the modern fixtures, arete also provided some high end joinery ‘pods’ where the students can collaborate and work alongside the Engineering faculty.

arete worked closely with Griffith University and Hassell Architects to ensure that the works were future proof to allow the three individual student spaces to be able to withstand the constant traffic of University students and faculty members within the spaces. An example of this was changing the electrical layout for the work station pods to be run through an umbilical as opposed to ground mounted. This was a cost effective motion for arete as the builders and the client.

The project was completed on time and within budget.
