Design Office took the spotlight at the 2025 Australian Interior Design Awards for their work on Vic’s Meat at Chatswood Chase, New South Wales.
Aside from receiving the Retail Design Award, Design Office’s reimagining of the Vic’s Meat store was also named Best of State Commercial in New South Wales, with the jury commending the project for its “bold and highly distinctive design that redefines the everyday butcher shop.”
The updated interior was praised for elevating the brand experience while remaining engaging and accessible to shoppers.
Other categories celebrated achievements in hospitality, public, and workplace interiors.
The jury said that this year’s awards “are an opportunity for our industry to stand back, take it all in and genuinely celebrate the quality of interior design being produced in Australia today. We can give ourselves a collective pat on the back as we continue to produce work that is inventive and sophisticated.”
Organised by the Design Institute of Australia in partnership with Architecture Media’s InteriorsAu, the Australian Interior Design Awards is now on its 22nd year and serves as a benchmark of design excellence in Australia.
