Trash the Studio is a multidisciplinary creative practice working across identity, environment and execution.
We shape cohesive design directions — aligning brand, space and production as one continuous idea.
Work may be led end-to-end or approached in parts. In every case, the focus is on creating physical and digital environments that are considered, honest and built to last — grounded in material integrity, non-toxic specification and long-term impact, with sustainability considered at every stage from concept through to delivery.
Our work sits at the point where ideas become real.
We operate as creative leads, setting direction early and carrying it through each stage of a project — from strategy and design to making and sourcing.
Every project is different, but our approach is consistent.
Context
We begin by understanding context — the people involved, the place, the brief and the constraints. From here, we establish a clear design direction that can hold across both physical and digital environments.
Culture
Ideas are developed through cultural research, spatial studies, material exploration and design testing. This may include interior architecture, furniture and object concepts, visual language, websites or content systems — always with a focus on clarity, use and longevity.
Completion
Where required, we remain closely involved through making and delivery, working with a trusted network of artisans, fabricators and specialist partners to ensure quality, responsibility and intent are carried through to completion.
-
Brand and creative direction for hospitality, residential and lifestyle projects.
We develop cohesive design concepts that establish the visual, spatial and material direction for a project — shaping how architecture, interiors, objects and communication work together as one continuous idea.
Often delivered as: positioning, narrative, visual references, material direction, concept boards and early design principles to guide future design and delivery.
-
Architecture and interiors shaped around atmosphere, material integrity and use.
We work across spatial concepts and interior architecture development through to technical drawing packages, material specification and installation — collaborating closely with architects, consultants and specialist fabricators.
Often delivered as: spatial concepts, layouts, 3D visualisation, construction drawings, material schedules, FF&E specification and key design details ready for implementation.
-
Websites, content and communication that carry the same direction as the physical work.
We shape digital presence as an extension of identity and environment — setting the creative direction for websites, content systems and key messages. Depending on scope, we either collaborate with your existing web and marketing teams or bring in trusted partners.
Often delivered as: site structure and page map, visual direction, content frameworks including social media plans and launch-ready assets.
-
Furniture, objects and product design — bespoke or editioned.
Where the project calls for it, we develop custom furniture, lighting and object systems that form part of the wider architectural language rather than feeling applied.
Often delivered as: furniture concepts, drawings and dimensioned specifications, bespoke FF&E, prototyping support, material selection and maker coordination.
-
Sourcing, making and delivery — keeping intent intact as work moves off the page.
We coordinate procurement and production across bespoke objects and spatial projects, working closely with makers, suppliers and contractors to manage quality, timelines and project delivery throughout all stages of implementation.
Often delivered as: procurement and production planning, supplier coordination, tender support, sampling, quality control, delivery coordination, installation oversight and final styling.
