The Transformation Story
A commercial fitout for a Sydney beauty clinic, requiring a reception area, client powder room, and functional treatment room. The brief called for a premium aesthetic that would immediately communicate quality to clients while using materials that could withstand the demands of a high-traffic commercial environment.
The Brief
This was a commercial fitout for a Sydney beauty clinic - a different beast to residential work. The client needed a space that would impress from the moment clients walked through the door, but also stand up to the realities of running a busy clinic. Commercial spaces get hammered. Surfaces are wiped down constantly. Clients touch everything. Staff are rushing between appointments. Every material choice had to balance premium aesthetics with genuine durability. There's no point having a beautiful space if it looks tired after six months of daily use.
Reception & First Impressions
The reception desk sets the tone for the entire clinic. We designed and installed a custom marble desk that makes a statement without being over the top. The marble was selected for its visual impact but also sealed properly for commercial use - it needs to handle constant contact and regular cleaning without staining or etching.
First impressions matter in the beauty industry. When clients walk in, they're subconsciously assessing whether this is a premium operation. The reception area answers that question immediately. Quality materials, clean lines, and attention to detail signal that the clinic takes their work seriously.

Client-Facing Spaces
The powder room is another touchpoint that reinforces the clinic's brand. We installed a marble vanity with matching splashback - consistent with the reception area to maintain the premium feel throughout. The fixtures were chosen for both appearance and longevity; commercial-grade tapware that looks elegant but handles hundreds of uses per week.
Every detail in the client-facing areas was considered. From the grout colour to the lighting, everything works together to create a cohesive, professional environment. These aren't just bathrooms - they're part of the overall client experience.

Treatment Areas & Hygiene Requirements
The treatment room sink was specified for commercial hygiene requirements. Unlike residential bathrooms, clinical spaces need surfaces that can be sanitised repeatedly without degrading. We installed appropriate basin and tapware designed for frequent, thorough cleaning. Commercial fitouts in the health and beauty sector come with specific requirements that residential renovations don't. Understanding these requirements - and building to exceed them - is what separates a renovation that works from one that creates ongoing problems for the business. This clinic is now running at full capacity with a fitout that performs as well as it looks. The marble makes the statement, and the commercial-grade construction means it'll keep making that statement for years to come.
Frequently Asked Questions about Sydney Renovations
Can natural marble withstand the constant cleaning required in a beauty clinic?
Yes, with proper sealing and maintenance. We specified a commercial-grade penetrating sealer applied before installation, which protects against staining from beauty products. The marble is wiped down with pH-neutral cleaners only - no acidic products. The clinic was given a maintenance schedule and recommended cleaning products to ensure longevity.
