Situated within a dynamic hospitality destination, Loa required interiors that seamlessly balance global design with local craftsmanship. SAW collaborated closely with the international design team, Jestico + Whiles, to deliver a fully bespoke joinery package tailored to the project’s distinctive vision.
The scope included customised internal doors and a complete fit-out of the U-shaped main bar, terrace bar, and outdoor waiter station, ensuring functional efficiency and striking visual impact. Additional contributions encompassed banquet seating benches, dining tables, coffee tables, host stands, cabinets, and bathroom vanity units, all produced to exacting standards.
Among the standout features was a large pivot door with custom-designed handles and polycarbonate panelling, providing an innovative alternative to traditional glass. The project also incorporated custom soffit ceilings crafted from finely grooved acoustic panels to enhance sound absorption, alongside 3D-effect solid timber wall panelling, feature walls, partitions, and full-height fitted joinery. Each element was carefully designed to elevate the atmosphere while subtly dividing the space.
The result is a cohesive, bespoke environment where every joinery element from the curved bar with a marble top to intricate wall panelling demonstrates precision craftsmanship and thoughtful design integration.
