Hakea Wellness is a purpose-built social wellness space designed to create a complete wellness experience. The space brings together movement, recovery and connection to make wellness an enjoyable and sustainable experience.
Cullinan Ivanov Partnership brought the following key skills to ensure trouble-free, cost effective delivery of this project:
- Director level involvement at all stages of the project journey
- Full project coordination and management from inception to completion
- Creative design thinking from our talented and experienced team of interior designers
- Full detailed construction documentation to minimise variation risk
- Full contract administration
- Liaison with and managing stakeholders, consultants and authorities
Hakea offers curated wellness experiences in two distinctly designed spaces: Restore – designed as a place to rejuvenate and recharge, combining traditional and infrared saunas, cold plunge therapy and massage chairs for restorative wellness experiences; and Reform – designed as a space for expert-led Reformer Pilates classes to build strength, presence and balance.
Hakea is designed as a calm, considered space. The name Hakea – inspired by a beautiful Australian native plant – symbolises strength, adaptability and connection to nature. Our palette and design are inspired by the Australian landscape with muted neutral earthy toned walls, bronze olive metalwork and warm timber veneers. The spaces are softened with light, bright sheer curtains, rounded mirrors and circular feature pendants. A large circular porthole window with ribbed glass and steel frame arched entry door creates a distinct entrance and the desired ambiance for arrival and waiting.
“Working with Cullinan Ivanov Partnership on the Hakea Wellness project was an exceptional experience from start to finish. I appreciated their director-level involvement at every stage of the journey, which ensured clear vision, strong leadership, and a consistent commitment to quality. Cullinan Ivanov Partnership brought expertise, creativity and reliability to the construction and vision for Hakea Wellness, and I couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome. I look forward to working with them again on future projects.”
