Scope
Styling lobbies for Christmas
For this commercial project, we created a festive installation that brought the magic of Christmas to life for everyone who passed through CBRE's buildings.
Embarking on a festive journey, we transformed the lobbies of CBRE's commercial buildings into enchanting Christmas displays. Tasked with designing and installing seasonal decor across seven buildings in Sydney and Brisbane, the team infused each space with holiday cheer, presenting CBRE with two signature Alfresco Christmas looks: Elegant and Traditional. These themes were brought to life through a curated selection of Christmas decor, including bespoke wreaths, fully decorated pre-lit trees, and hand-wrapped gift boxes. Each piece was meticulously chosen and placed to create a captivating Christmas wonderland.
The entrance foyers, reception desks, and key communal areas were adorned with festive elements that exuded warmth and holiday spirit. The Elegant theme featured a sophisticated palette with gold accents, luxurious fabrics, and intricate details, while the Traditional theme embraced classic reds and greens, rich textures, and timeless ornaments. For the duration of the Christmas period, these beautifully styled spaces were admired and enjoyed by staff, visitors, and clients. Each day, as they commuted to and from work, they were greeted with the joyous ambiance of the holiday season, enhancing their overall experience.

Working with Alfresco Emporium was an absolute pleasure. As Associate Director for Placemaking & Experiences in Commercial Property we wanted to steer clear of providing “typical” Christmas lobby displays with impersonal décor that feel like they are churned out of a factory. Having always admired the Alfresco Emporium retail brand it was a delight being connected with their Head of Interior Styling who was able to conduct site visits to our client’s buildings. The highly skilled styling team proposed some truly spectacular lobby décor for Christmas and the quality of their products and attention to detail were second to none. The seamless on-site execution matched their proposals exactly and we received wonderful feedback from our clients, from the tenants in the buildings and from many people expressing their love of the décor and how warm, festive, and homely it felt. If you want to set your property apart from the rest, I will highly recommend Alfresco Emporium.
