Eastern Suburbs, a celebration of life is further conveyed through colour, comfort, furnishings and art, artfully assembled by the Levine Vokaberg team of Jessica Heneka, Ruth Levine, Debbie Freedberg and Lisa Falvo. How did you become involved with this project? LV: The clients knew of our work and had kept us in mind for their future project. As they were reaching the lock-up stage of their new build subpenthouse, they reached out to see if we would work with them to finalise the interiors.
What were the challenges of the space and how did you resolve them? The clients and the design were a real pleasure. The biggest challenge? Covid! Illness, isolation, site shutdowns, lead times, building delays, managing the erratic supply chain and a massive amount of coordination and patience. It was a time for stepping up and demonstrating our adaptability and prowess at adjusting to the ‘new normal’ and evolving situations which ensured a calm and smooth installation process.
