Common Galaxia

Seddon

Common Galaxia was the first of three projects built by Fido Projects in close collaboration with owners Luke Mutton & Kylie Mackinlay. A café & restaurant fitout in a Small Giants’ development in the hip inner western suburb of Seddon built over 6 weeks, there was a strong focus on coffee & food & the beauty of raw concrete & brickwork, US Oak joinery & wall cladding, acoustic ply ceilings, with CPR Plumbing Solutions providing bespoke copper pipework. Lighting & furniture was delivered by Luke & Kylie’s other close collaborator, Justin Lamont of LifeSpaceJourney. Luke & Kylie have since moved onto bigger & better ventures at Sun Moth Canteen & Bar in Niagara Lane in the city.

Kerferd Road

Albert Park

Fido Projects’ first Kerferd Road project was the brainchild of its renowned architect owner, in conjunction with Foomann Architects. It involved attention to detail to every material, junction & process. The house is externally clad in Western Red Cedar & internally fit out with American White Oak to the joinery & floors. Over 50 specialist trades were used throughout the build.

Göteborg House

Albert Park

The Göteborg House was a collaboration with Clare Cousins Architect. The existing single fronted Victorian terrace was completely stripped out & refitted with a Scandinavian interior. A coordinated blonde palette was complemented with black & bronzed fittings.

Emporium, CBD

Our relationship with Studio Wonder and Australian designer Alice McCall led to our third consecutive project together—this time for a store inside Melbourne retail destination, Emporium. Responding to the evolution of the Alice McCall brand over the years, the space is graphic and minimal in nature, with our works involving custom brass racking, marble floors and marble point of sale, mirrored walls, and a frameless glass and ornate brass shop front.
