FITZGERALD CLINIC
Fitzgerald Private Clinic is located in the heart of Dublin city, a project by Kingston Lafferty Design. Self care is something that is a key focus within our society. Looking for moments of calm and serenity amidst our hectic lifestyles. Taking time to take care of oneself is more important and more accepted than ever before.
FITZGERALD PRIVATE CLINIC, KINGSTON LAFFERTY DESIGN
The design creates an environment that captures this essence of calm and quiet. The palette takes reference from the elements in nature, water, air and precious materials with subtle references to the delicacy of beauty and skin in an authentic way, drawing on tactility layering fabrics, glass and stone. The designer sought to create an inviting atmosphere and environment that draws the visitor in and encourages them to spend time.

PODDLE BAR
Blending European design with a touch of kitsch Aussie-Italian suburban, Poodle Bar & Bistro places the patron atthe centre of their experience. Occupying a double-fronted terrace on Fitzroy’s iconic Gertrude Street, the venue presents a series of quirky and materially-rich spaces to hide out or hang out depending on one’s mood.

A 1930s-inspired bar greets visitors on arrival, while vistas to a sumptuous dining lounge are framed through arched portals of stained timber; a contemporary chiaroscuro effect that gives luminosity to each interior space. Luxurious velvet and leather upholstery is offset by cheerful chequered flooring, slatted timber ceilings and a gallery wall of contemporary art illustrations; a spirited nod to the youthful Fitzroy locale. Beyond, a kitsch terracotta-tiled courtyard brimming with grapevines presents a bright and beckoning outdoor setting that excels in any season.
PODDLE BAR & BISTROT, MELBOURNE AU
Ascending to the upper level, a mirrored cocktail bar forms a sculptural centrepiece surrounded by banquette seating, a roaring fire and an intimate private dining room for twelve. Retro-inspired timber joinery is enlivened with angled timber grains and bronze mosaic tiling, while the layering of contemporary art, wildflowers and vintage pieces creates an eclectic feel. This playful creative energy differentiates Poodle from its established neighbours, offering a spirited and welcome addition to the Fitzroy community.

BLACKBERG COLLECTION
The BLACKBERG COLLECTION was born from the concept of Marie Soliman, founder and creative director of the studio Bergman Interiors (London, UK). The creative need of the project led to enhance the material aspect of the Breccia Medicea dell’Acquasanta in the composition of the sedimentary rock with the function of a valuable design object for use in the luxury segment.

PLUS by Paolo Gonzato
PLUS is a modular sculpture by Paolo Gonzato that does not provide a definitive solution. It‘s an open structure whose parts can be independent. Each cube, formed by six faces, is added (plus) to the others. Materials and textures are juxtaposed in random accumulations.

PLUS BY PAOLO GONZATO, 2021
Entity provided with its own physical consistency, endowed with weight and inertia, capable of adapting to a shape; conceived from time to time as a concrete and differentiated substratum of objects or substances or as a principle considered passive towards the form or antagonistically opposed to the spirit.

ACQUASANTA SINKS
The collection ACQUASANTA SINKS / 22 was born from the need to enhance the material aspect of the Breccia Medicea dell’Acquasanta in the composition of the sedimentary marble with the function of a contemporary design item for everyday use. It’s a special collection of three unique sinks artisanal manufactured by solid stone.
AQ001 RECT SINK
AQ002 ROUND SINK
The sinks collection is made with a short supply chain manufacturing process from carefully selected blocks in the quarry and with a honed manual finish. Every single piece is unique due to the peculiarity of the breccia which gives identifiable but different natural colors.
