Renowned Australian haircare brand KEVIN.MURPHY has unveiled a new headquarters in Brisbane, launching a new office and studio hybrid to become the national epicentre of the brand.
This new space brings KEVIN.MURPHY back to its Australian roots as the first official Aussie base for the brand. KEVIN.MURPHY already has offices in Copenhagen, Salt Lake City, Singapore and Paris, and this extension of its Australian DNA elevates their local physical brand presence, celebrates its Australian roots and honours the company’s specifically Australian culture.
“As a Global Australian brand, we now have a space where our Australian employees can collaborate, learn, be inspired, and better prepare for the future,” said Kevin Murphy Group CEO, Laurent Misischi. “Not only is Brisbane a beautiful city, but it is also a national and international launchpad for business growth and talent acquisition, boasting an enviable outdoor lifestyle and ‘laid back’ way of life.”
The space has been designed with a modernistic approach and with multipurpose capabilities to double as both an office space as well as a functional salon and more. The space has testing facility components, multiple communal spaces, individual workspaces, a podcast studio and education spaces that will host digital and in-person experiences for stylists. A neutral colour palette with luxury interiors and finishes ensures a stylish overall aesthetic.
Importantly, the space is also socially and environmental conscious with considered design elements that give back the environment and the community, embodying the brand’s commitment to environmental and social responsibility. The Kevin Murphy Group has partnered with the fit-out company ‘Growth Australia’, which donates to the Kids with Cancer Foundation for every square metre of office space that they design and build. The Kevin Murphy Group has also matched this donation to support medical staff, researchers, hospitals and families of children with cancer with their contribution.
Additionally, the space incorporates solar panels installed on the roof, which will strongly reduce the carbon footprint of the space over time, as electricity generated from the solar panels will be either used by the office operations, or excess electricity generated from the panels will be fed into the electricity grid. This extends the brand’s significant obligation to the planet at large.
Congratulations to KEVIN.MURPHY on this new venture.
