Activating the Heart of the Building
628 Bourke Street’s lobby was functional but lifeless, a space to move through, not stay in.

Working with PMG Group, we helped transform it into a vibrant business hub. District supplied Elements Valve tables, Elements DUO workstations, Alias Rolling Frame seating, and District X Adam Cornish Habitat booths and chairs, bringing flexibility and warmth to the heart of the building.

The result? A destination where tenants gather, meetings flow, and the lobby now feels like the building’s beating heart.
