Case Study
This trendy footwear and apparel brand launched in 2020 when the world was turned upside down. Just when Victorians became in desperate need of stylish, but affordable lifestyle and sportswear to encourage them to get up and get active every day. With the brand’s explosive national growth in 2021, we were fortunate to be given the opportunity to collaborate with their incredible team and build their 339m2 retail store at Lansell Square in Victoria’s regional town of Bendigo.
The overall store fitout of PIVOT Bendigo has an industrial feel, with the LED high bay lighting, an abundance of metal stripping and wall post racking, concrete look floor tiles and metal clad shopfront. With mostly black and grey throughout, PIVOT’s use of their signature bright red on several acrylic racking units at the rear of the store, and logo vinyl graphic on all mirrors, really pops against the dark hues, creating a powerful and energetic vibe. An ideal atmosphere for their sporty streetwear buying customers.
The large format vinyl floor tiles, complement the industrial feel of the fitout. They’re also as equally eco-friendly as they are stylish. Karndean’s heavy duty commercial flooring is globally GreenTag certified, aligning with the PIVOT’s noble stance around ethical sourcing and sustainability. It’s slip resistant and acoustic noise reducing properties form a highly practical flooring solution for a large open retail space.

Designed by ACRD, and structurally engineered by Structure by Design, the 21 lineal metre shop front features folded metal sheet cladding to create a knuckle joint. This shopfront feature can be a more costly design option, and also complicated for some shopfitters to manufacture and install. However, when done well, a folded metal clad shopfront adds a striking, refined detail line finish.
