Chalk White microcement on the walls and column of Hank's Bagelry at Chadstone, a seamless backdrop to the tiled counters, timber seating and blue accents.

The brief —
Hank's Bagelry's Chadstone store is a 90 m² island site in the shopping centre, designed by LeftField Studio and built by Directitude. Around tiled counters, ripple-profile timber and an amphitheatre of seating, the walls and column needed a calm, seamless surface that would stand up to a busy food counter.

The surface —
Microcement in Chalk White was applied by hand to the walls and the column, wrapping the curve of the column in one continuous surface.
The result —
The soft white finish sits quietly behind the signage, menu board and blue accents, letting the brand do the talking, while giving the walls a hand-made texture that paint can't. With no joints, it stays easy to wipe down in a high-traffic food court.
