Kivari Burleigh Heads counter and clothing racks above a light Frost microcement floor

A light Frost microcement floor running through Kivari's James Street boutique in Burleigh Heads, from the shopfront window to the fitting rooms.

The brief —

Kivari's Burleigh Heads boutique opened on James Street in May 2023, a short walk from the beach, with flowing curves and natural furnishings. The floor needed to sit quietly under that as one light, continuous surface, from the window display through the showroom to the fitting rooms. The fit-out was built by Unita.

The surface —

X-Bond microcement in Frost, a soft, light beige, was applied by hand across the shopfront and window display, the main showroom and the fitting room area.

The result —

The pale, seamless floor carries daylight deep into the store and lets the clothing, timber and curved forms stand out. With no grout lines, it reads as one surface from the street to the back of the boutique, and stays simple to keep clean in a busy coastal shop.
