The Brief
Gold Coast Health (GCHHS) engaged FARA to deliver a high-end fitout for their Head to Health Kids facility, located on the ground floor of the Prana Centre in Nerang. The vision was to create a welcoming, functional space that could support mental health services for children and families, while reflecting the quality and care GCHHS is known for.
The design, led by Archipelago, called for a sophisticated and calming environment, featuring a stunning reception area, open-plan office space, breakout zones, consult and treatment rooms, and a spacious boardroom. With custom joinery and LED-lit Autex panelling, the aesthetic was both modern and inviting.
This was the fourth project FARA delivered for GCHHS, continuing a trusted partnership built on collaboration and shared values.
Our contribution
Our team worked closely with GCHHS and the design consultants to ensure the project met both functional and aesthetic goals, while remaining within budget and on schedule.
Throughout the project, we provided proactive solutions to navigate several challenges, including base building latent condition that required mechanical design changes, water ingress through the existing external wall, and structural cracking in the slab above. By re-sequencing works and maintaining open communication with GCHHS, we ensured the project progressed with only minor delays – and was ultimately delivered on time.
Our team maintained control of the program and budget, delivering strong value for money and a seamless experience for the client.
The remarkable project outcome
The final outcome is a beautiful, highly functional space that enhances the experience for children and families while supporting GCHHS’s vital mental health services. Delivered on time and within budget, the Head to Health Kids fitout showcases the care, quality and professionalism that define GCHHS.
