MOSTAGHIM played an integral role in transforming a Formule One Hotel into a dynamic hub in Sydney’s Kings Cross, creating a relaxed and informal atmosphere better suited to its younger guest profile. The brief included a soft refurbishment of existing rooms alongside a complete redesign of the lobby and public areas.

​

In reconfiguring the lobby, the focus was on multifunctionality—maximizing space efficiency while fostering social engagement. The lobby was divided into distinct zones for eating and drinking, lounging, and working, ensuring flexibility for different guest needs.

​

As part of this work, MOSTAGHIM also rationalized back-of-house spaces, allowing for the creation of an additional hotel suite—further optimizing the site’s potential.
