Evoke Projects provided a design and fit-out service of our 1000 sqm office in Honeysuckle Drive Newcastle. It was a very important project for Fairfax Media as it is the new home for the Newcastle Herald after decades in our previous location.
Begin with the end in mind


Let our office designers into your life and we will passionately work to understand your organisation, your vision and your objectives. Whether you want design only, or design and construct, our team of architects, engineers and builders are experts in office design and refurbishments.
It’s our culture, our team and our methodology that set Evoke Projects apart from other office design and refurbishment companies.
Our culture
Certified to ISO 9001: 2015, our commitment to continuous improvement and operational excellence runs through the heart of our office refurbishment business.
We go even further than ISO standards with our internal culture to:
DISRUPT, SHAKE UP, CHALLENGE, EVOLVE, CHANGE
We think outside the box and challenge the status quo, looking for ways we can improve our processes and deliver even better office fit-out solutions to our clients.
Our office fit-out team
Zig Ziglar, a famous American, once said: “You don’t build a business – you build people – and then people build the business.” We live by this philosophy and that is why we have the best team in the office design and refurbishment industry.
Creativity, tenacity, expertise and capability all combine to make the perfect team:
- Creativity sets us apart and keeps us ahead of the game.
- Our well-known tenacity gives clients the confidence to partner with us for that first office fit-out project.
- Our expertise and capability deliver results that bring clients back for the next office refurbishment project.
Our office design and refurbishment methodology
Begin with the end in mind.
What great advice from Stephen Covey in his bestselling book The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People. We apply this principle to our office design and refurbishment methodology.
We work hard to understand your desired result and your vision. What are the objectives of your office fit-out? The end that you have in mind is our beginning. It infuses our thought process and the office designs that we will present to you. The office designs are so much more than plans on paper: they are the future of your business and we know that.
The Evoke Projects story
While we like to focus on the here and now and the future, our ‘About Us’ page would not be complete without a little history. The company was founded in 1969 by Neil Kennard. What started as a traditional family business manufacturing office furniture products has become a national office design consultancy firm with offices in every major Australian city (Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne and Perth, as well as Central Coast and Newcastle) and global affiliates in seven international locations.
Three generations of Kennards have managed Evoke Projects; three sons are current Directors and the family continues to innovate and add value to every office refurbishment project.
We are one of the most reputable office design and fit-out companies in Sydney that deliver the complete office refurbishment solution, from design concept to office fit-out completion, including furniture design and manufacture. Your office will become the change you wish to see, both visibly and culturally.
Testimonial
Jerry and the Evoke team have really been a pleasure to work with, and the overall result of the design and a fit out is a real hit. To the point that our group MD jokingly said ‘we don’t want anyone to see Australia, or they will all want new offices!’.
The design team were great. They listened, understood what we needed, and nailed it. The design element of the
project completely exceeded our expectation to the point that every time I walk into our space.
When we met with Evoke to discuss the costings, they asked a lot of detailed
questions and listened intently to gain an understanding of our objectives,
along with the detail of how we operate.
