About this space

Tucked away in Brisbane, this shoot-ready, chef-designed kitchen blends Mid-Century Modern character with the functionality of a high-performance culinary studio. Created by and for professionals in the food and content industries, it’s a thoughtfully equipped space designed to support both creative and commercial output—from film and food photography to full-scale product development.

The kitchen sits at the heart of the space and is fully outfitted for hands-on use and high-impact visuals. Every surface, appliance, and tool has been considered for those working behind and in front of the camera. There are two sinks, two dishwashers, commercial-grade ice production, and a full suite of small appliances including a Thermomix and KitchenAid—ensuring seamless workflow whether you’re styling a shoot or building a brand from scratch. Generous workbenches allow for multiple prep or styling stations, and a fully stocked collection of pots, pans, and knives means you can step straight in and get started.

A bar and wine fridge add a layer of hospitality flair, ideal for elevating lifestyle shoots or producing content with a food and drink focus. Just beyond, an outdoor kitchen and dining area expands your scene options, letting teams capture indoor-to-outdoor transitions or natural light shifts across the day. With air-conditioning and a fireplace on site, the space remains comfortable and controlled year-round.

Whether you’re hiring it as a working kitchen, a set for your next campaign, or a base for restaurant menu development, this is a location built to perform. Chef Mel is also available as talent or culinary consultant, bringing another layer of creative expertise into the fold.
