Colourful & Kitsch Retro Townhouse | 80s-Inspired Shoot Location | Brisbane, QLD

A maximalist dream with a nostalgic twist, this retro inner-city townhouse in Brisbane is made for fashion-forward shoots, music videos, commercials, or film projects seeking colour, character, and unapologetic fun. Influenced by 1980s postmodern design and the art deco revival era, the space is packed with kitsch furnishings, bold murals, and playful design cues that make every corner feel like a curated set.

Inside, each room is a visual feast. Expect sculptural furniture, vibrant walls, and collectable retro objects—many of which can be moved or removed by request to suit your shoot’s aesthetic. From pop-colour ceramics to vintage lamps and layered textures, the styling brings energy to stills and motion content alike.

A standout feature is the unfurnished front room, filled with natural light and anchored by a black-and-white Memphis design wall—perfect as a bold backdrop for portraits, product styling, or prop-heavy editorial shoots. This room provides a flexible blank slate within the context of the otherwise richly decorated home.

The open-plan living and dining area flows out to a partially shaded back deck that looks over a classic 70s-style kidney-shaped pool and shared tennis court. With lush greenery wrapping around the outdoor zone, this area gives off strong Miami retro vibes and is ideal for warm-weather fashion, resortwear, or summer campaign content.

Upstairs, a bright stairwell with a large mural and decorative window leads to the colourful master bedroom, complete with a Juliet balcony overlooking the pool. This room is bold, expressive, and perfectly lit—ideal for styled shoots or character scenes.

The home is best suited to adult crews or models, with supervision required for any children on set. The owner may remain discreetly onsite (upstairs in a non-shootable area with two friendly cats) to assist with moving items and keeping fragile pieces safe.

If your shoot needs character, colour, and a touch of nostalgic cool, this kitsch retro townhouse delivers a playful punch of personality—right in the heart of Brisbane.
