Mums deserve the best, and so do the brands celebrating them 💕🌸
This Mother’s Day, we were proud to be behind the scenes for some incredible activations:
✦ The David Jones x Jo Malone High Tea Experience.
✦ Puig pop-ups across Australia for Carolina Herrera, Rabanne & Jean Paul Gaultier.
✦ Shark Beauty window at Myer Melbourne for the Shark CryoGlow campaign.
✦ A national T2 rollout mixing print and the flavour market shelves featuring curated tea blends.

Every detail, in full bloom 🌸
We were proud to partner with David Jones on their Mother’s Day High Tea experience, presented by Jo Malone London, delivering a botanical world at the Sydney Elizabeth Street flagship.
The centrepiece was a hand-crafted 3-metre floral installation, engineered by our industrial design team to stand tall, look impeccable, and hold its own in a busy retail environment. Surrounding them are intricate insect props, floor vinyls, a media wall, and bespoke table stationery.
Over 200 guests came together to mark the occasion and share stories of motherhood!

Where care meets the heart of the home 🏠
Step inside Renown Street, where CareCo Academy traded clinical corridors for the nostalgic warmth of a true Australian home to redefine the future of healthcare training.
We transformed an office space into an immersive, simulated residence inspired by family legacy, complete with classic wallpapers, vintage furniture and period-accurate props.
Tull Roseby, founder of Absolute Care & Health, shared: “Dashing didn’t just design a space - they brought our philosophy to life”. A sincere thank you to Tull, Liv and John for the opportunity to be part of this project.

Discover how we revolutionised Mecca’s in-store execution with a bespoke version of our DashingX Campaign Builder.
By integrating directly with their fixture management software, we’ve replaced manual artworking with a seamless “Print Run” workflow that automatically adapts signage to every store’s unique dimensions and branding.
This end-to-end solution slashed reprint costs to zero, empowering the Mecca team to pivot day-to-day campaigns with lightning speed and absolute network compliance. Through automated artwork generation and smart fixture coding, we’re helping Australia’s beauty leader maintain visual excellence while giving hours of time back to their VM and marketing teams.

Winter isn’t just a season; it’s a shift in consumer psychology. ❄️
As temperatures drop across APAC, shoppers become more purposeful and emotionally driven. For retailers, this is the ultimate opportunity to pivot from hibernation to intention.
From the rise of quiet luxury to the return of rich heritage checks and burgundy jewel tones, winter retail is leaning into tactility and storytelling. We’re moving away from cluttered floors and toward spaces that feel like high-end lounges.
Get a first look at the trends, textures, and modular environments that will define the season.

Go Big or Go Home! 🚀
We teamed up with Frasers Property to launch the new ECQ Outlet with an activation that was anything but small.
By diving deep into consumer research, we discovered that shoppers wanted more than just a discount, they wanted a “Big Day Out”. Our solution? The “Go Big!” concept.
Across four main zones, we delivered:
🛍️ The Grand Entry Moment with a 2.7m tall 3D Tote Bag photo op.
🏀 The “Big Hoops” challenge at the Active Zone.
🎡 Spin-to-win fashion giveaways.
🍦 The “Big Chill” ice block station.
High engagement, aspirational value, and a redefined outlet experience. Head to our website to learn more about this exciting project, link in bio.

Global Vision, Local Execution 🤩
We brought Real Energy to Emporium Melbourne, working with On to translate their vision into a high-impact local execution to launch their Cloudmonster 3.

Wander through a world of Easter magic ✨🐰
Returning to The Star Sydney for a second year, we revitalised the Enchanted Garden campaign by thoughtfully reusing core elements and reimagining the activation through a fresh creative lens, balancing environmental consciousness with high-impact design.

Dashing delivered end-to-end, from design to handcrafting, with custom vinyl and floral displays throughout. Additional elements, including trees and illuminated butterflies, were supplied by Visual Empire.
