Commercial Fitouts
DB Projects has delivered retail and commercial fitouts for brands across NSW and nationally — boutique retail, hospitality, workplaces, and blue-chip precinct projects. Every project is completed on time and on budget.
We run the whole job: tenancy advice, concept, documentation, approvals, and construction. One team, one point of accountability, no gaps between design and delivery.
Past clients include Georg Jensen, Alessi, Sunshades Eyewear, Mapo Gelato, and Sol Invictus Motorcycle Co. We’ve also delivered fitouts inside Sydney Airport, Westfield centres, and David Jones stores — precincts where landlord approvals, centre management protocols, and compliance requirements rule out most general fitout contractors.
Who We Work With
- Retail Brands
New stores, refurbishments, and multi-site rollouts — across high-street retail, shopping centres, and airports. We handle the tenancy review, approvals pathway, and the build as a single job.
- Hospitality Operators
Cafés, restaurants, and food retail — including refits on tight trading deadlines. Designed for customer flow, staff workflow, and the daily wear of a venue that actually trades.
- Commercial Clients
Workplaces, professional services, and health-adjacent fitouts. Practical layouts, disciplined documentation, and compliance managed end to end.

Strategy
And Feasibility
Pressure-testing the tenancy, brief, and budget before you commit — so you know what the space can deliver and how the approval path will play out.
Concept Design
Concept design through to full construction documentation — layouts, FF&E, joinery, services — resolved in enough detail to price accurately and build cleanly.
Approvals & Documentation
Coordinating CDC, DA, centre approvals, and certifier sign-off — so the right pathway is chosen early and aligned with the drawings, not worked around after the fact.
Construction & Delivery
Running the build from one point of accountability — never over time, never over budget. Any variation is client-driven, and priced in writing before work continues.
Handover & Support
Commissioning the space, walking you through how it all works, and staying reachable after you open.
What our retail clients say
“Absolute professionals! We were wow’d with their previous projects, so when we appointed David and his team to design and build our concept retail homewares store in Manly, they delivered an outstanding result.
Wonderful to work with — David seriously knows his field. Amazing modernism design. We have people coming into the store through the day commenting on the store. Recommended with the highest regard.”

“The best choice you can do. David is always available for anything you might need and extremely reliable.
Any problem you might have, he’ll find a solution, and we had a few. Very happy with the result and with how everything was handled from start to end.
Couldn’t recommend it more. You’ll be in safe hands.”
