Bank First began as the Victorian Teachers Mutual Bank.

A small local bank with only 3 branches, they are driven by their founding values of putting customers first. When they were ready to open a new Branch in Ascot Vale they secured a high street shop as a shell. Their intention was to completely refurbish the dilapidated shopfront into new retail branch and corporate office facility.

RLD was engaged to design the new branch. The space we created is focussed on customers and customer care. We wanted to maintain a community hub feel whilst creating a modern welcoming branch, warm and professional. It also includes the office facilities and amenities, a comfortable open plan environment for staff to collaborative in a light filled space.
