Holly Stevens didn’t take the traditional route to become Project Design Manager at Kokoda Property – but let’s be honest, when does the best career path ever follow a straight line? With a background in fashion design, she first joined Kokoda in marketing, but her eye for aesthetics and big-picture thinking led her to carve out a role that fuses design, branding, and customer experiences.
The latest project? Kokoda House – an immersive display space that’s redefining how we experience property before it’s even built. Forget the typical showroom with static floor plans; this is a journey. Guests are taken through a hyper-detailed 3D model of the Teneriffe Banks precinct and then ushered into the Immersion Room, where interactive digital tech brings their future riverfront home to life.

“Purchasing property is not just a rational decision, it’s deeply emotional,” Holly explains. “We wanted our clients to truly connect with the vision we have for these projects.” The result? A space where luxury is tangible, sustainability meets innovation, and every detail is designed to make you fall in love with the future.
Of course, pushing the envelope in design wasn’t without its challenges – namely transforming an old, rundown building into a state-of-the-art experience. But instead of fighting the quirks of the space, Holly and the team leaned in, preserving original brick walls and blending heritage with modern finishes. Sustainability was a priority, with locally sourced materials and energy-efficient designs leading the charge.
Holly stays ahead of the curve by travelling, absorbing global design trends, and keeping a close eye on innovation in everything from hospitality to tech. “Our team recently travelled to Bangkok to experience the flagship Kimpton Hotel to gain inspiration as we open our own Kimpton hotel on the Teneriffe Banks site.”
So, what’s next? While she’s keeping tight-lipped about upcoming hospitality partnerships (watch this space), one thing’s for sure: Kokoda House and Teneriffe Banks are setting a new standard for luxury living in Brisbane. Consider this your official invitation to experience it for yourself.
