We weren't involved in this one – Twenty3 Sport + Entertainment were behind it for the AFL – but it definitely made an impression. 👏

And we can see why.

The mirrored exterior made the Team Kylie store hard to miss at Yarra Park, while the locker-room-inspired interior carried the concept right through to the limited-edition AFL x Team Kylie gear.

What we really liked?

It didn't feel like a pop-up dropped into the footy.

It felt like it belonged there.

That's what makes a good activation great – when the idea, the space and the environment all work together.

Great work, Twenty3 Sport + Entertainment 👏

What was your favourite activation from Grand Final week?

It's a privilege to be a small part of a club with this much history. Thanks to the South Sydney Rabbitohs team for trusting us with both.

I can spot an unfinished build from ten feet.

It's never the part you'd expect.

The riskiest point is the one when the job looks finished.

There's a rule from a completely different industry that explains exactly why, and once you've heard it, you'll never walk past a "done" build the same way again.

I get asked all the time how I can tell a build's not ready just by looking at it.

The answer has nothing to do with the build itself.

Recently the team came together at NOMAD in Surry Hills for a night that was equal parts celebration and thank you.

Archie Lewis – All For One

Same team, new name, same reason we do this: each other.

WE’RE HIRING: JOINER / CABINET MAKER

Seen that giant Nike duffle at the NRL Grand Final? That’s us.

At Traction Studio, we build brand activations, pop-ups and event spaces for some of the world’s biggest brands.

We’re looking for an experienced Joiner / Shopfitter who can take projects from drawings through to on-site install, work with a passionate crew and take pride in the details.

📐 Plans & cutting lists
⚙️ Tablesaws, drop saws & CNC
👷 Workshop + onsite install
📍 Sydney NSW, full-time

No two projects are the same. If you’re good at what you do and want to build things people actually notice, we want to hear from you.

DM us to apply.

I've read thousands of quotes.

Three things that seem to blow budgets…

Not the total. Not the logo at the top. Three specific phrases, buried in the middle of a line item, that tell you exactly where the budget's going to get blown out.

Everything that actually determines your final cost is sitting in the wording nobody reads twice.

I broke down the three phrases I look for first, and why each one means something specific.

If you've ever been blindsided by a "final" invoice that didn't match the quote, this is for you.

A new name doesn't mean a new company.

MNR Constructions is now Traction Studio.

Turns out most rebrands are just a new coat of paint.

This one's just us finally matching the name to the work.

If you're with us already, or just about to start, it's business as usual, with a name we're proud to say out loud.

Same people.
Better name for what we've already built.

Nineteen years ago, I was just trying to get through a job without anything blowing up.

No real system. No clear path. Just working it out as I went.

Three years later, I put a name on it: MNR Constructions.

What followed was sixteen years of bigger projects, bigger challenges, and clients who kept coming back and bringing others with them.

Somewhere along the way, the work outgrew the name.

The standard never needed changing.

It just needed a name that matched it.

So today, we’re stepping into the next chapter as Traction Studio.

Same team. Same workshop. Same standard.

Just a new name for what we’ve been building all along.

To everyone who’s trusted us with a project over the years – thank you. You’ve helped shape what this has become, whether you realised it or not.

What was your first job with MNR Constructions, or one you saw us do that stood out?

01/09/2026

We started out, like many great businesses…
doing everything for everybody.

But as we grew, we quickly realised there was huge demand for brand activations, pop-ups and experiential events.

Since then, we’ve built beautiful custom displays for brands like Chanel, Google, Netflix and many more. We become known throughout Australia for doing one thing really well.

So, we’re rebranding to reflect what we’re now famous for.

Traction Studio reflects not where we’ve been, but where we’re going.

We can’t wait to see where it takes us next.
