The Studio
Curio is a multi-sensory design studio. We work at the intersection of sound, space, and experience. Shaping the seen and unseen details that make a place feel the way it does.
We design interiors, specify and install audio systems, source art, and build the sonic identities that give a space its atmosphere. Our clients are brands, venues, hotels, and private collectors who understand that the details most people never consciously notice are the ones they always feel. We build those details with intention.
Sound is our anchor. Everything else follows.
Harry Staub
Harry's career has always moved in multiple directions at once.
Beginning in fashion, for over a decade, culminating as Head of Design at Ksubi - shaping the visual identity of one of Australia's most culturally influential brands.
Simultaneously, music. Playing drums since the age of three, running Pharmaceutical Audio - a record label and party collective releasing original electronic music - and hosting the infamous Trespasser, a cult rave series held once or twice a year with a devoted underground following.
Now Curio. A studio that sits at the centre of it all - where a lifetime of fashion, music, and an obsession with atmosphere become one practice. All past and present projects overlap and inform each other. Different viewpoints, evolving over time.
Listening
An international hospitality destination that feels like home. For The Eve Hotel we built an effortless sound that evolves throughout the week. Uniquely tailored for each space - striking the perfect blend of retro and modern, with a few low-key classics plugged in. Eclectic, at times unexpected and laced with local Aus artists. One of our favourites to work on.
Listening
For Thisbowl Radio we channeled groove led selections. Evolving seasonally and with purpose. For the heads that still listen.
Listening
We kept the sound true to spirit. Sometimes gritty, sometimes polished. Sometimes retro, sometimes modern. No rules. Just music that feels right in the spaces.
Listening
Ambient and lo-fi audio curation for Xtra Clubs. With a gentle crescendo through the week, the spaces are always set to the right temperature.
Listening
Porsche NOW: a multi-sensory activation designed to showcase the future of luxury automobiles. The soundtrack followed suit - refined but forward-thinking, blending minimal electronic, ambient textures, and moments of intensity. Subtle luxury with a sense of motion.
Listening
Soundtracking for Mimi's captured everything from laid-back to late-night. New York City energy.
Listening
A space with energy - sleek, modern, always moving. For Tanuki we built the sound around that pulse: Japanese hip hop, smooth electronic cuts and feel-good rhythms. Playful yet precise, just like the dining experience.
Listening
For Matteo we curated a mix of sounds that feel full of life and warmth. Vintage tones and soft moods from your grandparents vinyl collection - built to sit behind long lunches, late afternoons, but not afraid of a cheeky Saturday night.
Listening
We created the soundtrack for the Resort Runway Show in Marrakesh. Presented at Musée de L'art Culinaire Moroccan. Amazing crew involved end to end.
