Designed for a singular occupant, this project blurs the line between a place for work, and a folly.

Nestled within a sensitive heritage context, this project explores architectural form through a synthesis of bending and contorting steel, and breaks away from conventional approaches to design in an  urban setting.

A cage encapsulates and integrates with a roof garden, sitting atop an office of concrete & glass, with an internal garden atrium.

The nature of the form of the building, dynamic and slender with spindly bending, twisting  webs,  contorted and intertwined, is in direct contrast to the rational massing and traditional form  of the former police building adjacent, a building of heritage significance, on the heritage register (1878).

It is this contrast which highlights the inherent character and individuality of both buildings standing side by side as  a direct expression of time, evolution.

This project is an exploration of abstraction and exploitation of pure geometric forms. Majestic expressions of distortion, manipulation and movement are at play, with balance in organic composition to create overall harmony

 
 
 
 
 

This project explores the physical expression of force, manipulation and distortion of steel form, abstraction and symphonic movement in composition.
