RUSHCUTTERS BAY

RUSHCUTTERS BAY

The design strategy was to restore the existing structure’s prominence in the parkland and create better physical and visual connections around it. Three buildings that surrounded and attached to the grandstand, cutting it off from the street and parkland behind, were demolished. In order to minimize the impact of the new additions, they are placed directly..
Armory Memory

Armory Memory

Blaxland Riverside Park adjoins Newington Armory and the former Sydney 2000 Olympic site.

PYRMONT MASTERPLAN

PYRMONT MASTERPLAN

Shoreline is a harbour-side proposal that seeks to reinstate the balance between the natural eco-system and man’s habitation on the harbours edge.

Over the last 200 years Sydney Harbour’s shorelines have been built and..

After this point the pathway splits, with the administration, community and commercial..

SOUTH DARLING HARBOUR

SOUTH DARLING HARBOUR

A new mixed use precinct was to be located in a small park just south of the major arterial roadways heading west from the Sydney CBD. The Design for Gateway 21 proposed shifting the built element into the middle of what is a typical ‘spaghetti junction’ of freeways and overpasses. The development would embrace the..
