We were approached by civil engineering company Excell Gray Bruni to design and document their Melbourne facility. The program was split into two areas; half a storage warehouse, the other half administration, including reception, meeting rooms, office and staff amenities.

 

The design considered the standard industrial park facilities that surround the site, and its location under a key flight path to Melbourne Airport. The giant wing canopy references aeronautics and concurrently provides a unique focal point for the facility.

 

The reception desk features a recycled brick face and two large recycled timber beams frame it.
