Interior Space Creates the Requisite Bump or Overlap of Interaction
AMP Angel Place Lobby Refurbishment
The feel of a space is often an undervalued concept, yet this work embodies the notion of the imperceptible by creating a repeating series of rooms within a room. The matryoshka approach to interior space creates the requisite bump or overlap of interaction, which makes for lively space further emphasised by the layering of warm, rich patterns and materiality. At its best, this typology typically results in the now familiar attractive ‘pass-through’ space; a space one could contemplate visiting without having business in the building above. This represents a rarity in the city that could easily be replicated as another layer of our city’s detail.

If landscape is to be prioritised in any house, often what is then left over is a compromise of internal spaces difficult to reconcile. In this narrow site, internal spaces engage masterfully with the very garden that has hollowed them out.
The gardens are developed as part of the interior, providing the fourth wall of every room. Tiny, impractically shaped spaces are made purposeful via an engagement with gardens which often offer the third wall to the interiors presented. This is difficult to read in plan but clear on closer inspection. Surprisingly, the prioritisation of the landscape has formed a residue for very engaging interiors.

CBA ‘Axle’ South Eveleigh
Appreciation for a workspace as a place of choice is embodied in this commercial interior. The joy in the work is borne out of the broad architectural decision to provide an internalised atrium of light engaging a society of highly adaptable rooms. The interior atrium is a well considered move in the plans that is perhaps a result of an acknowledgement that the urban street form of the precinct may be flawed, and that the interior may need to compensate.
This is a highly accomplished work that can be lauded for providing a joy filled internalised public environment, redressing what is deeply lacking in the street with a superior interior outcome.

Emanuel Synagogue
A contemporary addition to the faith community, this work purports to provide a contemporary and radical expression of an interior for one of the most ancient forms of worship. Its expressions are bold, constructional and humane within the context of a structural pattern that considers the importance of architectural hierarchy and order. The room is a surprising colour and the transformative experience of this colour provides an intrigue and rareness to the traditional forms of this building type.
