Projects:
Kingsford Smith Memorial
Brisbane, 1989
The external form of the museum was inspired by a traditional aircraft hangar shape – an appropriate resting place for the vintage Southern Cross aeroplane. The glass enclosure was designed to ensure the public experienced the aircraft at close quarters without direct sunlight. Unwanted radiation is excluded by incorporating generous overhangs to the North, the glass wall to the South is shaded by fins to exclude direct sun as is the roof on the East and West, which fall to meet the Earth beneath.
Kenlynn Centre
Spring Hill, Brisbane, 1983
The Kenlynn Centre is located on a prominent site in North Brisbane. This project was designed for the Brisbane fringe city strata title office market and consequently needed to be easily subdivided into 100 square metre tenancies. The design maximized the full development potential of the site. The building is located on the site, to create a forecourt between the street and front facade. A layered facade of lattice concrete sunscreen encloses a landscaped forecourt, providing privacy and sun
