I’ve posted this before but not with the beautiful photos by 📸 @earlcarterstudio Feature art wall at Lendlease’s new HQ @docklandsmelb building and interiors by @hassell_studio . Over 1800 solid timber batons made of reclaimed timber from Melbourne’s Botanic Gardens. The radiating pieces have been chamfered and have a mirrored surface angled so as to contain the reflection close to the surface,which glistens as you walk past. The work references the site at Melbourne Quarter which had at one time been considered a site for theMelbourne’s Botanic Gardens. The work was meticulously hand assembled by the very talented team led by Dirk Leuschner @woodcraftmobiliar and many thanks to the curator @broached_commissions & @louweis @holalacroixrouge from @hassell_studio and @jamesalmurray from @tandemdesignstudio for #technicalguidance #artandarchitecture #docklands #melbournequarter #geometricart #botanicalgardens #hastagging

Digging through the archives this morning and found these pics from 2009 of the car park screen I did with Studio505 now @himmelzimmer @dikjarman @decibelarchitecture & @lucy_clemenger (how’s the RSI Lucy ?) Clad over 5 stories with 25,000 hand folded pieces from laser cut stainless steel @lucy_clemenger traced my scaled paper model into CAD and we spent over a month folding it. We won a gong for that one ! @cityofportphillip @fareastconsortium_au @supadupa_industries 📸 @johngollings @sebastiangollings #facades #facadedesign #facadesofbuildings #artandarchitecture #handmadearchitecture #paperart #foldedmetal

From the archives ! Here are a couple of pics of my first architectural commission. It was the facade for the Australian Pavilion at the 2005 World Expo in Nagoya, Japan. An eye opening experience which sparked my interested in pavilion architecture & the possibilities of art and architectural collaborations and working on Japan. Huge team effort with @himmelzimmer @decibelarchitecture and Dick Jarman. #pavilion #pavilions #worldexpo2005 #worldexpojapan #facades #nighttimeistherighttime #stainlesssteel #aichi #temporaryarchitecture

These 4 pieces were a part of the touring show Steel: Art Design Architecture organized by @jamfactoryau and curated by the inimitable @margaret.hancockdavis which sadly ground to a halt due to the current Coronavirus pandemic. Was a great experience have been part of the show. Nice to see these pieces again albeit sooner than I had anticipated..... However, if you are interested in owning one of these pieces please DM me for details. Framed they are 600mmX400mm
