A favourable balance of strong contrasting colours, rich timbers, stone and fabric balance the space. The unique and ornate historical detailing is emphasised by clean white lines, offset by quirky elements that fascinate the eye and mind. Exposed and restored are huge timber rafters, the steel structure and a remarkable sandstone wall. Custom-designed workbenches promote flexibility and collaboration, while skylights and heightened ceilings bring natural light to the modern and relaxed loft-style environment. A large monochrome digital print of the Sydney city skyline with a forest of trees before it is countered by colourful, animated creatures—reflecting the natural yet ironic world we live in.
