Lamington Drive

Lamington Drive is a commercial illustration gallery and exhibition space that resides within old stables in inner city Melbourne. On an extremely tight budget, a gallery composed as a series of cardboard sleeve walls was inserted into the existing building fabric. The panels can be easily removed and recycled after every exhibit, and they both calibrate the irregular old building and provide a structure to the layout of exhibitions. Halo tube lights sit in the corners where the cardboard meets the uneven walls. The ceiling of the space is left raw with the provision of naked filament lamps. The resultant space is warm, measured and intimate.
