Complex, organic design unfolds in 1950s heritage site
The MLC Campus in North Sydney was designed to create an
environment of open communication, discussion and generation of
ideas in distinctive working environments. MLC wished to create an
auditorium/entertainment area, client meeting area, casual lounge
and terrace in the heritage listed building’s ground floor. With
experience in restoring, extending and preserving heritage-listed
structures, ISIS was able to apply techniques and manage
contractors to ensure the integrity of the building was unaffected
by the project.
Onsite modeling creates unique interior
Bringing to life the architect’s bold, origami-inspired design
for the terrace and casual lounge areas presented a particular
challenge. ISIS’ solution was a full scale, onsite modelling
approach. By forming an outline of the various facets of ceiling
and roofing elements, we presented a visual guide to the architect
and client. Once the model was approved, specifications were sent
to Germany, where the stretch fabric “facets” were cut to size for
application to the structural steel sub-frame.
