The new space includes 50% increase in floor area, 5m high gallery spaces, creative learning spaces for school programs, lecture theatre, cafe and back of house areas. When opened, the new extension, likened to an abstract Rubik’s cube, will have a new entry that connects the Rocks Area to the Sydney Foreshore.

Aeron Chair’s new shades, Nightfall and Jasper, arrive with a sense of quiet cohesion – no bells and whistles, no loud technicolour; just two timeless, perfectly versatile near-neutrals.
