The 2009 Corian® Design Award for Edition 2 commercial category has been awarded to Amy Lanham and Nettleton Tribe Architects for their design of the Santos House refurbishment in Brisbane, Queensland.

The award organisers said:

“The design objective for this project was to enlighten the space through the considered use of materials and finishes. A sleek, geometric design was explored to target a corporate inner city market. Organic shaped motifs were introduced to balance and compliment the overall design.

“An important design requirement was the use and consideration of the existing finishes including the glass re-enforced concrete cladding. Glazing patch fittings were used to align the new glass and Corian® walls precisely amongst the existing structure and cladding elements for a seamless integration.

“A mix of vision and obscure glazing combined with Corian® Glacier White enabled Nettleton Tribe to balance the privacy demands of the new tenancy spaces.”

In the last instalment of our three-part performance seating series, Alex Bain from Architectus explains why sitting well shouldn’t feel like sitting at all and explores an unexpected success metric of the hybrid workplace: the grounding power of emotional support.

Dipped in integrity: The profound depth of Aeron Chair’s extended palette

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. But the new hues aren’t just about colour – and their significance is much more profound than their surface-level subtlety might suggest.

Stepping into Intuit’s Sydney workplace certainly doesn’t feel like walking into an office. Why? In this film, we discover that, when joy takes precedence as a design driver, even a high-performing commercial CBD headquarters can feel like an intuitive wonderland that invites employees to choose their own adventure.
