Media summary

Carrick Hill’s ongoing social and cultural value to the South Australian community is significant, reflecting a range of defining social and cultural values peculiar to the state; generosity, free spirit, beauty, creativity, social and cultural welfare.

Our design vision was to create an elegant visitor pavilion that elevates the visitor experience at Carrick Hill and amplifies South Australia’s unique cultural capital, values and history to the world.

The Pavilion provides a paradigm shift in the quality of visitor experience at Carrick Hill, both honouring the Hayward’s generous legacy and underpinning the Estates ongoing financial viability. It sits on the border of the estates manicured English gardens and the native brush box woodland. The southern side of the building wraps around the gnarled silhouette of an existing gum tree whilst the terrace and function room open themselves with expansive view to the coast, city and original manor house.

The design creates an entry statement to the site, allows flexibility in its use that enhances the opportunities for increasing visitation and awareness of Carrick Hill more broadly.
