Suncorp Stadium Centreline Lounge | Populous

The reimagining of Level 4 within the original western stand at Suncorp Stadium delivers a unique hospitality offering, connected to the on field action with the best seat in the house. The design aims to create an environment that resonates with the passion of sports enthusiasts while providing a comfortable haven for socialising and networking, in contrast to the traditional corporate model.

A warm and inviting palette aims to capture the essence of balmy Queensland evenings and the painted skies which grace the stadium during evening events. Art deco styling elements and softly curved geometries are used to contribute to a sense of luxury and create a visually dynamic and sophisticated atmosphere, elevating the premium experience for patrons.

State Library Auditorium & Photography Gallery | Cullen Feng + Andrew Andersons

This project involved the creation of a new 350 seat tiered auditorium housed in the original bookstacks below the iconic Mitchell Reading Room; the revitalisation of a large atrium space in the Macquarie Budling to serve as foyer/breakout space for the auditorium; the creation of two new gallery/circulation spaces the larger one as a dedicated photography gallery allowing parts of the Library’s extraordinary collection of two million images to be displayed for the very first time and the upgrading of the public entrance of both buildings to provide complying equitable access.

The shear heads of the concrete columns removed from the original structure are retained and visible within the auditorium space suspended below four new large steel trusses. The perimeter of the room has been designed with timber cladding metaphorically surrounding the visitor with a memory of the bookstacks from which the space was carved.
