Memorial Drive Centre Court Stage 2 | Cox Architecture

The redevelopment of Memorial Drive completes a 10-year transformation of one of Adelaide’s most loved sporting and performance venues.

Blending a rich history with contemporary new form, the re-imagined ‘Drive’ provides a major showcase of tennis and events, set within the context and intimacy of the existing southern stand and red brick arches that characterise the site. The project connects Memorial Drive to the Adelaide Oval Plaza, further enhancing the public realm offering and enhancing the activation of Riverbank.

This project marks a highly successful collaboration with our client Tennis SA. The Drive’s evolution has created a new benchmark for sporting and event facilities that celebrate their site, location and context.

Koorie Heritage Trust Stage 2 | Lyons with Greenaway Architects and Architecture Associates

The Koorie Heritage Trust, now expanded into all floors of the Birrarung building in Federation Square, is the first of its kind in an Australian capital city. Delivered through thoughtful collaboration, the First Nations arts and cultural centre connects to Indigenous perspectives and amplifies Indigenous culture in Melbourne’s CBD. A key third pillar of Federation Square, the Koorie Heritage Trust renovation seeks to anchor in the primacy of Country, echoing the colours of Country – the water of the Birrarung, the reds of the blossoms and the river red gums, the warmth of the lightly wooded landscape that once existed in proximity. It is a significant gathering place, a culturally safe space, and a place for people on Wurundjeri lands to be inspired.

Singleton Arts and Cultural Centre | BKA Architecture

The new Singleton Arts and Cultural Centre encourages fresh and exciting creative opportunities in the Hunter Valley. Located on a floodplain, the gallery sustains a flexibility throughout, catering to various demographics and changes in exhibitions, with the design being future proofed to allow for further expansion. Openings of varying shapes puncture the tilt-up concrete envelope, providing glimpses of views to the parkland. The studios are distinct in form, planning and colour. Vivid red steel cladding and steep roof forms solidify the new building as a future icon in the Hunter Valley. With bold sloping roof forms, the gallery emerges from the parkland site as one makes their way along the New England Highway, a thoroughfare for tourists. The new building promotes creative activities, providing space for functions and art shows, as well as providing the rural community with access to international exhibitions.
