Melbourne studio Blur Architecture has added a copper-clad extension to a Victorian townhouse in the South Yarra suburb of Melbourne, Australia, with features such as an elevated lap pool and a glass corridor that connects the old and new buildings.
Blur Architecture used materials including weathered copper, glass, steel, bluestone pavers and concrete for Davis, which was designed for a homeowner who wanted to improve their exercise and swimming routine at the house.
The American Australian Association (AAA) recently unveiled its new Murdoch Center in the heart of Midtown Manhattan, designed by renowned architecture firm Woods Bagot. This state-of-the-art cultural center blends flexible office spaces with versatile event areas, providing a dynamic hub for strengthening ties between Australia and the United States.
Featuring a seamless integration of hospitality and functionality, the design incorporates custom movable furnishings and exposed ceilings that create a gallery-like atmosphere, perfectly suited for the AAA’s rotating arts programming.
