The Brickworks Centre is a multi-purpose site that marries sales office, function space and display suite. The project required robust materials for durability, whilst also conveying the warmth of home. A sense of strength was established by inserting a monolithic stone slab as sales counter. Geometric paving underfoot, inspired by Italian architect Carlo Scarpa, is a nod to the site’s past, and dramatically intersects with bespoke joinery in stunning natural oak.
