Jebsens Adaptive Reuse
Project Description
Location: Fremantle, WA
Advertisement
Client: Nic Brunsdon
Year: 2022
Jebsens building, located in Fremantle’s West End, possesses a strong industrial history and a long standing relationship with the port of Fremantle. My historical exploration of the site made it clear that Jebsens building has a long history of bringing people with a variety of ideas and backgrounds together.
This project aims to revive the same sense of life that has been lacking in recent years. In the basement, movable exhibition and seating elements make for an adaptable event space, whilst new polished concrete flooring with concealed up lighting draws attention to Jebsen’s industrial history.
The new co-working space is flexible, welcoming and collaborative, with features inspired by the colours, shapes, and materials found in the port of Fremantle.
