EDITION / 04 / 2021 Capability Statement

ARCHITECTURE & INTERIOR DESIGN

Architectural Collaborative is a team of professional designers who provide a range of architectural and interior design services in a variety of sectors including education, commercial, child care centres, retail, sports and leisure, residential, health and aged care and industrial.

With over 10 years of strong industry presence our focus is on working together with clients, stakeholders and building users to create spaces and places that enrich people’s lives.

Architectural Collaborative team’s history originates from Opus Architecture which had a strong presence since the acquisition of Tabletop Architects in 2008. When Opus was later acquired by the global engineering firm WSP, an opportunity arose to move away from the engineering multi-disciplinary organisation and create a new entity with architecture and interior design as our core delivery service. From this Architectural Collaborative Pty Ltd was established in 2018.

Approach to Design Architecture is a response.

Design begins when pen hits paper. Our talented team work in a workshop based environment to generate concepts for inspired and progressive settings for our designs.

We develop an architectural language that is fluid and adaptive to broader engagement with additional stakeholders and further discussions with the client.

Our close working relationships with many consultants leads to a holistic approach of sustainable practices. We utilise the knowledge of mechanical, hydraulic, facade, structural and electrical engineers to keep up to date with today’s best sustainability practices.

This exchange of knowledge begins in seminars held by our industry colleagues that is then shared with our clients and in the right circumstances and opportunity, implemented into our architecture and designs.

Throughout our collaborative design process of sketching, interactive modelling, drawing and discussion we produce buildings that enhance the user experience while inspiring good design.

The strength in our delivery of architectural projects is found in the multitude of design capabilities of our team. From sketching to architectural 3D visualisation to applying the necessary practical knowledge of construction detailing to adhering to legislation. As listed in the services we offer, our team are well equipped for a wide range of architectural and design project types which is evident in our portfolio of work.

Working closely with our clients, our team can complete the contract administration transparently to ensure their projects come to the realisation that was founded in the early phases of the design process.

Throughout this process and from the onset of our engagement our clients develop an enhanced understanding of the fundamentals of good design. This enhanced knowledge then allows clients to demonstrate excellent governance and creates a transparent decision making process with their stakeholders.

Our clients benefit from this approach as it allows them to: - Improve communication - Justify funding requests - Make economic decisions based on fact - Understand our services, costs and associated risks - Show their commitment to sustainable resourcing - Demonstrate the value and services we provide - Benchmark and measure our performance - Encourage continuous improvement

PRACTICE // 15

Our collaborative delivery process is found most evidently in the integration of interior design services within our architectural projects while also being able to deliver interior design as a standalone discipline.

Headed by Ali, who has over two decades of experience, our interior design team has seamlessly worked in tandem with the architecture team delivering unified designs.

Through establishment of the interior design style, the architecture is able to adapt, respond and reflect this aesthetic approach and provide formal structures externally that positively impact on the internal space.

Architectural Collaborative succeeds as architectural projects are developed with the expertise of the interior design team integrated at project inception.

Clients are provided with the knowledge and expertise of the following interiors services: Concept Design Mood Boards Product Sampling Colour Schemes Material Selection Space Planning Furniture Layouts Soft Furnishings Sourcing of Products Joinery & Cabinetry Design 3D Visualisation Documentation Schedule of Finishes Tendering Consultation Construction Services

HABITAT EARLY LEARNING Habitat at Nundah was designed as a premier childcare facility for the inner northern suburbs of Brisbane. The centre accommodates 129 children, who are split into two curriculums: standard (mainstream) and Montessori.

The centre was designed to maximise light, natural air, and ceiling heights. Positioned at the top of a hill overlooking the suburbs and CBD, the design included a strong emphasis on views, especially from the foyer and top floor staff spaces. With regard to staff, our client requested that we provide salubrious and inviting series of staff spaces, to assist them in attracting the best personnel to the centre.

In accordance with Montessori principles, internal and external spaces favour natural materials like timber and brick. The Montessori element also demanded that learning spaces have an enhanced connection to the natural world, which was achieved through a careful design of external playspaces by the landscape architects.

In addition to the standard facilities, the centre included a mothers room, a top-floor multipurpose room/deck with recording studio, and an interactive kitchen (with adjacent kitchen court and vegetable garden) to assist in the learning process.

Overall the design sought to be respectful of its context. Materials and elements were selected to relate it to the buildings in the surrounding precinct, which included a church, a nunnery and a school.

Simultaneously, the design aesthetic aimed to be slightly more ‘playful’ and child-focused than a standard building, so children would instinctively feel less intimidated and more relaxed when at this centre.

SYMES GROVE AGED CARE FACILITY Symes Grove is a 105 Bed Aged Care Facility located in Taigum, North Brisbane. It was designed with three primary objectives; to maximise light and views for residents, to optimise staff efficiencies for travel and supervision and thirdly to reduce energy consumption through passive design.

Unlike the usual loop-style plan favoured for most aged care facilities, this centre was planned like the spokes of a wheel, with a series of wings branching off a centralised social & staff space.

This proved beneficial for several reasons – staff inefficiencies and walking distances were minimised, the supervision capacity of corridors increased, and rooms generally had greater access to views and sunlight. As each wing had a unique orientation, we devised a series of different façade systems to block or filter direct summer sunlight penetration into rooms, resulting in increased comfort and reduced loads on air conditioning.

This centre was also notable for its approach to special care (dementia) areas. Instead of placing all the dementia-affected patients in a large loop-planned ward, the special care wing was broken into a series of ‘cottages’ consisting of six to eight bedrooms, a living room, a resident’s kitchen, a resident’s laundry, and a garden. All these spaces were linked together in a smaller circular path so that resident circumambulation of the facility (necessitated in special care) would still be provided. However, the small scale of these cottages meant that they could conform to these standards while retaining a more intimate and homely feel.

BAXTER STREET APARTMENTS The Baxter Street Apartment is a 52-unit development located in Fortitude Valley in inner-Brisbane. The building was designed to maximise efficiencies and floor space on a highly constrained site, where the form was largely determined by council planning envelopes and building regulations.

The main feature of the building is a series of glass fins mounted on the facade which served to provide sun protection while also emphasising the verticality of the form. This was done to counter the bulky shape that was driven by the 5 storey podium requirement. The colours relate to the hues commonly associated with Brisbane - reds, greens and purples of summer jacaranda and poinciana trees.

We provided the concept design through to documentation, including the interior design of the club lounge media room and the roof deck, which were added to the project at a late stage during construction. For the club lounge, we lined the walls with acoustic panelling and LED lighting in long vertical stripes of varying thickness, relating to the building’s external appearance.

We also followed this language in the design of the roof deck, which was planned into several different spaces catering for groups of different sizes. This included a lap pool, 2 outdoor cinema zones and an open air gym. The apartment designs were completed in conjunction with Elm Interiors.

This project was awarded the Master Builders Housing and Constructions Award of Residential Building (high-rise over 3 storeys) up to $20 million.

THE EVENTS CENTRE As part of the Building Better Regions fund, The Events Centre in Caloundra was granted a $6 million redevelopment which involved a striking new entry including a porte cochere and internal works to the foyer, bar and cafe, kitchen, main theatre and major HVAC works. The success of this project lies in the balance of the proposed design with the existing fabric. Our approach celebrates the existing 1980’s Art-Deco inspired structure and materiality while meeting the client’s ‘Centre by the Sea’ theme.

The facade along Minchinton Street has been completely revitalised with a new porte cochere, covered deck and covered link. These curvaceous forms pay respect to the existing structure while also meeting the client’s brief. The design captures elements of Caloundra and the wider Sunshine Coast region through the use of material, form and subtle articulation.

Timber extrusions extend beyond the structure in an intentional pattern to reference the Glasshouse Mountains of Sunshine Coast’s hinterland while emphasising the client’s desire for a wave structure. Timber materiality references the Caloundra boardwalk at it’s local Bulcock Beach which is also the highlighting material within the Main Theatre.

The multi-purposed Main Theatre consisted of providing new wall and ceiling surfaces while working existing seating, stages and lighting designs. Working closely with the acoustic engineer, particular surface patterns and shapes were selected to create a multi-functional theatre space while meeting client satisfaction aesthetically and acoustically. Meeting the versatile space’s acoustic, functional and aesthetic expectation is the design’s strength.

MARY MACKILLOP BUILDING The Mt Maria College BGA 2017 project consists of three science labs, three general learning classrooms, a learning support zone with associated staff facilities, student amenities and a new tuckshop.

We approached the design by first analysing the site in terms of visual/ ambulatory axes through the school. Using this to divide the site into pathways, we then considered the bulk and scale of the form and how it could respond to solar orientation, clearance from surrounding buildings (for overshadowing), site restrictions, and avoiding the landscaped poinciana trees to the north.

With this established, we allocated functions based on ideal position – the tuckshop and eating area was situated at the heart of the school to the east, the amenities were close to main pathways, the more ‘internalised’ science rooms were located on the periphery to the west, while the learning support and chill-out areas were given the calmer spaces on the upper floor. While undertaking this, we also considered the aesthetics and how the building could merge seamlessly into its context.

Materials, colours, the roof form and other design elements where all selected to ensure the new centre would fit harmoniously with the surrounding campus buildings.

Lastly, the centre was given character inside and out through interior design and landscape architecture. The interior design infused each room a greater sense of identity by utilising varying colour schemes in green, blue, yellow and red.

Landscape-wise, the goal was to merge landscape and building where possible, an aim which is most visible in the undulating sandstone-block planters that run through the main social spaces.

LOGAN METRO SPORTS PARK Logan City Council redeveloped and expanded their Logan Metro Sports Park in Browns Plains.

The development included four new rectangular sports fields and two clubhouses along with ample parking for big events. The new clubhouses serve as the training base and home ground for the A-League team, Brisbane Roar Football Club and local football governing body Football Brisbane.

By combining these two major stakeholders, the development has become a prominent location within the Football community.

Brisbane Roar’s Training Facility was developed to become a Premier location for the Brisbane Roar. The training base includes a premier full-size football pitch with associated change room, medical/Physio room and kit room. This is supplemented by offices for the coaching staff, commercial kitchen and social space.

The premier football field is setup to host low attendance matches with a spectator hill alongside holding the potential for a future development of a grandstand.

Football Brisbane’s Facilities acts as both the organisations head office and home ground for Football Brisbane events. The provision of three full-sized football pitches gives the organisation the flexibility to host local high profile matches such as National Premier League games and community tournaments. In addition to offices spaces, the facility includes a canteen, public amenities, match facilities such as First Aid Rooms & Referees Rooms and four spacious changerooms for the players.

MONARC DEVELOPMENT Monarc Development is a 5 storey mixed-use development and is the first stage on a site that will see four multi-residential built beside this building.

Located on a corner site, the building adapts to three levels of entry being on South Pine Road, Woolworths Street and the rear basement carpark entry.

Engaged under a design and construct contract, the team assisted Niclin in the construction phase of the project encompassing approvals, construction detailing, cost saving processes and the co-ordination of consultant drawings.

We assisted the contractors with resolving coordination oversight and design flaws, including pre-empting any clashes or faults in the existing design.

Adopting a previously approved design meant there was little opportunity for change of design or specification of products - however, taking on the design and resolving the details to ensure the intent was delivered to a high quality was a key focus for the team. Providing detailing and a high level review to the design prior to construction ensured a smooth and uninterrupted construction process for the contractor.

SCREEN QUEENSLAND STUDIOS The Screen Queensland Studios are part of the Queensland’s Government’s $12m investment into new film and television production studios to bolster the Queensland film industries capabilities.

INDUSTRIAL

Working in collaboration with WSP (international multi-disciplinary consultancy) the team at Architectural Collaborative provided architecture and graphic design services for the conversion of the existing warehouses and offices into a stateof-the-art facility capable of attracting international productions to the Queensland Region.

COMPLETED 2018

The project consisted of the refurbishment and change of use of the existing cotton warehouses to; two soundstages of 3,000m2 each; two warehouses of 3,000m2 each; mixed use building of 3,000m2 Sound stages require a very specific micro-climate to allow for the building of set’s and the recording of productions. As light and noise is controlled artificially within the production itself, any light and noise penetrating the building fabric must be removed to allow for consistent recording. In a new build this is simple as the external fabric can be designed from the inside-out to ensure the space is contained. Retro-fitting an existing building though is difficult, as any addition must work within the confines of the existing cladding and structural constraints of the existing facility.

As the project would have a high rotation of tenants and users it was important to provide a detailed wayfinding approach to the entirety of the facility. The team provided graphic design services to complete wayfinding & signage throughout the site. Building off Screen Queensland’s logo the pixel and their corporate colours.

The location of the new Kmart store will provide a new retail hub to service the coastal town of Port Macquarie The format of the store is laid out the basis of a large single footprint that allows for generous floor plate for customers along with providing a large back of house area for the delivery and distribution of stock. The back of house also contains offices and amenities for staff.

Externally the store visually welcomes customer entrance via a glazed wind lobby that provides a double height entry space acting as the threshold between the external environment and the wonders of the retail merchandise that await your purchase.

Anchored to either side of the main Kmart entry portal are a number of smaller tenancies that provide a range of other bespoke retail offerings.

These tenancies have glazed shopfront so as customers and onlookers can engage visually and metaphorically with the active daily rituals of shopping and socializing.

The palate of materials that the building is intended to be constructed from is a combination of concrete, steel, glass and timber battens and screens. The colours and finishes are predominately natural, to enable the building to integrate into its surroundings and local environs.

GOLDFINCH CAFE ‘Goldfinch’ is a refurbishment of an existing restaurant located on the ground floor of the Pullman Hotel in Brisbane. Seating approximately 200 people, project involved the refurbishment of the current outdated, dark ‘heavy’ 70’s environment.

The client brief was to ‘lighten up the space’ and make it ‘more appealing to passers by and hotel client”. With this in mind, the design approach resulted in a slight re-shuffle of the interior layout to create some formal and some less formal dining spaces such as banquette seating, as well as a cafe area where pedestrians can walk up to a service and display counter to order coffee. The palette is light and fresh with a hint of elegance in the bronze trimming which is anchored to subtle references of the hotels rich history.

Our involvement followed a concept scheme by CW Interior Design, who designed the restaurant in a ‘conservatory style’ that emphasised a panelledwall aesthetic with reflective surfaces and hanging plants & lights.

We were engaged to refine the layout, resolve details, produce 3D renders, assemble a full schedule of finishes, provide construction documentation and assist with RFIs in the building process. The refurbishment invigorated what was previously a relatively flat and underutilised space.
