La Trobe

Melbourne, Victoria, AUS

The blend between monolithic, geometric forms and expressive, artistic tones evokes the traditional styles of Brutalism and Postmodernism.

The ground floor lobby harmoniously connects the North and South tower through subtle assimilation between materials, architecture and lighting.

The tranquil surrounds of Flagstaff gardens are emulated throughout the lobby to suggest a bustling outdoor streetscape. Curved lighting contours and a custom tensegrity-inspired chandelier masterfully creates a welcoming atmosphere.
