Colorbond Award for Steel Architecture + State Award for Public Architecture

Posted on Jun 27, 2016

The Condensery picked up a couple of State awards at the AIA Queensland Architecture Awards on Friday night:
– The Colorbond Award for Steel Architecture
– State Award for Public Architecture

Jury citation for the Colorbond Award for Steel Architecture: The Condensery utilises colorbond external sheeting, in subtle textural variations, to retain the original galvanised linings as an interior. A sleeve of new roofing evokes the old form and the tapestry of reds found in the rust. A colour and material palette, inspired by steel, permeates the interiors.
