Some quick shots of darling walk under construction.  An office building replacing the sega world site.  Hope to get some more polished shots when its complete.

had serious laundry issues after this shot was taken

Had the opportunity to visit Chatswood Civic Place.  The project is really shaping up.  Most of the concrete is poured, the steelwork is starting to get erected.  All the scaffolding is shaped to the curvy form of the building, can start to imagine it now.

Helmets and glasses don’t mix.  Helmets, glasses and camera walking up stairs without handrails is even more of a challenge.

The trusses for the concert hall are laid out ready for installation.  To the left is the watercourt, and in the background are the retail buildings.

The drum theatre shaping up.

Looking over the Level 1 terrace.

This truss supports the atrium glazing, and will be clad in timber veneer

The top of the concert hall.

Realised at this point that I was scared of heights.

Looking down from somewhere high.  In the foreground is the concert hall facade wing.

Walking through the Library level.  The library stair is to the right with a skylight above it.  To the left is the watercourt.

Some model pix of the Chatswood Civic Place.  This is a project that I worked on for a while.  Its now under construction.  It includes a concert hall, a theatre, a multipurpose hall, library and retail.

The plaza and watercourt are surrounded by sandstone retail blocks

Had the great opportunity of heading to Auckland to take pics of a building that I have worked on and off from competition through to documentation.

the atrium social bridge

the ‘north head’.  took a while to work out how to cantilever glass 10m+

Some pics of mine were published in the latest Architectral Review journal.

Worked with OMF to produce an image for a christian campsite in rural thailand.

Recent pics of Surry Hills Centre, comprising library, community centre and childcare centre designed by FJMT for the City of Sydney.  Involvement in this project was very little consisting of a site visit, a couple of weeks during schematic design, and a bunch of photos at the end.
