Shop fitout, King Street Newtown, NSW
2003 |
| The Watershed |
| This was a sweet little project. A shopfront re-do for
Marrickville and South Sydney Council's little eco-experiment; The Watershed. |
| We had a budget of $7,000 and were told the shop needed
to make explicit notions of urban sustainability. So
some fun was had with cardboard & plywood. The wall of plywood
joinery that separates the shopfront from the offices is full of little
nooks & crannies. Useful things open and shut and it is also the home
for some mobile plywood & cardboard stools we designed for the space.
A very long bench made up of over 350 repeating cardboard sections edges
one wall, wearing in slowly over time. |
| The new fitout creates an interesting shopfront to attract
people in, gives staff a talking point whilst dividing the public space
from the offices behind. |
