SubStation No. 164

With this transformation and extension of two heritage buildings we have developed a concept of suspension, contrast and complement that challenges the established heritage adaptation paradigm; a light ‘anti-extension’ that floats respectfully above the articulated weight of heritage. Workplace, retail and cultural/events uses are woven within new and old fabric. Health and sustainability are central and integral to the design: 100% fresh air 100% green power, 90% recycling rate and a 24% reduction in embodied carbon.
