Fyshwick Warehouses

< back

Comprised of 20 boutique modern industrial suites, this development is located in the Canberra industrial suburb of Fyshwick. Each of the high-quality suites incorporates a small shopfront/reception area, a mezzanine and a larger rear storage/workshop space. Two buildings containing the suites are separated by a central outdoor space which includes visitor parking and a landscaped public plaza. By internalising the orientation of the suites towards the created outdoor space, outlook towards unsightly neighbouring warehouses is avoided. A stepped façade provides individuality to the entrance of each unit while signage is integrated into the landscaping.

A cafe is located at the entrance to the new precinct, concentrating pedestrian activity and intensifying the activation of the central outdoor space. An adjacent outdoor seating area is positioned to receive significant sunlight.

Two office spaces are presented as raised forms which act as the focal points of the development. These spaces are accessible via stairs which are a feature of the central public open space. Linear windows provide these office spaces with expansive views across the suburb of Fyshwick.
