Architecture that reflects Brunswick’s rich history

Brunswick has a rich history and a wonderfully diverse population. With architecture by the award-winning architects at Carr, the design pays homage to Brunswick’s industrial heritage, solidifying Brunswick Yard as an example of how the suburb’s rich history continues to live on today.

Chris McCue from Carr says that “The design references the robust warehouses in the immediate precinct, and the rhythm of the finer grain heritage buildings along Sydney Road. Modernist influences are evident in the rawness and bold honesty of the building. The central outdoor space takes inspiration from the suburban backyard.”

Brunswick Yard is an important contribution to the evolution of Brunswick’s urban landscape, with architecture that takes its cues from the flat roof lines, simplified forms, cantilevered eaves and large, unadorned windows that characterise the modernist movement. The raw concrete, exposed steel and glazing are juxtaposed by a curated selection of plants that create synergy between the man-made environment and nature.
