Recently we have completed a project for the City of Ballarat - delivering a multipurpose Annexe for the Art Gallery of Ballarat which allows this leading arts institution to engage with its urban realm, host public events and increase capacity. APPROACH Our approach is to make projects with equal parts intuition and reason, developing distinctive and inventive architecture. Our proposals are strategic, designs are innovative and solutions are unique. We apply the same design ambition to all scales and typologies from small scale residential, commercial and public realm projects to larger scale civic and urban plans. We are a young and ambitious practice who enjoy a challenge. We place a strong emphasis on uncovering opportunities where specific constraints and conditions become openings for design differentiation and catalysts for creative and innovative outcomes. Our innovative approach to design has seen the office win several international design competitions for public buildings and urban design in Europe and Asia. These include a ‘City Spatial Design & Mobility Centre’ project sponsored by UN-Habitat in Kosovo, and 1st round of ‘MoCAPE - Museum of Contemporary Art & Planning Exhibition’ in Shenzhen, China. Our design approach is inclusive not exclusive. We look to engage in dialogue, collaborate and share ideas, approaching design strategically rather than imposing solutions. We explore strategies for architectural innovation by integrating architectural practice and research agendas through our involvement as architecture & urban design studio leaders at RMIT University. Our projects have been published and exhibited in Australia, Europe and Asia, including at the National Design Centre in Federation Square, the Netherlands Architecture Institute and the Shenzhen-Hong Kong Bi-City Biennale of Urbanism & Architecture. http://www.sxwa.com.au/AWARDS http://www.sxwa.com.au/following/sxwa.com.au/AWARDS Tue, 13 Dec 2011 01:08:48 +0000 searle x waldron architecture 2448907 DESIGN AWARDS <img src="http://payload7.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2448907/AIDA-2012_CommercialCommendation_SXWA.jpg" width="300" height="114" width_o="300" height_o="114" src_o="http://payload7.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2448907/AIDA-2012_CommercialCommendation_SXWA_o.jpg" data-mid="17124890" border="0" align="left"/> COMMENDATION - PUBLIC DESIGN 2012 AUSTRALIAN INTERIOR DESIGN AWARDS 'Annexe - Art Gallery of Ballarat' <img src="http://payload7.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2448907/AIDA-2012_PublicCommendation_SXWA.jpg" width="300" height="114" width_o="300" height_o="114" src_o="http://payload7.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2448907/AIDA-2012_PublicCommendation_SXWA_o.jpg" data-mid="17124891" border="0" align="left"/> COMMENDATION - COLOUR IN COMMERCIAL DESIGN 2012 AUSTRALIAN INTERIOR DESIGN AWARDS 'Annexe - Art Gallery of Ballarat' <img src="http://payload7.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2448907/dulux_colour_awards-commendation.jpg" width="300" height="90" width_o="300" height_o="90" src_o="http://payload7.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2448907/dulux_colour_awards-commendation_o.jpg" data-mid="17124967" border="0" align="left"/> COMMENDATION - COMMERCIAL INTERIOR 2012 DULUX COLOUR AWARDS 'Annexe - Art Gallery of Ballarat' AUSTRALIAN INSTITUTE OF ARCHITECTS (VIC) AWARDS Shortlist - Public Architecture Alterations & Additions Shortlist - Small Project Architecture Shortlist - Colorbond Steel Award 'Annexe - Art Gallery of Ballarat' FINALIST - NATIONAL TRUST BALLARAT HERITAGE AWARDS New Work within a Heritage Area Award 'Annexe - Art Gallery of Ballarat' DESIGN COMPETITIONS FIRST PRIZE 'Mobility Centre & City Spatial Design' UN-Habitat Open International Competition 2008 JOINT FIRST PRIZE + INVITED 2ND STAGE FINALIST 'MoCAPE' - 'Museum Of Contemporary Art & Planning Exhibition' Open International & Invited Competition 2007 HONORABLE MENTION 'GBD Art District' Open International Competition 2007 SHORTLISTED FINALIST 'Green Water City Urban Park' Open International Competition 2009 http://www.sxwa.com.au/PUBLICATIONS http://www.sxwa.com.au/following/sxwa.com.au/PUBLICATIONS Tue, 13 Dec 2011 00:53:53 +0000 searle x waldron architecture 671702 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/671702/AA_AnnexeCover.jpg" width="334" height="440" width_o="334" height_o="440" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/671702/AA_AnnexeCover_o.jpg" data-mid="14112842" border="0" align="left"/> ARCHITECTURE AUSTRALIA 'Annexe - Art Gallery of Ballarat' Jan/Feb 2012. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/671702/Mark37_AprMay2012.jpg" width="160" height="216" width_o="160" height_o="216" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/671702/Mark37_AprMay2012_o.jpg" data-mid="17125277" border="0" align="left"/> MARK 'Annexe - Art Gallery of Ballarat' #37 April / May 2012 <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/671702/Artichoke_AwardsSpecial2012.jpg" width="160" height="206" width_o="160" height_o="206" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/671702/Artichoke_AwardsSpecial2012_o.jpg" data-mid="17125785" border="0" align="left"/> ARTICHOKE 'Annexe - Art Gallery of Ballarat' - Australian Interior Design Awards Special Issue.

Split House links two separate working and living spaces with these two unprogrammed interstitial spaces. These can be used as open places for casual conversation or formal entry. Also they can facilitate storm shutters to create an enclosed verandah against seasonal weather. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2270150/Split-House-SXWA-View2_700.jpg" width="700" height="448" width_o="700" height_o="448" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2270150/Split-House-SXWA-View2_o.jpg" data-mid="12491466" border="0" align="left"/> For the triennial the whole floor area can be used as an exhibition space. Multiple openings can create a variety of ways to configure spaces. The residence can sleep a number of persons in the loft and by reconfiguring the dining space with operable partitions.

The project is confined within the constraints of three jewellery display cases at the side entry of the building located off a busy cafe precinct of Centre Place. This constraint positions the artwork to engage with an active public audience of the laneway. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2269468/Majorca-House-SXWA-02.jpg" width="340" height="510" width_o="340" height_o="510" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2269468/Majorca-House-SXWA-02_o.jpg" data-mid="12491939" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2269468/Majorca-House-SXWA-03.jpg" width="340" height="510" width_o="340" height_o="510" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2269468/Majorca-House-SXWA-03_o.jpg" data-mid="12491942" border="0" align="left"/> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2269468/Majorca-House-SXWA-06.jpg" width="340" height="510" width_o="340" height_o="510" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2269468/Majorca-House-SXWA-06_o.jpg" data-mid="12492020" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2269468/Majorca-House-SXWA-04.jpg" width="340" height="510" width_o="340" height_o="510" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2269468/Majorca-House-SXWA-04_o.jpg" data-mid="12491944" border="0" align="left"/> The proposed facade expands and transforms the existing timber framed entrance doors down the lane varying the density, intensity and directionality beginning at a scale of 1:1. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2269468/Majorca-House-SXWA-05_700.jpg" width="700" height="467" width_o="700" height_o="467" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2269468/Majorca-House-SXWA-05_o.jpg" data-mid="12491948" border="0" align="left"/> The mutable screen can be read as an excursion across a range of architectural scales – shifting from window to facade screen to city grid. Reflective surfaces mirror movement and capture activity from the lane way at human scale. Graduated transitions shift to an exploration of a multistory facade. Further expansions re-orientate to a reading of the city grid in a final excursion of scale. <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2269468/Majorca-House-SXWA-08_700.jpg" width="700" height="467" width_o="700" height_o="467" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2269468/Majorca-House-SXWA-08_o.jpg" data-mid="12491967" border="0" align="left"/> <img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2269468/Majorca-House-SXWA-07.jpg" width="340" height="510" width_o="340" height_o="510" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2269468/Majorca-House-SXWA-07_o.jpg" data-mid="12491963" border="0" align="left"/><img src="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2269468/Majorca-House-SXWA-10.jpg" width="340" height="510" width_o="340" height_o="510" src_o="http://payload.cargocollective.com/1/1/55182/2269468/Majorca-House-SXWA-10_o.jpg" data-mid="12491974" border="0" align="left"/> Majorca is one of three sites run by Platform Artists Group – Melbourne's longest running artists-run initiative and public art project in the CBD.
