“For Daniels, [NADAAA] floats an origami-like roof over a 110-foot-wide column-free room to create floodlit studio and social spaces below. A new circulation spine attempts to better link the building, which is set on a traffic roundabout, into the city.”

Tanderrum Featured in Architectural Record

Posted on August 18th, 2017 by Jalisa Joyner

Posted under: _Tanderrum Bridge, Press

Tanderrum has been featured in Architectural Record! Read more about it HERE.

“The bridge itself is an elegant thing: separating its skin from its structure—steel box girders and concrete pylons—enabled the architects to create a slender profile. The rhythmic filigree of painted tubular steel balustrading that wraps the underside of the bridge enhances this, extending upward periodically to create points of illumination.”

The Daniels Building is featured in Metropolis Magazine’s July/August print issue written by Alex Bozikovic.

“The question was, how do you not mimic the existing building, but speak to it in a corresponding way?” says Nader Tehrani of NADAAA. They found an answer: a new wing that shows, with forms that are spiky and radically contemporary, how design can deal with the past and also change the city.”

Tanderrum Bridge wins the Melbourne Prize

Posted on July 1st, 2017 by Nicole Sakr

Posted under: _Tanderrum Bridge, Awards

Tanderrum Bridge has won the coveted Melbourne Prize at the Victorian AIA 2017 Awards for its “evocative and memorable contribution to Melbourne’s cultural and urban landscape”.

“The lightweight industrial quality of steel trussed railway structures and branches of the park’s elm trees influenced the character of the bridge. The result is a filigree character that provides the ‘framework for a journey’ between two starkly different landscapes.”

A big thank you to our collaborators John Wardle Architects, Oculus and Buro North!
