Walk along the leafy streets of Sydney’s inner city suburb of Chippendale and chances are you’ll stumble across . Designed by Wardle and Durbach Block Jaggers, the building has something of the Mad Hatter about it; a delightful composition of structure and creativity with a facade that has passers-by guessing at what could possibly lay inside.
For those who venture inside, this performance space and gallery is a magic box of architectural surprises, where expectations are inverted at every turn. From impossibly large doors, to delicately suspended light fixtures, and warped skylights, each element is a play on perception, creating a wholly unique and immersive experiential space.
Creating Bespoke Architecture
In architecture that defies the typical, having exceptional collaborators is imperative, and was a cornerstone of this monumental project. The technical team behind each of the aforementioned components of the building (), Tilt’s proven Industrial Design process was essential in the success of Phoenix Central Park and the realisation of a wholly unique architectural aesthetic.
While the Chippendale performance space may be an iconic in Sydney’s cultural circles, it is just one of Tilt’s ever growing portfolio of exceptional projects. Since 2013 when founder Tilt delivered the glinting heliostats at Sydney’s , Tilt has been dedicated to bridging the gap between architectural ambition and the built solution, supporting artists and product designers to fulfill their creative briefs. Working to the principles of creative collaboration, technical audacity and unparalleled craft, Tilt has become a go-to for custom architectural features and urban product designs that push creative and performance boundaries.
Introducing Tilt Product Design
After more than a decade of groundbreaking industrial design achievements, Tilt has taken the next step in its journey, expanding its consultancy to offer a new Product Design division. The division will support manufacturers to explore new design opportunities and develop new products, and will expand the breadth of Tilt’s studio to support a larger client base than ever before.
With projects like Phoenix Central Park and One Central Park in their portfolio, Tilt are uniquely positioned to tackle product design of all scales, applying the same technical rigour and refined process of large-scale architectural projects to every design brief. Their multi-disciplined team of industrial designers, mechanical engineers, mechatronic engineers, and architects can take designs from concept through to manufacturing readiness. Whether a one-off solution or an evolved product design, the consultancy is able to inform the product design process, providing an inhouse solution for clients that results in resolved product design briefs.
As architecture continues to evolve, and Australia increasingly cements its place as a global architecture leader, having consultancies and experts who can facilitate boundary-pushing design has never been more important. With a decade of bespoke industrial outcomes, the launch of Tilt’s Product Design division promises to raise the bar on architectural products, turning imagination into reality one concept at a time.
