Text description provided by the architects. Through the combined effort of its new occupants; a construction company and an architecture studio; this 1970’s office block has been given a new life. Located in North Melbourne, and hidden under a layer of custard-coloured render for several decades, the Brutalist materiality was revealed after 8 weeks of painstaking labour chipping off the suffocating crust.
