By Maddison Architects
Little Ludlow takes reference from The Ludlow Formation, of the previous year for the same client, into how to deal with the banality of generic conditions, interpret place/location, and a desire to react to the "sheen" of the usual airport retail spaces. The tenancy engages with the existing Terminal layout by breaking away elements of existing barriers, asserting presence through designed signage and "statement" feature walls. Customers are drawn through the tenancy around the elongated, multi-directional bar structures and crafted intimate spaces.
The immense verticality of the space is mediated by using delicately engineered stepping steel canopies, oversized cylindrical graphic/signage drums and an 8m high tiled and recycled timber clad feature which counterbalances the adjacent tenancy built forms.
Peter Maddison is a multi award-winning architect and Director of Maddison Architects, a practice he started in 1989.
We are an A+ member of the Australian Institute of Architects. Dozens of industry awards and strong media coverage has followed our practice because of the relevant, contemporary nature of the work we produce. We have delivered over 200 projects of great diversity in scale. The work undertaken has been predominantly hospitality, commercial, educational or residential in nature. Our hospitality projects have distinguished the practice, because of their commercial viability and profile. We are proud to have many of our clients return for ongoing or new projects. This is due to their satisfaction with the service we provide and the healthy relationship nurtured.
A unique aspect of Maddison Architects is our ability to integrate a multi-disciplined approach to all of our projects, drawing on strong in-house resources involving architecture, interior and landscape architecture. We are a collaborative practice, and embrace the opportunity to engage with other experts in branding, identity, art installations, storytelling - all of which contribute to building outcomes with more meaning.
