The Orange Regional Museum, designed by Crone Architects with urban domain by Urbis, reorganises a city block with a combined landscape, architectural and urban solution. A new cultural precinct is created by integrating a new structure into an existing site alongside the public library and art gallery.
The Museum precinct includes a new civic square, event space and cafe. Seating stairs create an amphitheatre and run all the way up to a lush green roof, where visitors can relax on the lawn and enjoy a view across Orange.
Simple Slim Bollards from Street Furniture Australia protect the perimeter of the new public space, finished in Palladium Silver in keeping with the palette of minimal colour and materials.
“The resolution of the complex, angular geometry was critical for a building with a minimal material palette of concrete, glazing, metal panels and grass and a continuous concrete‐edge beam that wraps the entire facade, accentuating the form,” says Crone.
Two of the bollards are removable to allow permeable access for the custodian.
The project has won multiple design awards:
- 2017 Sulman Medal for Public Architecture, NSW Architecture Awards.
- NSW Premier’s Prize, 2017 NSW Architectural Awards.
- Australia Award for Urban Design, Delivered Outcome – Small Scale, 2017 Australian Urban Design Awards.
The green roof is enjoyed by picnickers and school groups.
