Winter Architecture in collaboration with Zunica Interior Design

The Kinley Cricket Club is the renewal and conversion of an existing Cricket Club located in Lilydale, in Melbourne’s outer north-eastern suburbs. Winter Architecture, in collaboration with Zunica Design, set out to balance the uses of the building, formerly used as a cricket club, currently as a sales office and its future use as a community centre.  

The introduction of large openings, combined with an open floor plan also facilitates a flurry of natural light and a lovely cross venting breeze, whilst also allowing for future flexibility of programme. The design team looked to strengthen the existing buildings gesture towards the oval, by introducing a deep eave, enhancing the buildings aspect and accommodating a shaded outdoor space with protection to the new glazing. The key function of the interior space is to showcase the future development potential of the site, before itself becoming a focal point of community life within the new suburb.
