Brief
Provide a recognisable building suitable for a head office that represents the brands ethos.
Challenges & Solutions
Due to its location, the challenge was to direct customers to the building. As the business was focused on heavy haulage and mining equipment, the entry foyer was inspired by the front end of their Mack trucks. It has become a clearly identifiable form that represents the business and the brand.
Materials

At Starbox Architecture - we humanise spaces.
This means creating spaces that promote social interaction, engagement and connection. We focus on spaces individually, collectively and how we experience spatial sequences.
We are driven by the brief, site location, local elements and human value. We believe that working collaboratively alongside clients and consultants with effective communication, ensures that the brief is ultimately addressed and realised. Our designs are individual, site specific and client driven with character, purpose and individuality that are intimately connected to the client.
We respond to the context of the site in a dynamic manner that is both relevant and appropriate to create a built form that is physically beautiful and enriches the lives of it’s occupants pragmatically and aesthetically. We are always conscious of passive environmentally sustainable design principles which include consideration of the material palette and the manner in which the building elements are connected to the surrounding environment. We are a multi-disciplinary practice that has delivered many projects of varying diversity, scale and complexity and has proven capability in both design and delivery.
