MPavilion2019 designed by revered architect Glenn Murcutt is a minimalist, climate-responsive, open-plan space, which catered effortlessly to MPavilion’s diverse and inclusive program of 2500+ free cultural events attended by 149,000+ visitors. Inspired by the memory of a light aircraft’s wing as shelter, MPavilion2019 has steel columns supporting wing-like trusses covered in luminous Ceconite aircraft fabric – never before used in construction. Concealed LED lighting illuminates the fabric ceiling, emitting a lantern-like glow; a gesture to its delicate footprint, and the transient nature of the interactions within. MPavilion2019’s seating was created by prominent designer Chris Connell with furniture company grazia&co. It’s influenced in form by the subtle curvature of the roof canopy. Steel fabricated tubes form the MStool’s frame, with perforated steel skin moulded overtop. The ‘primer red’ creates a ceremonious contrast to the all-white MPavilion, and symbolises Australia’s earth. MPavilion2019’s uniforms were conceived by the Social Studio, a not-for-profit working with refugee youth. The design was inspired by the utilitarianism of the boilersuit and made from a Japanese cotton/linen blend with a technical resilient finish. The colour accents the botanical setting of MPavilion. Multifunctional/durable bags designed by Beci Orpin, and made from bright materials up-cycled from hardware stores, complete the outfit.
