Broken Camp has won the Award for Small Project Architecture at the 2021 NSW Architecture Awards.
Thank you to the awards jury, the NSW Chapter of the Australian Institute of Architects and everyone involved with running the awards this year. We are very grateful to see our work recognised with this award.
Citation from the 2021 Awards Jury:
“Settled into rolling pastures on the far North Coast, Broken Camp is a beautiful piece of joinery in the landscape, providing a gathering and celebration space for the owners in a favourite location long used for picnics. Taking advantage of shade from existing trees and a gentle slope to optimise functionality, Broken Camp is an outdoor kitchen and dining space which both nestles into and floats above the landscape.
The modest elemental form is enhanced by attention to detail in this finely crafted structure. A long timber platform is punctuated by a tent-like folded steel shelter, which also evokes the rusting rural shed typology. A steel shrouded wood-fired oven is the counterpoint to an open fire pit, located at each end of the slim platform, linking but separating the two.”
Special thanks go to our clients and the team from Twil Constructions.
