A big day at Monash Caulfield today (Saturday) for the Victorian AIA Awards! Wishing Claire Scorpo, Director at Agius Scorpo Architects, all the best as she represents BVIA on BANK across multiple categories.
Developed by a talented female-led team, this project is a refined balance of heritage and modernity, sympathetic to its surroundings while embodying elegance, simplicity, and timeless glamour. The design enhances the striking gothic architecture, removing past alterations and creating an elegant backdrop that allows it to stand forward and proud in its historic glory.
Beyond aesthetics, the design also pays homage to the rich family history incorporating elements of the cobbler’s trade, leather, stitching, craftsmanship, and the spirit of hard work and family. It also reflects the legacy of Bank Street itself, once an Aboriginal meeting place, embedding layers of history into a landmark building that, in time, we believe will become heritage in its own right!
