Designed in collaboration with Dinjama, First Building brings to life country, culture and community in a high-tech shared platform for manufacturing and research. Designed with whole-of-life sustainability and flexibility in mind, the building operates as a kit of parts able to be easily disassembled or adapted. A sculptural timber pavilion-style building, its curves are reflective of the water and fluidity of the surrounding landscape and the area’s Indigenous heritage as a place for women.
