PROJECT REQUIREMENTS
Supporting the project
Working within a heritage redevelopment involves coordinating new architectural elements with existing fabric and the project’s design intent. Glass and metal balustrades provide distinct approaches for circulation spaces and stairs.
Key considerations for project teams
- Interfaces with existing heritage fabric
- Feature stair and circulation design
- Coordination of custom glass and metal elements

KOHL CAPABILITIES
Considered from installation to handover
Glass and metal balustrades meet existing fabric and circulation routes in a heritage setting. We consider site access, interfaces and the programme when planning work with project teams.
Illustrative handover activities
OUR APPROACH
Working with heritage fabric
Our team can discuss coordination, product protection and the details needed to prepare the relevant package for handover.
Existing fabric interfacesReview interfaces, adjacent finishes and access.
Feature stair and balustradesCoordinate product selection and sequencing with the project team.
Final detailsConsider protection, presentation and handover documentation.
For suitable systems, factory-prepared components can reduce some on-site fabrication. The approach depends on the system and project conditions.
Project recognition
The Locomotive Workshop received 2023 NSW Architecture Awards commendations for Commercial Architecture and Heritage. These commendations recognise the project and design team.
