Hayball

The July issue of Architecture Australia brings together pioneering projects and experts in social value within built environments, featuring Hayball’s CRT+YRD Social Value Pilot Study, along with an interview with Eilish Barry on the importance of measuring social value. The discussion piece ‘Architects behaving differently’ by Eloise Atkinson (Chair of the Brisbane Housing Company) features the CRT+YRD study as a measurable example of how architecture can affect the wider community and prioritise resident wellbeing. In the conversational article ‘Roundtable: Tools for measuring social value,' Hayball’s Eilish Barry joins Angelique Edmonds, Nick Juniper, Brett Pollard, and Simon Faivel to discuss the importance of tracking social value progress, authentic integrity in design, incentives for investment, and advocacy from architects.

An exciting milestone has been announced for the Barak Beacon, Port Melbourne site, a part of the Ground Lease Model 2 program. We are proud to be working alongside Icon, Studio Bright, GLAS Landscape Architects and Little Rocket to deliver 408 high-quality, sustainable homes for Homes Victoria partners including Building Communities, Tetris Capital and Community Housing Ltd.

"A willingness to listen is fundamental to creating architecture for people," says Graham Legerton, Principal at Hayball, in an Architecture & Design (Australia) feature on the Legacy Brisbane project. [link in the comments] "We consider how people from all walks of life can enrich a project, where their values, perspectives, and social and cultural contributions play a crucial role in the design journey. This facility will serve multiple generations, enriched by Legacy’s DNA and the exceptional work of their team." Legacy Brisbane is an innovative community facility for Australian Defence Force veterans and their families. Situated in a parkland setting, Legacy House will offer a new model of care to connect the clinical services of Greenslopes Private Hospital, Keith Payne Mental Health Unit and Gallipoli Medical Research with the veteran and family social and support services of Legacy, RSL Queensland, Mates4Mates and Open Arms. #brisbanearchitecture #communityarchitecture Hayball, Gripfast Consulting, Legacy Brisbane, Urbis Town planning, ADP Consulting Pty Ltd, AshurTM Bennett + Bennett, Environmental Sciences, JMAC Group, WT (Australia), CU Group, TTM, Construction Unity Group, LAD.

Across Hayball’s portfolio of education projects, there’s a discernible shift in the purpose, design and use of schools’ performing arts centres. Senior Associate Owen West, along with Principal David Tweedie and Associate Emma Parkinson, recently contributed to an Architecture & Design (Australia) feature discussing a series of our recent performing arts projects and explored their evolving role in stimulating culture, community, and learning.   The article observes that a long-held definition of the performing arts as music, dance, and drama has recently been expanded to incorporate science, physical education, media, and technology; the new collision of disciplines from across the curriculum suggests a fresh identity for this particular building type that’s primed to communicate a school’s values and aspirations.

We were thrilled to attend the Australian Institute of Architects NSW Architecture Awards gala and accept a Commendation in the Educational Architecture category for Hilltops Young High School Library. The project on Wiradjuri Country demonstrates a sensitive balancing of the Aboriginal, European, and Chinese histories that were overlaid on site. Encouraging lifelong learning, the facility is notable for its shared use by school and town communities. Sincere thanks to jury members Thierry Lacoste (Chair), Martina Nováková, and Hannah Bolitho, along with category sponsor, Bondor Insulated Panels.

How is a sense of community vital in modern housing? Hayball’s Vinh N. shared his expert insights recently with Brisbane masthead the Courier Mail, in a feature article discussing the fast-evolving landscape of Queensland’s multi-residential housing. Recalling the residential neighbourhoods of his youth and the community spirit they encouraged, Vinh spoke about the State’s unique lifestyle and climate, and prompted us to consider how best we ‘honour and define a new approach to the multi-residential built environment in Queensland that remains archetypal of the State.’ Read the article here: https://lnkd.in/gfcqCZmm Photography: West Village, a medium-rise residential development in Brisbane’s West End, masterplan and residential architecture by Hayball; The Eaves, West Village by bureau^proberts and RPS landscape architects.

Hayball’s architectural vision for The Canopy stems from the site's heritage as a Dunlop tyre factory, favouring materials like brick, metal and glass.  A considered external material selection bridges the gap between The Canopy's industrial past and its enduring heritage as a place of nature that once sat between woodlands and wetlands. The link with nature is celebrated also by having the development up on the newly proposed Johnson Street public park, or the 'biophilic front door': a lush green central park with motifs honouring the Bunurong people. The park acts as an important link in the ribbon of open space throughout the precinct, offering walking and cycling pathways and inviting places to rest and play.
