Moreau Kusunoki & Genton to design Powerhouse Precinct at Parramatta in Sydney
Out of six top-notch finalists for the Powerhouse Precinct at Parramatta competition, the jury unanimously decided on the team led by Moreau Kusunoki and their Australian collaborator Genton as the winner. The Powerhouse Parramatta project will transform and renew the Museum of Applied Arts & Sciences, one of Australia’s oldest and most significant cultural institutions, into a central arts and cultural district.
The team won the jury's favor with their multi-faceted design concept, which envisions the Powerhouse Parramatta as “a hyper-platform, a building with limitless potential which continuously evolves. The built form treads lightly on the site, creating a porous ground plane. The architecture connects the city with the river, providing generous public space and creating an open 24-hour precinct that engages locals and visitors,” Moreau Kusunoki said. The Paris-based practice made headlines for winning the Guggenheim Helsinki competition in 2015.
