High Cube Cafe - Commercial Development // Mudgee NSW

High Cube Cafe occupies a gently sloping site at the border of the industrial area in Mudgee. The development embraces its industrial context and rather than opt for a singular built form, the program is divided into 6 individual shipping containers that stack together to provide a sense of enclosure and protection from the main road while embracing the Northern aspect. The project's composition reinforces the edge of the industrial zone while allowing permeability in the program to respond to the site conditions and program
