Urban art project is creating some thunder down under. The Australian art collective has just transformed an unsightly parking garage in Brisbane into “Landlines,” an artwork by Jennifer Marchant constructed of 549 aluminum panels.
The project began when hometown architects Nettleton Tribe, enlisted to add 13 floors of office space to the 30 year old, nine-story garage, brought in UAP and Marchant to create visual character at the street level. They delivered by wrapping the structure in 4-by-11 foot aluminum panels that naturally ventilate the sub-tropical garage, reducing the buildings carbon emissions to the tune of over $900,000 in savings for the client over the use of a mechanical ventilation system.
