Mazda Australia’s new Melbourne headquarters reprises
Le Corbusier’s songline of the house as a machine for
living. Often pilloried for his frosted aesthetic, Corb’s
poetic insight that ‘architecture is the masterly, correct
and magnificent play of masses brought together in light’
remains a quintessential truth.
Cox Architects has its own deep design lineage and
history evident in projects such as at Mazda. Over the
decades Cox has rejoiced in the reduction of ‘stuff’
preferring thoughtful, structurally poetic, solutions.
