Details
ShapeShift was engaged to deliver the feature lobby elements using its advanced ShapeShell™ RT system. Our role encompassed the complete design, engineering, manufacture, and supply of the prefabricated panels, ensuring both the architectural vision and practical buildability were achieved. Working from the architect’s 3D model, we developed detailed shop drawings and engineered the system to Australian standards, providing certification and quality assurance throughout. Using our large-format 5-axis CNC machines, each panel was tooled and fabricated with high dimensional accuracy, then coated in a bespoke cementitious Berkshire White finish.
To guarantee performance, every component was produced under ISO 9001 quality systems and verified with 3D scanning for precise fit on-site. The panels were supplied as lightweight, modular units, carefully packed into 40ft high cube containers for ease of transport and efficient handling on arrival. Importantly, our scope was supply only, with installation, bracketry, and site-based works managed by others. This approach enabled ShapeShift to focus on delivering a high-quality, durable, and visually striking lobby feature, while providing the builder with a streamlined prefabricated solution that reduced time, cost, and risk on-site
