Think Brick Awards

MCR is proud to announce The Infinity Centre as the joint winner of the Horbury Hunt Award in the Commercial Category.

Judges commented “Great education buildings, like the Infinity Centre, have the potential to shape future generations by inspiring students to think about the built environment. Here a striking brick facade undulates in both plan and elevation with a hovering mass that defies gravity. The innovative use of brick transforms ideas about the material’s modularity and in the process challenges perceptions of what’s possible with brick.”

Monaco House in Sydney Morning Herald

Monaco House Featured in the Sydney Morning Herald, APRIL 24-25, 2010

“McBride Charles Ryan’s Monaco House seems to erupt out of its starched and narrow lane just metres from the Melbourne Club, bubbling convexly above street level and concavely at it, punching a crumpled cave of conviviality into the street wall.”
