Lacoste + Stevenson Architects
Greystanes Park East, New South Wales The Recall Storage Facility is designed to contain six million A3 cardboard archive boxes, storage of which depends on the barcode to keep track of their location. So when Lacoste + Stevenson Architects began designing the Recall Storage Facility, the symbolic resonance of barcoding – signifying identification and individualisation, which forms a sound basis for any design principle – was too perfect to overlook |

PTW Architects
Millers Point, Sydney Contemporary urban development in rich historical and cultural spaces in Sydney is a sensitive and potentially nightmarish venture; our spatial and aesthetic connection with heritage precincts is a cardinal manifestation of our unique sense of identity. PTW Architects, with their usual flair, strength and integrity, illustrate with 30 The Bond, at 30-34 Hickson Rd, Millers Point, just how seamlessly such a venture can be achieved. |

Asymptote Architecture's latest projects - the Penang Global City Centre in Malaysia, the World Business Centre Busan in South Korea, and a luxury residential tower in the United Arab Emirates - are different to their past virtual work. These projects will be built, constructed from real materials in the real world.

Beijing
Paul Andreu's elliptical National Grand Theatre was a project which seemed ready to join other unbuilt Chinese works by Zaha Hadid, Toyo Ito, and other noted architects; but today stands tall near Beijing's Forbidden Palace, having weathered the PR storm.

Ashton Raggatt McDougall
Melbourne, VIC Melbourne Central was never the city’s main train station, nor was it an architectural masterpiece, or even a successful retail venture. A recent facelift, however, has taken on the challenge of rewriting past shortcomings; rejuvinating the complex much like a Hollywood star reinvents a flagging career with a new ‘image’ and a few well-chosen film and media appearances. |

The Great Indoors Awards aspire to shape their discipline. At once promotion and pedagogy, they aim to combat a certain listlessness in interior design, a sense that the discipline is not yet "mature" and that its glamour and influence fall short of the neighbouring disciplines of architecture and product design.
