架构师提供的文本描述。20世纪20年代的包装棚是唯一的建筑，从曾经繁荣的雀巢炼乳厂-一个重要的中心，图古拉瓦的经济和社会生活，直到该厂在1951年被烧毁。艺术画廊和工作室项目的启动始于2012年，在社区的基层推动下开始。2015年12月的开幕展览有31名当地艺术家和图古拉瓦及区历史小组的一次展览，将该建筑定位为该地区持续文化生活的催化剂。

Text description provided by the architects. The 1920s packing shed is the only building remaining from the once prosperous Nestle condensed milk factory—an important centre of Toogoolawah’s economic and social life until the factory was destroyed by fire in 1951. The inception of the art gallery and workshop project began in 2012 with a grass -roots push from the community. The opening exhibition in December 2015 featured 31 local artists and a display by the Toogoolawah and Districts History Group, positioning the building as a catalyst for the ongoing cultural life of the region.

从根本上说，设计的目的是为了保护建筑及其发现的建筑质量，而不是试图将其恢复到原来的状态。为了安装隔热材料，拆除了风雨板，在现有屋顶上铺了一个隔热结构外壳，使暴露的屋顶铁皮、污迹斑驳的混凝土地板和墙壁内部基本保持不变。由于白蚁的破坏，建筑物西部三分之一的倒塌提供了一个机会重新组合这一高地，颠覆了山墙的对称性，并与东部入口形成了对比。

Fundamentally, the design was conceived to preserve the building and its architectural qualities  as found, rather than attempting to restore it to an original condition. Weatherboards were removed to install insulation, and an insulated structural skin was laid over the existing roof, leaving the interior of exposed roofing iron, stained concrete floor and walls, largely unchanged. The collapse of the western third of the building due to termite damage provided an opportunity to re -compose this elevation, subverting the symmetry of the gable, and creating a contrast to the eastern entry.

新的西端也发挥了重要的结构作用，包含了便利设施，并掩盖了空调设备的位置在现有的建筑部分。在现存的建筑物中，风向板被涂成原来的红色氧化物颜色。新的墙壁与更深红色的区别，并补充了粉红，红色和棕色的细节元素的组合。

The new western end also plays an important structural role, contains the amenities, and disguises the location of the airconditioning plant within the existing building section. Where the existing building remained, the weatherboards were painted in their original red oxide colour. New walls are differentiated with a darker red and complemented with a combination of pinks, reds and browns for detail elements.

关闭，这个复杂的调色板产生了一个充满活力的效果，并使建筑物的历史可读性。从远处看，该项目恢复原来的建筑形式，并被认为是一个简单的红色棚屋景观。虽然主要作为一个艺术画廊，内部是计划灵活和各种同时使用。该设计还利用了现有的室外露台(其他工厂建筑的残余)，扩大了建筑物的公共活动和私人功能的潜力。新的具体元素，提供防火出口和外观，双重作为阶段，允许这些外部空间用于性能。

Close up, this complex palette produces a vibrant effect, and makes the building’s history legible. From afar, the project reinstates the original building form, and is perceived as a simple red shed in the landscape. While primarily used as an art gallery, the interior is planned for flexibility and various concurrent uses. The design also takes advantage of the existing outdoor terraces (remnants of other factory buildings) that broaden the building’s potential for public events and private functions. New concrete elements that provide fire egress and outlook, double as stages, allowing these external spaces to be utilised for performance.
