Underground Car Park, University of Melbourne, Parkville. C.1971
By master planner Bryce Mortlock, structural engineer JLvander Molenand landscape architect Rayment and Stones
The lateral space of this 1971 underground car park has been elevated aesthetically and structurally by its barrel-vaulted ceiling. Curved columns support the ceiling, forming wide spaces framed by arches, which, along with the unadorned concrete surfaces, give it a monastic feel.
