**Shaw Contract Design Awards – Global Winner**

Rezen + Templewell were tasked with creating a mining workplace that wasn’t traditionally masculine and that is representative of IGO’s values and people. The new fit-out includes spaces that are inclusive, warm, and welcoming – the antithesis of a traditional mining company fit out. The soft and tactile aesthetic creates a series of humanised spaces that are a pleasure to be in.

Embedded in the client’s values and operations is sustainability and working towards a clean energy future, therefore sustainability in this fit-out was incredibly important. This can be seen in the integration of biophilic elements for improved indoor air quality, and the selection of sustainable materials including 100% PVC-free, Carbon Neutral, Cradle to Cradle certified, and Declare certified carpet tiles from Shaw Contract.

The existing carpet from the original fit-out was reused and recycled through Shaw Contracts re[TURN] program which saved it from going to landfill. 

This project uses Shaw Contract Heddle carpet tiles, colour Argan, which are In Stock in Australia. Inspired by weaving communities in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco, Heddle Tile is a core foundational product that celebrates textile tactility.
