MPavilion

PRESENTED BY MELBOURNE FESTIVAL AND NAOMI MILGROM FOUNDATION

COMMISSIONED BY NAOMI MILGROM FOUNDATION
DESIGNED BY SEAN GODSELL ARCHITECTS

This year, Melbourne Festival joins with the Naomi Milgrom Foundation to introduce a vibrant new feature to Melbourne’s skyline. 

MPavilion is a unique collision of architectural design, art and performance space: an intriguing new structure to serve as a meeting place, a spontaneous detour, a destination or a starting point.

MPavilion is an ongoing project, featuring a new design by a different architect each year. The 2014 iteration comes from acclaimed Melbourne architect Sean Godsell, the brains behind the award-winning RMIT Design Hub. Inspired by Australia’s iconic outback sheds and verandas, the structure responds to sunlight – unfolding each morning like a flower welcoming the people of Melbourne.

Playing host to an engaging program of free performances and talks, MPavilion promises to be a wondrous, ephemeral addition to our city’s landscape.

MPavilion is supported by City of Melbourne, the Victorian State Government and the Australia Council.
