Orygen’s purpose:
“Working with young people, our partners and one another, we’re redefining what’s possible in global youth mental health research, policy, education and clinical care.”
-
Inspired by the surrounding nature of Parkville, Victoria, Orygen desired to transform this space into a mental wellness center. The goal was to foster research, promote education, and provide a serene environment for consultation sessions.

TM Lighting provided 1400lm low-energy consumption Micro Zylinder lights in both black and white. These fixtures were installed to enhance accent lighting in the entry and public foyer areas, strategically placed within the ‘branches’ of the architectural timbers.
TM Lighting also provided the Nordic's NLP 3-Circuit Standard Track System to follow the contours of the architectural design. Flexible elbow track accessories were included to accommodate the acute angles, mirroring the ceiling's flow.
