Apologies for a monumental mistake. CORRECTION: I meant Sam Crawford instead of Sam Marshall for the North Bondi Amenities.
I went Sydney last week and it's truly a city with beautiful buildings. My faves were the UTS buildings and in general the Ultimo/Central Park area, a theatre called Phoenix Central Park, and of course The icon herself, Sydney Opera House
Wait you got inside Phoenix??
So nice to hear others fan boy our great buildings and architects. Sounded just like me boring my kids senseless with tours around Sydney as they grew up. Love ya work
Love this little slice of Sydney Tour for those who missed out. Camerawork was stunning and made me fall in love with the little details of each building. It's not the same as being there in person but it's certainly as close as it can get.
Yes. Especially now you know what goes on in our tours which is beyond just being at the buildings.
2023, guys
Come to Castlecrag! I'm lucky enough to live here and walk past all the Burley-Griffin buildings everyday.
Lucky you!!
There is just so much to like about Sydney. You certainly convinced me to go back just because of the Prince Albert pool upgrade. 🤣
Rule 82 sounds good! Always should have room for Serendipity!
That curve on the smart design studio!
Green Square Library has been on the list too and the best part was you finished on one of my favourite projects in Sydney - Paddinton Square Gardens.
Congrats guys, you've managed to outdo yourself and convince me Sydney (and Canberra) need to be on the list when I come home.
Have you been to Ballast Point Park? This is one of my favourite places in Sydney.
No I haven’t though I have seen it on the ferry on the way to Cockatoo Island. Sounds like I need to go check it out
@@Archimarathon it's definitely worth a visit. The Ferry ride there is worth it.
CHROFI !!!
Ballast Point Park's great! I love it too! Sydney's blessed with some great parks!
Such a tease this episode!
2022 more Archimarathon tours 🙌
Will see. Hoping some international ones
That Punchbowl Mosque looks amazing!
It is amazing
As a fan of John Andrews, I have a soft spot for 388 George Street. The Masonic Centre on Goulburn Street is quite unique, and the Sirius Building is wonderful.
Are you planning to come back to Canberra to tour more places? The High Court here in Canberra is cooler than the Opera House.
I like the High Court but I cannot agree with your comment about it better than the Opera House, sorry. Yes I am hoping to come back to Canberra at some point next year.
The Masonic Centre is so good!
Best building in the world!!!!
One of your best films. Really highlights the beautiful work in Sydney. My love of the Oprah House grows each time I see it.
Wow, thank you. Big call!. Also Oprah will be proud 😂
Small House in Surry Hills is another good'n! It's privately owned though, so mightn't be the best for tours. But what's interesting about it is that it was just a small car lot in a back alley.
Ahh yes the one by Dominic Alvaro. Yes it’s not much to see on the outside.
Walked past Andrew Maynard with a group of followers the other day and I was wondering if it was Archimarathon. Now I know! Glad to see episodes about Sydney. Another place worth checking is the suburb Castlecrag designed by Walter Burley Griffin and Marion Mahony Griffin - 'I want Castlecrag to be built so that each individual can feel the whole landscape is his. No fences, no boundaries, no red roofs to spoil the Australian landscape: these are some of the features that will distinguish Castlecrag.'
Oh was that YOU who approached us??
@@Archimarathon Nope, I only walked past Andrew when crossing the road near the UTS building in the morning.
And you didn’t see me?
@@Archimarathon Yes, didn't see you. That's why I was wondering if it is Archimarathon. Were you actually there or did I miss you somehow haha.
Ahh yes I was finishing up thanking the people at the church and getting some b rolls. Impatient Maynard decided to move ahead
Thanks so much. Sydney is on my bucket list and your video moves it up a couple rungs. I’m going to deconstruct and explore a lot of the projects individually
Where are you from?
Legend! It’s a shame that I couldn't go to some of those places due to lockdown when I was living in Sydney. Miss those places! Please come to Tasmania for another marathon🤙
Tasmania is tough as a lot of the good stuff are private houses and/or in far away places.
Probably 3XN's Fish Market when it's ready. Also, TZG's Carriageworks, the Manuelle Gautrand designed civic building in Parramatta, BVN's Australian Plantbank at Mount Annan and Durbach Block Jaggers' Roslyn Street just to name a few.
Beautiful! Such an amazing video and very well filmed! As many others said, the intro videos are awesome!
Thanks heaps for letting us see some snippets of what I´m sure it´ll be many great episodes.
Being and experiencing a building is the best way to understand and learn architecture.
A big yes to leaving space for serendipity!
I´m so looking forward to the Punchbowl Mosque episode
Only 2 or 3 episodes filmed for Sydney and no Punchbowl Mosque episode.
@@Archimarathon all good! I’m sure any of those buildings would be a great episode
RULE#2 DOUBLE TAP
Limber Up. Don’t be a hero.
Nice I got second like on this and first comment. Cheers Kev and Andrew. That mosque is amazing. The point on serendipity is right on. 🎤
Thanks Kurt. Yes it’s very special. Although it is now officially open 5 times a day for prayers, it is not easy to visit without prior booking.
That building def moves like Jagger.
lol
Thanks for the vid. Rose Seidler House in the northern suburbs is a historic gem in Australian architecture....well worth your focus. Another small dwelling which has inspired me is Israel House in Claireville by Stutchbury, its a great expression of Sydney
Yes Rose Seidler House used to be on the tour but it does take up a bit of time in the tour to go there. I have swapped it with Green Square area this year.
I AM JUST THINKING THAT WHAT AN AMAZING, GREAT EXPERIENCE WOULD BE LIKE WORKING IN ARCHIMARATHON STUDIO
How did I miss this
Yes. How??
5:47 The three of them are talking, but one is alienated. take care of him!
Love the video Kevin! Would love to join you guys one day!!
Looks fantastic! I’m sad not to have been able to make this tour but hoping to join another of your Sydney tours soon (or anywhere else for that matter). I see you included the Readers Digest building in Surry Hills which I happened to stumble across today having previously only seen photos of it. And good to see you featured some of the brilliant new local libraries too.
Yes. Yet to meet you. Next time.
Please do a video on the Punchbowl Mosque!
Didn’t have permission but hoping to gain permission in the future
@@Archimarathon that would be great! Can't wait for the other Sydney vids!
We can do a vid Kev. Let’s just voice over the footage we have.
No I respect the wishes of the community which is not to make an episode without permission. Next time hopefully
I would love to travel with you all 🤩 (being dreamy) such interesting topics!!
I found this channel after my architecture grad school but no worries... never too late amiright!
I love your videos! I love how you point out the unique humanist details in the architecture especially so in work of AMA and mid-century architects you have shown. What are your camera(s) of choice for documentation?
Thanks. Using a DJI Osmo Action for us talking and the “cinematic” were iPhone 11 Pro Max handheld
You almost make Sydney sound like a nice place!
Almost!
I loved the Canberra series. Are there plans for a 2022 Sydney series looking at some of these buildings in more detail or is this a one off highlight reel?
We have about 2 or 3 episodes of buildings in Sydney
@@Archimarathon Ooo!
Definitely keen for the next Sydney tour! Also City of Sydney Council currently jackhammering outside my bedroom window so the jury's out on that one... There are surely a lot of places in Sydney that are ripe for a tour... would love Kev's thoughts on Arc on Clarence Street by Koichi Takada and the JPW extension to the War Memorial in Hyde Park is another potential for the list!
We walked past Arc. Hugely disappointing in real life tbh
@@Archimarathon I love the bricks but that's just because I love bricks generally. And yeah, mostly I want to hear your "critique" in person for the lols
I'm with Lachlan, I just love the intro videos, too. I admire so much your b roll videos. How do you do them? Are they filmed at that speed on site or do you slow them down while editing?
Thanks. Slowed down or speeded up during editing.
i love u, guys
Thank you.
Love this! When you coming to London?
Actually I have been to UK for a long long time
@@Archimarathon would love to show you around if you do come! I’m an architect working for a local authority as a developer.
Thanks for the offer.
It says a lot about grey bureaucratic men in suits if Utzon’s Opera house is the best in the world- as it of was of course changed by them half-way through, making significant alterations from his original design. It was the reason he left of course and never to return. 😪
13:18 is this a prototype or were the arches built offsite 👀👀?
I found it in their Instagram feed. I am pretty sure it’s prototype built offsite
@@Archimarathon incredible. Gotta have a dig around to learn about how the roof and drainage work. Cheers.
2 friends 1 interest
The Sydney Opera House is right on so many levels but it can’t be the best building in world because it has a concrete frame structure and not a shell structure (I speak under correction?) and because the concept is so shell-related I think it’s too big of a missed opportunity to allow it to occupy number 1 😁
I love your videos! I love how you point out the unique humanist details in the architecture especially so in work of AMA and mid-century architects you have shown. What are your camera(s) of choice for documentation?
Thanks. Using a DJI Osmo Action for us talking and the “cinematic” were iPhone 11 Pro Max handheld
Thanks for your reply! I appreciate the honesty of using simple tools to shoot your video. It really supports your approach to architecture. It’s also inspires me to get filming!
