Interpreting the metaphor of land and minerals through tactile design. Melbourne HQ Office, crafted by Woods Bagot for Rio Tinto, redefines the corporate workspace as a immersive blend of office and museum. Completed in 2023 at 120 Collins St, this 850㎡ space abandons conventional sobriety, weaving the company’s mining heritage, Indigenous connections, and functional needs into a textured narrative that engages all senses, turning work into a journey of discovery.

以触觉设计诠释土地与矿产的隐喻。墨尔本总部办公室由伍兹贝格建筑事务所为力拓集团打造，将办公空间重新定义为兼具办公与博物馆功能的沉浸式场所。这座 2023 年落成于柯林斯街 120 号的 850 平方米空间，摒弃了传统企业的沉闷感，将公司的采矿遗产、原住民联结与功能需求编织成富有肌理的叙事，调动所有感官，让工作成为一场探索之旅。

The arrival space serves as the opening chapter of this spatial story, where materials evoke the raw beauty of Country. Rendered concrete walls mirror bauxite’s reddish-brown texture, while hand-sanded steel plinths bear the weight of repurposed 110kg drill heads from Western Australian mines. For visitors, running a hand over the rough concrete or gazing at the industrial relics isn’t just sensory—its a tangible link to Rio Tinto’s history, merging education with emotional resonance as Indigenous perspectives on land are subtly woven into the finishes.

入口空间是这场空间叙事的开篇，各类材质勾勒出土地的原始之美。抹灰混凝土墙复刻了铝土矿的红棕肌理，手工打磨的钢基座上陈列着来自西澳大利亚废弃矿区、重达 110 公斤的翻新钻头。对访客而言，触摸粗糙的混凝土表面或凝视这些工业遗迹，不仅是感官体验，更是与力拓历史的切实联结 —— 原住民的土地视角巧妙融入饰面设计，让知识传递与情感共鸣相得益彰。

Suspended from the cavernous ceiling, the copper wire mesh installation is a sculptural masterpiece that breathes life into the space. Hand-manipulated to form undulating peaks and ravines, this semi-translucent fabric embodies Rio Tinto’s core mineral while metaphorically mapping the Australian landscape. As light filters through, it casts shifting shadows that dance across the floor, creating a dynamic, tactile atmosphere. For employees, this daily interaction with the artwork fosters a sense of connection to the land and the company’s purpose, turning a corporate setting into a place of wonder.

悬挂在开阔天花板上的铜线网装置，是赋予空间生命力的雕塑杰作。经手工塑形而成的起伏峰谷，让这片半透明织物既体现了力拓的核心矿产，又隐喻性地勾勒出澳大利亚地貌。光线穿透时，地面上的光影随之流动，营造出动态而富触觉感的氛围。对员工而言，与这件艺术品的日常互动，加深了他们与土地及公司使命的联结，让办公场所蜕变为充满惊喜的空间。

Meeting rooms and work zones continue the narrative through color and privacy design. Studio Ongarato’s glass door decals, etched with linear abstractions of rock strata, balance transparency with seclusion. The graduating color palette—from warm ochres at the entry to calming blues and greens deeper in the space—guides movement while reflecting mineral oxidation processes. These darker tones create focused, serene work areas, a thoughtful response to post-COVID needs, where employees feel drawn to the office by its soft, inviting interior that balances productivity with comfort.

会议室与工作区通过色彩与隐私设计延续叙事脉络。奥加拉托工作室设计的玻璃门贴花，以岩石地层的线性抽象图案平衡了通透与私密。从入口处的暖赭石色，到空间深处舒缓的蓝绿色，渐变色调既引导动线，又映射了矿物氧化过程。这些深色系营造出专注宁静的工作氛围，精准回应后疫情时代的需求 —— 柔和宜人的室内设计让员工甘愿走出家门，在高效与舒适间找到平衡。

Bespoke details like the monolithic stone reception desk and copper oxide partition curtain elevate the space’s depth. The reception desk, with its individually honed, leathered, and sandblasted faces, pays homage to raw rock, while the iridescent curtain shifts from orange to purple as light moves, embodying metallic transformation. Every element—from interactive drill head displays to striated design references—weaves Rio Tinto’s values of safety, knowledge sharing, and cultural respect into the fabric of the workspace. This isn’t just an office; it’s a living museum that honors the past, embraces the present, and inspires connection.

定制化细节（如整块石材接待台与氧化铜隔断帘）提升了空间的层次感。接待台的每一面都经单独打磨、皮革处理或喷砂，致敬原始岩石；而随着光线移动，虹彩隔断帘从橙色渐变至紫色，演绎金属的蜕变。从互动式钻头展品到层理结构的设计参考，每一处元素都将力拓的安全、知识共享与文化尊重价值观，融入办公空间的肌理。这里不仅是办公场所，更是一座鲜活的博物馆 —— 致敬过往、拥抱当下，激发情感联结。
