Case Study: Adelaide Convention Center

Located in the Riverbank district, a landmark of the historic city, the Adelaide Convention Center celebrates its 30th anniversary by revealing its new face thanks to the completion of its entire renovation.

The outer skin of the East Building, designed by the architectural office Woods Bagot, was clad with red coloured zinc-titanium: elZinc Rainbow® Red. The building’s exterior appearance and its defining colour respond to the design intent of the architects, evoking the rocky boulders from Kangaroo Island, known as The Remarkables.

The material and the system

The fitting of the elZinc Rainbow Red elements was undertaken using the flat lock technique. A traditional system for facades that uses interlocking panels to offer a multiple of design options.

Distinctive features
The building’s sculptural exterior shape was made using triangular surfaces which together generate multiple faces. One of the most complicated issues that had to be addressed was the transition between the different triangular faces, whose edges had to have a smoothly curved shape as free as possible from creases or kinks on the zinc sheets. To further complicate things, the curvature in some of these transitions is gradually reduced from one end of the edge to the other.

Discover a rainbow of possibilities
elZinc Rainbow® is a colored zinc range that offers six diferent finishes: red, blue, green, brown, ebony and gold.
