Durlum Metal Ceiling Spotlight: Gadigal Metro Station Sydney

The opening of Gadigal Metro Station in August 2024 expanded Sydney Metro’s transportation network right in the heart of the central business district (CBD).

Designed by Foster + Partners as Principal Architects, with COX as Executive Architects, the station is deliberately commuter-first: streamlined and efficient, it promotes intuitive movement, legibility, and orientation through thoughtful material choices and careful shifts in scale and detail.

Within this architectural vision, durlum’s bespoke systems shape the station’s signature atmosphere. From entrance to platform, ceilings flow “like a cobra,” realized through 50,000 square-feet of customized 3-way curved bronze bulkheads  paired with white aluminum tubes fixed to perforated, sound-absorbing grey perforated metal panels, delivering both elegance and acoustic performance. Curved customized wall panels with integrated access panels, and black customized louver wall panels, complete a coordinated, high-precision interior that meets the extreme demands of a major transportation hub and creates an iconic landmark for the city of Sydney.
