Landmark by Lexus at the Melbourne Cup Carnival was a three-level entertainment pavilion offering views over Flemington Racecourse. Koichi Takada Architects designed the pavilion’s form using modular components to create a natural external flow inspired by echoes of waves and shadow and light.

And Fiona Lynch Office crafted the interior to provide a “reflective harmony,” with changing daylight used to create poetry and play in a variety of spaces, both raw and refined. “The reflective finishes of the unexpected and refined interiors we’ve created presents as a modern mirror on ourselves, society and the cultural fabric of the Spring Carnival,” says Fiona Lynch. Throughout the pavilion, guests were surrounded by bespoke florals from Sydney experiential florists Hermetica, and bespoke fragrances by The Raconteur.
