Callington Mill Distillery, located in the shadow of Oatlands’ iconic windmill, balances industry and tourism, traditional materials, and contemporary design.
The design navigates the need to house the industrial manufacturing requirements of a working whisky distillery while providing the immersive visitor experience of a traditional cellar door.
Our Tumbled bricks
The material selection was heavily influenced by the local heritage code requirements for masonry cladding. The predominant brick, our Tumbled Virginia has a soft and chalky patina that references the sandstone of the surrounding buildings whilst the simple gabled forms reference the town’s rooftops in height and aesthetic.
When is search of authentic atmospheres, our Tumbled bricks come in hand. They can be **totally reclaimed/upcycled, or subjected to
specific aging processes** during the production phase, achieving that vintage result, indistinguishable from an actually-reclaimed brick.
Callington Mill is a refined, considered, and modern working building within one of the oldest Georgian settlements in Australia, providing a unique tourist experience and immersing visitors in the story of local whisky.
