The Jackson Orchard packing shed extension, completed in 2023, is a harmonious blend of modern engineering and timeless design. Originally designed by PTL in 1984, the shed has been extended to enhance functionality while preserving its heritage.

One striking feature is the beautiful exposed glue laminated timber portal frames, adding aesthetic appeal and ensuring durability. The design is stunning yet simplistic, allowing the architecture to shine. The extension integrates seamlessly with the original shed, making the transition almost imperceptible.

Described as a “cathedral to fruit,” the shed combines architectural beauty with practical fruit packing. High ceilings and expansive spaces create a sense of grandeur, making it not just functional but a source of inspiration and pride. The Jackson Orchard packing shed extension honors the past while embracing the future.
