PROJECTS

A carefully choreographed mixed-use development disrupts the existing pattern in Melbourne’s Docklands by introducing fine-grain detail to a large-scale project.

Sydney’s Quay Quarter Tower shows that with planning foresight, architectural ingenuity and engineering rigour, even the most complex of existing buildings can be transformed to extend its life.

A neglected post-industrial area of central Brisbane is transformed into a vibrant arts precinct through a collaborative private delivery model with a nuanced approach at both the strategic and the fine-grain scale.

In a novel alliance between several practices, each team’s distinct design sensibility and autonomy was key, alongside a precise understanding of how each building would interact with its “siblings” and with the central public space connecting them.

Collins Arch – a collaborative new tower, plaza and park has the potential to shift the city’s twenty-first-century centre of gravity.

In one of the oldest structures in Tasmania, Partners Hill has created a mixed-use space, and a home, that honours the building’s varied historical program, while equipping it thoughtfully for 21st century life.

Bates Smart’s twin elliptical towers in Sydney’s Olympic Park present architecture as a positive force in city life.

Hassell chairman Ken Maher reviews Bates Smart’s 420 George Street.
