A single mono-pitched form is extended to create a large continuous wedge, with courtyards, lightwells, and entry spaces carved out beneath the roof. A clear central circulation path runs through the building, making movement easy while revealing warm concrete and timber materials. Boardrooms and meeting spaces are carefully arranged around the courtyards and lightwells, leading to a café courtyard at the southwest corner. This space offers an open and welcoming place to gather, with barbecues under a high roof and views of existing trees and wetland gardens. The building provides a strong example of a well-designed, contemporary workplace.
