One Shelley Street is an impressive place. Planned to break all kinds of space composition paradigms, Clive Wilkinson Architects implemented the project for the Macquarie Group, creating a modern environment to a investment company.
Placed in Sydney, Australia, the project was conceived as a small villa, One Shelley Street abuses of enormous and flexible spaces with many functions, common areas are integrated to work environments and meeting rooms with panoramic views. A place with simple and modern lines, white in its majority but mixed with vibrant colors. A project that will be a referral point to the construction of sustainable offices buildings. Definitely a place that even Google would like to own!
One Shelley Street has been designed to the highest levels of green star or LEED efficiency, using revolutionary technologies like harbor water cooling, chilled beams and zone controlled lighting.
The business benefit of ABW is the elimination of ‘churn’—the cost of moving groups and redefining spaces. Investing now meant savings in the future and Macquarie is providing an unmatched quality of life for its employees—benefiting clients, investors, shareholders and the environment.
