Eleven Eastern is a dynamic commercial building offering premium, contemporary workspaces for businesses that value innovation.
The striking free-form design evolved from the different heights and setbacks of two combined sites and the desire to capitalise on views. We designed the 14-storey building with four distinct, stacked volumes that gently turn and flare to face different aspects of the city.
Vertical blades wrap the glass façade, carefully modelled and tuned for the solar heat load and air conditioning, while maintaining natural light and views for the interiors. The glass wall and blades are pressed inward to articulate the main entry and scoop around the urban artwork in the new pedestrian plaza adjacent to the tram super stop.
Providing an attractive new workplace in South Melbourne, Eleven Eastern combines corporate appeal with highly considered amenities, including bike storage, end-of-trip facilities and luxury change rooms. The flexible and adaptable workspaces can expand and contract in size, and every tenancy has access to an open-air terrace with views across the area.
