A high-density mixed-use development that integrates multiple user groups, and enhances each by the co-location of others.

City Shaping

To create a modern vibrant city, the notion of compartmentalising land uses to different allotments needs to be revisited. A high-density development such as Elizabeth St, can integrate multiple user groups, and not compromise these individual components, but enhance each by the co-location of others.

As the building connects to the ground plane, the key advantage of the mixed-use typology becomes apparent, in the significant extent of activation that is created through this typology. Multiple pedestrian access points are created, such that the extension and expansion of the street edge created by the development of an additional North-South shared link to the East of the site.

The opportunity being created, incorporates residential apartments, a hotel, commercial office tenancies of various sizes, and a roof-top restaurant. A typical challenge for these types of developments is to create legibility of each use within the building, whilst still creating a cohesive design language for the exterior and development as a whole.

The program is stacked vertically in the form, with each change in use identifiable by a shift in the building envelope and change in architectural language. The residential tower is expressed as a singular form, designed to be read at the city scale where it will be visible. The hotel component is a singular, slick form acting as the connector between the typologies. The commercial office tenancies create the elegant street wall for the development, with deep horizontal shading to fully protect the glass line in mid-summer, appropriate to a development in Western Sydney.

The ground plane is thereby truly active and will be a source of life across the day and night with each user group.
