Building C
The plan of the building is a rectilinear floor plate
of 1,300m 2 with a central core that allows lobby
access to four flexible subdivisions of 325m 2 per
floor. The three fire escapes allow dual escape
from each segment. The efficient rectangular plan
minimises the façade but is articulated to create
façade definition and design interest.
The ground floor of the building contains a
recessed parking level forming a base, which
allows the projecting office floors and the ‘floating
cubes’ of white structure to dominate. These
floating elements are eroded and cut into with
windows and balconies to create the large graphic
articulation of the form - play on solid and void. This
