More and more integrated façade solutions should
be available on the market and the biggest issue for

that can be made is turning air-conditioning and
lights off altogether.
World leading projects
Alistair has been fortunate to work upon world
leading projects, from residential buildings through
to the design of large town centres. A few projects
that have won awards in the field of sustainability
are Rouse Hill Town Centre NSW Australia, 1 Bligh

Sydney, NSW, Westfield Sydney shopping centre and
commercial towers.
Collaborative Competition
Alistair’s latest projects target a collaborative
competition model bringing together Universities,
professionals from the construction industry and
non-government organisations (NGO). Bri
