Award of Merit:

Cox Architecture for Australian Retirement Trust Workplace

Cox Architecture (COX) is a design-focused contemporary architectural practice with Studios located in every major Australian city. Our design ethos underpins every project. Key to our ethos is enhancing the public life of our cities. We endeavour to do this by ensuring every project makes a positive contribution to its public realm – that it gives more than it takes.

About the Project

With a focus on value, ART’s workplace transforms an existing building into a dynamic new home with sustainability at its core. Nestled in the centre of each floorplate, wheelchair accessible platforms facilitating flexible workshop settings and touchdown, these HUBs are the Heart that Unites the Business. Anchored by an auditorium and located in the centre of the workplace stack, the central HUB is a landscaped community space. The space blurs the boundaries of inside and out in its sub-tropical environment. Naturally ventilated through automated louvres, brick flooring and landscaped seating the central hub emerges as a park-scape in the sky.
