PRAX

We were engaged to produce a concept design for a commercial campus office development with a large format retail podium for a key city fringe site. Anchoring the development is a fresh food retail tenant and the design for the podium reinterprets traditional retail market typologies in a contemporary context. Above the retail podium, large, flexible, campus-style commercial floorplates are oriented to maximise views which are available to both sides of the long elevations.   

A palette of materials including face brickwork and bronze anodised aluminium is selected to complement the city fringe setting. Generous landscaped outdoor terraces provide access to light and views for the commercial office tenants while the exposure to the podium level retail tenancies is maximised through large areas of protected glazing.
