Demolition of existing buildings on site and the construction of a 7 storey combined retail/commercial building, comprising of two basement carparks, one level of retail space and four commercial levels. Construction of this project included the temporary retention of an existing heritage façade, demolition of all existing buildings within the heritage façade and incorporating the heritage façade into the new building on both street frontages. The building was designed and constructed to achieve a 4 star NABERS rating.
The 360 Oxford St project included the construction of a 7 storey combined retail/commercial building, comprising of 374sq m of ground floor retail space divided into 4 tenancies, 411sq m commercial space on level 1, 264sq m commercial space on level 2, & 1,056sq m on levels 3-6, a total of 2,105sq m.
The Basement level included carparking for 13 vehicles, a shower room and bike racks. Construction of this project included the temporary retention of an existing heritage façade, demolition of all existing buildings within the heritage façade and incorporating the heritage façade into the new building on both street frontages. The building was designed and constructed to achieve a 4 star NABERS rating and incorporated innovative features such as a living Greenwall screen to provide shading on the Western façade, an entry lobby atrium that carries over 2 floors and a rooftop terrace.
Problems raised and solved:
- Retaining and incorporating the existing Heritage Façade
