Sensory immersion

Transurban

Transurban is an immersive, sensory experience that fosters innovation and wellbeing in a best-in-class office space.

Brenton Smith

Director

Occupying three floors of a 26-storey commercial tower at 210 George Street, the highly crafted interior fitout aligns with Transurban’s core business and is a manifestation of infrastructure and scale, and community connectivity.

Connection to materiality is significant to the design, with a Sydney-centric vernacular woven throughout the interior to evoke a strong sense of place. Designed to engage clients and staff, it incorporates textural, natural materials and integrated light to activate the senses.

The large double-height space is symbolic of the significance of the structures Transurban builds, while the chiselled stone structure of the reception desk is symbolic of excavated strata and earth.

The honesty of the base building’s architectural rawness has been intentionally retained and built upon. The double-height space on the client floor has been designed as an immersion zone.

A technology and digital overlay carried across the base build and into the working and breakout spaces talks to the brand, showcasing Transurban as a dynamic forward-thinking business within the transport sector.

An engagement with nature is made through texture, material and light. Outdoor spaces with natural ventilation integrate living green to foster a sense of wellbeing and harmony.
