This project was a collaboration between Charter Hall and Western Sydney University to deliver a world class education and innovation hub. Featuring a ‘triple-height’ entry precinct with a ground floor public plaza complemented by food, beverage, and retail providers. Coupled with university showcase spaces, user experience labs and technology-rich installations, it is a place to stimulate the best ideas in the brightest minds.
Built around a future-ready digital spine, it is the perfect home for ambitious, forward-thinking businesses. The 6 Star Green Star, 19-storey building puts innovation and engineering on display, with 15 metre exposed, off-form concrete columns and structural steel V bracing integrated into the glass facade. The building technology includes an integrated communications network, smart bathrooms, touchless amenities, one-tap building access, public Wi-Fi, wireless charging outlets and lift call apps.
6 Hassall Street facilitates the collaboration and partnership between education and industry, blending A-grade commercial workspace, sustainability innovation, advanced building technologies and wellbeing features, premium amenity with an inspirational engineering and built environment vertical campus.
Despite being delivered throughout the COVID-19 lockdowns and restrictions, the 6 Hassall Street project was one of the fastest commercial precincts delivered in the construction industry. The judges were impressed by the innovation and high standard of finish achieved in this project.
