Herbert Smith Freehills (HSF) was the first legal firm to take an office on St Georges Terrace, traditionally Perth’s premier business address.
Eighteen years later, it has once again led the way with its move to Elizabeth Quay, a new mixed-use waterfront precinct on the Swan River, taking two floors of the 29-storey tower One The Esplanade, the city’s newest premium-grade office building.
While traditionally legal firms are desk and office bound, Woods Bagot has implemented a hybrid office strategy to encourage new ways of working and interacting.
Now that we have settled in, we have been welcoming our clients to see the new digs, and to give the baristas at our in-house Café Maali a workout! We have hosted numerous successful client events, and staff have been using our new office as a springing board to reinvigorate existing client relationships and make new ones. Since moving to 1TE, there has been a noticeable positive shift in the way we work and collaborate with one another and our clients.
The Australian Institute of Architects acknowledges First Nations peoples as the Traditional Custodians of the lands, waters, and skies of the continent now called Australia.
We express our gratitude to their Elders and Knowledge Holders whose wisdom, actions and knowledge have kept culture alive.
We recognise First Nations peoples as the first architects and builders. We appreciate their continuing work on Country from pre-invasion times to contemporary First Nations architects, and respect their rights to continue to care for Country.
