Western Australia
The interior fit-out at 2 Parliament Place accommodates ten tenants, including the Legislative Assembly, Legislative Council, Parliamentary Services, Leader of the Opposition Party, Leader of the Non-Governmental Party, and Parliamentary Electorate Offices, seeking to streamline operations and promote collaboration amongst teams. Materials and finishes were selected for a timeless, professional aesthetic, drawing inspiration from the existing Parliament House and Western Australia’s natural environment.
The interior design harmoniously integrates parliamentary tradition with modern functionality.
The new fit out for 2 Parliament Place underscores Parliament’s vital role in WA, consolidating dispersed teams for a more efficient operational model, rationalising multiple leases and streamlining administrative processes. The co-location of teams in a space directly adjacent Parliament House emphasises a commitment to synergy and effectiveness, allowing for smoother communication and decision-making. This project aligns resources to better serve the needs of WA’s parliament and people, ensuring a more effective and responsive parliament.
