Wollemi Capital translates the specialist climate investor’s mission to accelerate climate innovation into an intelligent, adaptive workplace in the heart of Sydney. Challenging conventional ‘green design’ agendas, the project prioritises measurable efficiencies, material reuse and extended object lifecycles, delivering a layered spatial response that balances integrity, durability and long-term performance.
Conceived as a collection of discrete yet interrelated ‘elements,’ the workplace establishes an adaptable framework that responds to the company’s brief for a low impact, evolving workplace. Deliberate overlaps between breakout, social, work and focus zones allow spaces to shrink or expand as needs change, while a suite of hyper-efficient design elements addresses sustainability across design, fabrication, and material sourcing.
The workplace allows us to work efficiently, collaboratively, and with focus, while reflecting our climate-led values. Overlapping, high-performing spaces allow us to operate within a smaller footprint, with equal access to light and views reinforcing our non-hierarchical culture. Elevated workstations and lustrous unfinished floors allow light to move freely, creating spatial generosity with minimal material use. Highly integrated acoustic, IT, and lighting systems support focused work and collaboration in close proximity. Calm, pared-back, and adaptable, the design supports daily operations, client hosting, and team interaction, demonstrating how sustainability, performance, and practical experience can be meaningfully aligned.
