Western Sydney Conference Centre & Pullman Sydney Penrith | TURNER
The Western Sydney Conference Centre (WSCC) is a hotel and conference centre in Penrith that creates a landmark ‘work, stay, play’ destination opposite the Penrith Panthers rugby club. It includes a conference facility, a 153room 5star hotel, a community centre and a shared civic domain.
The fluid, ribbonlike shape of the building is inspired by the nearby Nepean River, with a sinuous form that encourages movement around the site. Polished stainless steel soffits mimic shimmering light on water, whilst local artwork adds elements of surprise and delight. Generous, landscaped public open space invites the community in and will become the gateway to the new Riverlink Precinct.
The WSCC makes a significant contribution to the vision for Penrith as a vibrant urban hub. Providing an exciting new business, entertainment and recreation destination with a strong sense of place, it sets a benchmark for future development.
