Responding sensitively to its rich industrial context, the design of T3 Wellington positively contributes to Collingwood’s urban streetscape and sense of community.
The high-quality 15 level commercial building provides an activated ground plane with a cafe. A glazed facade and canopies further enhance the street frontage and pedestrian experience.
The building form references surrounding warehouse building typologies, with a rhythmic and visually cohesive brick facade to ground and podium levels, and upper levels to the east. Large, punched window openings form the facade, with metal surrounds providing solar shading.
Achieving best practice sustainability, the project exemplifies mass timber construction, building performance, occupancy comfort and urban environment.
T3 Collingwood is Hines; first mass timber office building in Asia Pacific, adding to our global portfolio of 26 timber assets across North America and Europe. The T3 concept is built around three pillars: the warmth and sustainability of timber, the innovations made possible by new technology, and the connectivity of transit.
The design focuses on occupant wellbeing, offering an employee centric workspace that attracts and retains talent. Meeting ambitious sustainability targets, T3 Collingwood responds to a growing demand for high-quality, green office buildings in Australia. We’re incredibly proud of the outcome.
