A commercial project in Perth scoops several sustainability awards.
July 12th, 2010
2 Victoria Avenue is a PCA A-Grade office building, with a 6 Star Green Star Design v2 Rating.
It was developed with a clean and legible form, generated by the simple rectangular floor plate.
The floor plate is wrapped in a contemporary curtain wall system and with the use of a single vibrant colour to key elements, the building sits strongly within the urban context.
2 Victoria Avenue has recently been awarded The 2010 Ross Chisolm Award for Commercial Architecture and 2010 Walter Greenham Sustainable Architecture Award at the AIA WA Chapter Awards, as well as the WA Property of the Year and Aecom Award for Sustainable Development at the PCA WA Awards.
