Design that reflects its local environment is a huge focus for practising architects and designers, and Sydney's Barangaroo development is a hotbed for this kind of thinking. Gilbert + Tobin's new Barangaroo workplace, designed by Woods Bagot, draws inspiration from the rich history and landscape of the site, while nestling nicely into Sydney's new commercial identity.
