The award organisers said:

“The design objective for this project was to enlighten the space through the considered use of materials and finishes. A sleek, geometric design was explored to target a corporate inner city market. Organic shaped motifs were introduced to balance and compliment the overall design.

“A mix of vision and obscure glazing combined with Corian® Glacier White enabled Nettleton Tribe to balance the privacy demands of the new tenancy spaces.”
