Lendlease Apartments Settlement Kit

Service - Retail | Commissioner: Lendlease | Creator: Lendlease

Lendlease is a global company with an Australian heritage and local expertise across the core markets of Australia, Asia, the Americas and Europe. The Australian Apartments business forms part of the Urban Regeneration team, and together with our other specialist business units in commercial and retail, we specialise in creating new or revitalised spaces through urban renewal. We don’t develop buildings, we create places to live. And for over 60 years we’ve been practicing this idea on a global scale, crafting and nurturing our developments and spaces to suit the ever-changing lifestyles of our customers. Historically, our Apartments project teams operated in siloes, not only through their marketing outputs, but the way they engaged with customers. There were major inconsistencies in the way we delivered the customer experience to be memorable and meaningful. With a massive pipeline of settlements for FY17, we decided to take a national portfolio-based approach to how we operate as a business, standardising collateral and processes wherever we can to ensure we not only obtain efficiencies in time and money, but to make sure we have one shared voice. We wanted to communicate with one consistent brand and look and feel that can be recognised across Australia, no matter what project our customers encounter. Part of this standardisation piece was to create a standardised Settlement Kit, in which we engaged Houston Group to deliver a solution that met these requirements.

Campos Barangaroo

Interior Design - Hospitality - On the Go | Commissioner: Lendlease | Creator: Woods Bagot

Lustrous Brass Form a Sculptural Jewel. Situated at the entrance to one of the newly completed International Towers Sydney is Campos Barangaroo: a permanent, pop-up style coffee kiosk. Designed in conjunction with the lobby space in Tower Three, the boutique-scale project was designed to integrate with the grandeur of the lobby and base building architecture.

International Towers Sydney, Barangaroo

Wayfinding  | Commissioner: Lendlease | Creator: Frost*collective

Barangaroo is the largest and most high profile development in Sydney in over a century. Standing at the heart of Barangaroo’s commercial precinct are three iconic high-rise towers, the International Towers Sydney (ITS) designed by internationally acclaimed architects – Lord Richard Rogers and Ivan Harbour from Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners. As a development, ITS has enhanced Sydney’s position as a major centre for global finance and professional services. The development has been benchmarked against similar developments in New York, London, Hong Kong, Singapore and Shanghai. The three towers comprising ITS showcase the latest thinking in workplace design, sustainability and commerical architecture, proven by Barangaroo's recent unanimous 'Development of the Year' award.

International Convention Centre Sydney

Architecture - Public and Institutional | Commissioner: Lendlease | Creator: HASSELL + Populous

Spread over 250,000 square metres in the heart of Sydney, ICC Sydney at Darling Harbour is a new global benchmark in exhibition and convention venues and an important city-shaping project set to transform Sydney. The design creates a cohesive whole, there was a conscious decision to design three distinctive buildings, each with their own character and identity, informed by their use and their context in the landscape: the boldness and robustness of the ICC eatre, close to Chinatown and the city’s nightlife; the warm, earthy tones of the ICC Exhibition set in the parklands; and the re ective, crystalline ICC Convention on the harbour’s edge. In return each building connects with its immediate context physically and visually, taking in the di ering views, to ensure that it is not only an internal experience but one that embraces the uniqueness of its Sydney environment.

International Towers, Sydney

Architecture - Commercial - Constructed | Commissioner: Lendlease | Creator: Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners

The towers are conceived as three sibling buildings within the RSHP masterplan for Barangaroo South, each with their own identity. They form a western extension to Sydney’s CBD, meeting increased demand from tenants for large floorplate offices, and integral to the ongoing viability and success of Sydney as a global city and key financial centre. Together they assist in completing Sydney’s framework of tall buildings, established at Circular Quay and adjacent to the Botanic Gardens, with a rising form from south to north and a strong edge to the open water beyond. This cluster of buildings, similar in height to some of the existing CBD buildings, completes the city’s northwestern limit.
