Macquarie Bank

35,000 m2 NLA
Located within the King St Wharf precinct on the CBD edge of Darling Harbour, this iconic premium grade commercial building was designed as Macquarie Bank’s Sydney headquarters.
The striking structural exoskeleton was not only an innovative design, it was a smart structural solution to address existing on site constraints including building above the existing basement.The commercial lobby was elevated above street level to provide enhanced views, while activated street frontages offer high levels of tenant and public amenity.
The dramatic atrium space runs the entire length of the site with column free floor plates either side. Floors are connected via skybridges across the atrium, providing break out spaces and meeting areas, long before “bump-in moments” became the standard in progressive workplace design.
