Barangaroo House – AIA National Commendation for Commercial Architecture

Awards, Project Updates

We are delighted that Barangaroo House has won a national commendation for Commercial Architecture, at a ceremony held in Melbourne  Docklands this week. The Jury noted ” Barangaroo House in Barangaroo, Sydney is a rare example of the standalone restaurant building typology. Located on a prominent waterfront site, its facade presents as three woven baskets floating above one another with a sense of movement and balance. The building occupies a tight square site that is seen in the round and from overhead. The response was to curve the building elements in both plan and section, making an organic, abstract form. At once an occupiable piece of art and a deft resolution of technical challenges, Barangaroo House confidently enriches the public realm of the precinct.”
