HOTEL + COMMERCIAL PRECINCT

PARAMATTA SQUARE DESIGN EXCELLENCE COMPETITION

Our vision for this project was to create a beautiful and sustainable new urban precinct in Parramatta. Our proposal seeked to revitalise this important city block by creating legible and meaningful connections through site, enhancing permeability and connectivity of city, creating frontage and address. It is to be a place of city making rejuvenation where landscape, art and architecture converge to create a memorable experience that enhances the life of the city. The scheme offers a unique workplace for the 21st Century, responsive to the context and site surroundings and human-centric. A hotel that welcomes guests to a world of luxury while re-imagining the city’s history.

With respect to the lands we inhabit, work on and work for, we recognise the traditional owners and their descendants as having continuing connection to the land and waters, and thank them for fostering country since time immemorial. We acknowledge that sovereignty was never ceded and that the earth, waters and skies associated with this continent always have been and always will be of it’s traditional owners.
