The new building responds strongly to its context whilst rebelling against the normal square and boxy appearance of most carpark structures.
The circulation cores giving access to the building are strong visual elements, brought to the street edge and made transparent to maximise safety and visibility.

Council were keen to see that the building reflected their environmental credentials and a number of key sustainability initiatives were employed including:
• Natural Ventilation to the entire carpark
• External screening using FSC rated timbers
• Maximum use of natural light
• High efficiency LED light fittings
• Building management system for monitoring energy usage
• Roof top solar panels sufficient to provide the buildings power consumption.
Local artists and school children have created murals which decorate the interior of the structure
The result is a highly organic structure that responds to the leafy boulevard of Atkinson Street, forming an undulating and modulating facade of significant interest and intrigue.
