The award-winning project at Queen & Collins Office Precinct represents an innovative blend of heritage and contemporary architecture. Crafted by Kerstin Thompson Architects and BVN, with ProBuild contributing to its realisation, this endeavour breathes life into two historic buildings in Melbourne, creating a captivating juxtaposition of tradition and modernity. The architectural vision meticulously balances the preservation of heritage elements with the creation of cutting-edge commercial spaces. Beyond honouring its past, the project embraces the challenges and dynamism of the present urban landscape.
For this project, Keystone provided our Key-Endura Fibre Cement Panels and Key R-Line Grooved MDF Profile Panels, enhancing the aesthetic and functional aspects of the office. We are truly proud of the exceptional design and the seamless collaboration fostered among professionals during this project.
