Cundall

What does #AdaptiveReuse look like in practice? Cundall’s team in Sydney has been busy answering this question. 121 Castlereagh Street has undergone a transformation from a heritage-listed department store into a luxury mixed-use tower. The former iconic David Jones store in the centre of Sydney’s busy #Retail hub now features 1,500 square metres of premium-grade office space, an upgraded retail podium, and an elevated residential addition featuring 98 luxury apartments. Cundall’s team provided #ESD consultancy services from the early design stage through to completion. Our team devised a strategy that preserved the historic façade while completely reimagining the interior, ensuring robust #Sustainability outcomes. Commenting on the project, Cundall's Julian Bott said: "This project is a true example of how thoughtful renovation can preserve history, enhance beauty, and enable older buildings to achieve outstanding sustainability." Great to partner with Cbus Property, Scentre Group (Owner of Westfield destinations in Aus and NZ) & fjcstudio.   Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/e2tajgKx

“I joined the initiative because I know firsthand how important a bit of a guidance can be,” says Robert Marney reflecting on his recently received ‘Best Mentor of the Year’ award by The Amos Bursary. “These young adults have so much potential and I’m glad to be able to part of their journey finding success in what they enjoy.”   The Amos Bursary is helping to positively shape the futures of Britain’s talented young people of African and Caribbean heritage, creating a more diverse workforce. Robert has been part of their mentoring scheme for over three years, being one of the first mentors from the built environment.   As a business, helping and inspiring future talent is at the core of what we do, so we are proud of Robert's work supporting our next generation.

A good office refurb needs a great engineering team, a good fit-out and contractor and a creative interior designer that can deal with any challenge. Hence why Deborah Smith played a crucial role in our office move team, and her background in interior design enabled her to collaborate seamlessly with SPACE. Together, they ensured that the second-hand pieces we introduced to our office were cohesive. In the video, Debbie discusses the excellent working relationship they shared and how she ensured the office pieces met our workplace standards. She also offers advice to those looking to overcome hesitations about implementing circular economy furniture in their own offices.   We look forward to sharing the final video in the coming weeks.   #CircularEconomy #EdinburghWorkplace #OfficeMove
