16 Marcus Clarke Street, Canberra City

Sited on the western edge of the CBD, The Barrandi Centre at 16 Marcus Clarke Street presents a dramatic and award-winning piece of architecture. Built in 2009, this precinct offers its tenants an “A” Grade office space with efficient floor plate size, high quality base building amenities and high efficiency plant and services.

Sustainability is central to The Barrandi Centre’s design, with the building receiving a 5 Star Green Star Rating following construction and maintaining an excellent 5 Star NABERS Rating during the majority of its operation. This can be attributed to the north facing precast concrete-clad side core design acts as a solar screen, reducing the thermal load from direct sunlight during peak hours of the day, combined with efficient lighting and air conditioning services and careful building management.

The Barrandi Centre features a floor to ceiling articulated curtain-wall construction, which allows for an abundance of soft southern natural light and offers clear views of Parliament House and Lake Burley Griffin from its upper levels. Its efficient central built zone offers clear span office environments, as well as outstanding horizontal and vertical connectivity. Amenities include basement showers and lockers, secure bicycle spaces and a vibrant café space offering excellent coffee and meals.

Tenants also enjoy the close proximity to both the Canberra Centre and the entertainment and dining hub of New Acton.

15 Moore Street, Canberra City

Formally known as Tobruk House and built for the Polish Club in the early 1980’s, 15 Moore Street has a rich history supporting public venues and restaurants. Once featuring a large ground floor stage and amphitheatre, the building was used to showcase Polish dancing performances and various other community group activities.

These days 15 Moore Street is a little more sophisticated, housing a mixture of government and commercial tenants and supporting the smart contemporary restaurant – Temporada.

The building features 6 floors of open plan office space, utilising an efficient central core design to maximise natural light and flexibility in the 1,000m² floor plates. Large double-glazed windows on levels 1 to 6 drink in the morning sun while ensuring the building maintains its impressive energy efficiency ratings. 15 Moore Street is currently achieving a 4.5 Star NABERS Rating.

The building is currently in the midst of a transformation, with the first addition being a new white paint scheme that incorporates black and grey highlights to draw the eye to the unique architectural design elements that give this building such a unique and sharp look.

The second step of this transformation is set to begin shortly, with 15 Moore Street recently receiving Development Application approval for an exciting foyer refurbishment and ground floor transformation. These works include the incorporation of the current twin entry foyers into a single double height foyer, complete with dark granite and soft timber tones. Full height glazing will allow light to flood onto the foyer space, with ground and mezzanine spaces benefitting from the addition of new rear windows to capture the afternoon sun.

ANZ House is conveniently located on the inner west side of the city, only a short walk from the tram stop, city bus terminal and Jolimont station.
