Putting it all together

The large city centre building at 20-24 Queen Street and 1-10 St Ebbe’s Street has sat under-utilised for over a decade. The Office Group (Fora and TOG) has apponted MICA to bring forward a application for this site, bringing new purpose to the building for high quality active uses, and renewing a piece of the city.

Designs intelligently re-use and re-purpose the existing building, to provide high-quality workspaces with a focus on wellbeing. Sitting within its historic context, the designs for the building will actively contribute to the vitality and vibrancy at ground floor on both Queen Street and St Ebbe’s Street, as well as creating a rich roof landscape. The project will be an exemplar retrofit, improving the building’s performance with sustainable design measures and a lowenergy servicing strategy.
