ANZ Workplace Shortlisted for Sustainability Awards

The shortlist for the 2024 Sustainability Awards has been released, showcasing some of the most groundbreaking innovations in sustainable architecture and design. Woods Bagot’s fitout for ANZ Adelaide has been shortlisted alongside eight other exceptional projects for the “Interior Design” category.

The Sustainability Awards is Australia’s longest running and most prestigious awards program dedicated to celebrating excellence in sustainable design and architecture.

This year’s awards recognise projects across nine distinct categories, from commercial architecture to hospitality and tourism, as well as three special awards for innovation, and one people award for an emerging sustainable designer.

Woods Bagot’s fitout for ANZ Adelaide has been shortlisted for the “Interior Design” category, which honours renovations or fitouts of interiors of existing buildings where sustainability has been considered a core design principle. Criteria influencing the jury’s selection included efficient and effective use of space; the use of construction materials with low environmental impact; minimal waste and pollution in construction; and overall efficient energy use.

ANZ’s new Adelaide headquarters is located on level 18 of 83 Pirie Street – a Woods Bagot-designed, 5-star Greenstar rated office building achieving world-class environmental standards. The client consciously selected the building for its new headquarters for its high sustainability credentials, which aligned with the organisation’s values for sustainability and innovation.
