Western Australia’s Greenest Building Sets High Design Standards
Located in Perth’s central business district, 2 Victoria Avenue is a 7,185-square-meter (77,000-sq.ft.), four-story Class-A office building. Designed by Woodhead Architects, the contemporary and innovative glass and burnt orange metal facade represent the building’s most prominent design features.
The western facade is fully shaded by automatic operable louvers that respond to the movement of the sun throughout the day. Individual bays of louvers respond independently depending on shade created by adjacent trees and buildings, providing movement and visual interest across the building front facade.
Owned and managed by Australia’s major property developer Stockland, 2 Victoria Avenue was designed to be a benchmark for new sustainable office developments. Located adjacent to the company’s 13-story Durack Center, 2 Victoria Avenue is Stockland’s highest rated certified green building. The project was the first in Western Australia to receive a 6-Star Green Star Office Design V2 rating from the Green Building Council of Australia. The building was also the first in Western Australia to commit to a 5-star energy rating from the National Australian Built Environment Rating System (NABERS), a rating equivalent to a high-level Energy Star score in the U.S.
