Designed in conjunction with NY-based architect SHoP<\/em><\/a>, in partnership with Australian firm BVN<\/a><\/em> and Eckersley O\u2019Callaghan<\/em><\/a> as the structural engineering firm, once completed in 2025, the new Atlassian Headquarters in Sydney will break all the records. Under construction, the world\u2019s tallest hybrid timber building will be home to thousands of Atlassian technology workers, in a 40-story high tower<\/em><\/a> located in Sidney.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Including a mix of outdoor and indoor spaces, the timber design with a glass and steel fa\u00e7ade, \u201cwill use an energy-efficient approach that features natural ventilation and large planted terraces giving access to nature<\/em>\u201d. The project, in line with Atlassian\u2019s values, will operate on 100% renewable energy and reach net-zero emissions. In fact, the headquarters aim for 50% less embodied carbon in construction compared to a conventional building, and 50% less energy consumption compared with a new conventionally operated building. Solar panels in the vertical facades will help generate green power on-site. Eventually, the building will operate on 100% renewable energy with built-in solar panels in the fa\u00e7ade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Realizing Atlassian\u2019s goal of achieving net-zero carbon emissions by 2050, the new hybrid structure \u201c<\/strong>is significantly lower in embodied carbon and offers a substantial reduction in the building\u2019s carbon footprint<\/em>\u201d. In addition, the fa\u00e7ade incorporates an electricity-generating system with self-shade capabilities to reduce direct heat gain internally. \u201cCombined with the use of mass timber, the innovative facade enables the project to leverage Sydney’s temperate climate to help reduce carbon emissions and generate onsite energy<\/em>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A leading design in Mass Timber Construction (MTC), the project at approximately 180 meters \/ 590 feet high, is the tallest commercial hybrid timber building in the world. Part of the design, the structural element of the building is tied to the fa\u00e7ade. Imagined by SHoP\/BVN together with Eckersley O\u2019Callaghan, this approach generates a steel exoskeleton that supports the mega floors between neighborhoods. Moreover, the timber building generates a warm and inviting environment, for workers and visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
