NDY Perth has been a long term tenant at 200 St Georges Terrace, Perth since the early 1970s and knew what they wanted in their new office fitout, so when the opportunity came to move up one floor, from 10 to 11, it was time for the fitout that was “built to how we wanted to use it”, says NDY’s Perth state director Andrew Macgregor.
NDY is proud that it was all done to a standard commercial price – the project achieved its target of a 5 Star Green Star Office Interiors v1.1 rating and is considered Australian Excellence in sustainable design. This was the perfect opportunity for NDY to “walk the talk” and prove that a 1970s building can be upgraded to a Green Star level – at an affordable price.
The end result combines an efficient layout with wellness supporting workspaces, and highly sustainable and environmentally friendly design features, providing a work place that promotes health as well as efficiency.
The team involved MKDC as the lead consultant, project manager and interior designer, NDY’s sustainability team as the Green Star Accredited Professional and Northerly as the head contractor.
NDY’s Global Director of Sustainability at the time of project completion, Tony Arnel, said the Perth office fitout was a major milestone demonstrating the company’s commitment to sustainability.
