Background
Martin Place is Sydney’s cultural, commercial and financial hub.
The state government have started a new Metro project, opening new stations across Sydney and the wider state of New South Wales.
After the demolishment of a key property on Martin Place to make way for the new Metro station, there was opportunity to build a new tower on the land above the Metro station.
This new building would be opposite the iconic and well established 50 Martin Place.
.
Opportunity
This new tower, originally called ‘South Tower’ is an exciting project to create a new landmark in Sydney.
It will house:
– A new high speed metro station
– A communal food hall
– An office tower
– A communal food hall
– An office tower
All of which help create a connected experience for Sydney’s workers.
There was opportunity to create a name and visual identity system for this new building.
.
Solution
The identity concept explores the tension between the old and new, past and present.
This matches the actual design idea of 39 Martin Place which is a modern reflection of the iconic 50 Martin Place.
This is both a reflection of our past and a visionary response into the future.
