We are excited to unveil our latest collaboration with The Great Room on its newly open coworking space in the heart of Sydney. Created to meet the evolving needs of modern Australian professionals, the space brings together the warmth of hospitality with the functionality of a contemporary workplace.
We approached this space as a journey, designing moments of delight and timeless luxury. A hospitality-led workplace, The Great Room at 1 O’Connell is a place that invites people in, nurtures connection and reflects the distinct spirit of Sydney through its crafted details.
Inspired by the city’s natural landscape and architectural heritage, our team created a calm and elegant environment that sparks creativity and supports productivity. Earthy tones, soft curves and refined detailing create a distinctive sense of place.
For The Great Room’s second Sydney location, we delivered a hospitality-led workplace that balances operational needs with a strong sense of place. The space responds to the client’s global brand standards while remaining relevant to the local context to attract top Australian talent.
Melissa Noy, Associate, Design StrategistSpanning two connected floors, the coworking is filled with natural light and offers panoramic views of Sydney Harbour from its private offices. An internal staircase and a series of breakout areas encourage movement, collaboration and a strong sense of community.
Central to the experience is the communal drawing room, a welcoming space where members can meet, work and recharge. A mix of warm textures and materials evokes a relaxed, residential feel, while purpose-built zones support a range of activities from informal chats to focused work. A well appointed formal conference room and flexible event suite—the Stateroom and the Conservatory—complete the space, catering to everything from client meetings to large-scale gathering.
