2010 Queensland Architecture Awards

The Ipswich Justice Precinct in QLD was recently awarded the 2010 QLD Architecture Awards William Hodgen Award for Building of the Year.  The architecture work was done by Cox Rayner Architects with ABM Architects and we advised on the Access requirements of the project, including preparation of an Access Policy and advised on accessible design.  Congratulations to the team.

A number of jobs are on the go at MCAD Old Parliament House including work on the Front Entry.  Work on the internal stairs and the roof access will soon commence.

Work was recently completed on the Mental Heath Unit at the Canberra Hospital.  We provided design, documentation and construction stage advice for conversion of two clinic areas within Hospital and coordinated sub consultants.
