The project
Gray Puksand designed this 1,069 square metre workplace for the Delegation of the European Union to Australia. It meets EU technical standards and the European External Action Service security policy, with a single Zone 4 high-security entrance. Visitors arrive in a reception and waiting area before reaching private offices for the Head of Delegation and an audio-secure conference room for up to 40 delegates.
Soundproofed meeting and quiet rooms sit alongside an open workspace, balancing collaboration and focused work. Colour and texture make the space sociable, while the perimeter is used to bring daylight deep into the floor. Planting throughout supports air quality and reduces noise. The project was completed in 2025.

Open workstations against blue joinery and planters.
