Sustainability
Real outcomes,not box ticking
Sustainability on a Vettex project is set early, in the design and in the planning case, not bolted on at the end to meet a rating. Done that way it changes what gets approved, what the building costs to run and what it gives back.
57–71 Stephenson Street / Cremorne
Australia’s tallest mass timber office building
Fifteen storeys of cross-laminated timber floors on glulam columns, with low-carbon concrete kept to the basement and ground floor. On completion it is set to be the tallest mass timber office building in Australia and the most sustainable, and those commitments have been part of the case for its height.

View projectMatter House / Cremorne
An office building that makes energy
Designed with Hassell and Finding Infinity as a net producer of energy: an on-site digester turns food waste from nearby businesses into power, with the surplus fed to the grid. Room for the digester was part of the case that took the approval from 10 storeys to 13.
