A 32-level hotel and office tower in Adelaide with a timber structure, 18,976 m² GFA and a project value of $210m, now in planning.

Chris provides development management from feasibility through the development application: the brief, the consultant team, the planning strategy and the budget and program that hold the two uses together in one building.

The structure is timber across all 32 levels, which sets the structural, fire and procurement questions early rather than leaving them for the contract.
