Developed by Investa for Oxford Investa Property Partners (OIPP), Barrack Place at 151 Clarence Street in Sydney, has been awarded the Urban Land Insitute (ULI) Asia Pacific 2019 Award for Excellence.

We would like to convey our appreciation to all of our consultants, contractors and stakeholders on the project, for their contribution and shared vision in bringing Barrack Place to life.”

The award ceremony took place in Shanghai, as part of the ULI’s 2019 ULI Asia Pacific Summit.

Architectus’ Managing Principal, Colin Odbert, said “it is an honour to receive this ULI Asia Pacific Award for Excellence for Barrack Place. The award represents both Architectus’ and Investa’s commitment to delivering developments that exceed expectations and showcase superior quality in design and architecture. Drawing inspiration from the heritage of the precinct, our focus was on creating a contemporary, commercial space that creatively reflects the history of the area, while providing a design solution that meets the needs of modern workers.”
