This 27 storey, 1970’s modern heritage building in Macquarie Street, houses the High Court of Australia, Federal Court of Australia, Supreme Court of NSW and their associated operational departments.

Fundamental to the design is the implementation of the philosophy of an open, transparent court process, the collegiality of judicial staff and incorporation of new technologies.

Design quality, the creation of spaces and the selection of materials befitting this important public institution, together with durability and longevity have been key drivers in the design process.
