Kaz Tower

An iconic World Architecture Award winning luxury commercial and residential building. World Architecture Award Winner World Architecture Award Best Facade World Architecture Award Best Colour in Architecture Winner Excellence in Brick and Block Awards The façade is dominated by a mosaic of angled window bays in a palette of bright colours to liven up the city street. The façade has an environmental purpose. The window bays are angled to maximise the light. Kaz used parametric modelling to calculate the direction of the sun at different times , and directed the angle of the windows accordingly. In this way technology makes possible a building which captures every bit of sun creating one of the most unique buildings in Australia. The mosaic effect is reinforced by the use of coloured side panels which frame the windows and enhance the facets. The lobby is home to Sydney Aboriginal Cafe which delivers a unique food experience. The cafe features Aboriginal fusion food by the Koori Kulcha Aboriginal Corporation, a not-for-profit Community organisation. The result is incredible a highly sculptural yet contextual building which sets an incredibly high benchmark for contemporary CBD design. While a picture tells a thousand words, the best way to really appreciate the unique World Architecture Award winning design of the Kaz Tower is to stroll past 273-279 Sussex Street, Sydney Australia and see for yourself.
