Located in East Melbourne on the edge of the grid the 11,950m² building is close to Melbourne’s prime cultural, entertainment, sporting and retail facilities.

The building occupies two street frontages along Albert Street to the south and Evelyn Place to the west.  It sits at the rear of two heritage buildings with its southernmost façade set back 18.5 metres from the Albert Street frontage.  It is articulated as a series of three vertical rectangular blocks, tiered up from the street in small increments to locally conceal the rear volumes.

The complex is designed to provide sustainable design solutions in accordance with the Melbourne City Council Sustainable Design Guidelines.
