Details
Across from Albert Park Lake and along the busy Queens Road in Melbourne, Australia, Queens Domain stands wrapped with a unique white balustrade creating a futuristic look.
Doing without the heavy dead weight of concrete, the ShapeShell panel was an ideal match that offered advantages for the building as a whole such as a fast install program, fewer columns to support each floor, low post-tensioned slabs and to add an extra bonus, the building foundations were able to support another floor giving the client an ideal advantage. Not using the tower crane to install the panels allowed the builder to finish months early.
