For Australians, sport is fundamental to cultural identity – with stadiums often the crowning jewels of the nation’s cities.

With its ​‘fan-first’ design, Optus Stadium in Perth is up there with the most-loved Australian destinations for sport and entertainment.

The 60,000-seat colosseum gives every single fan an incredible view for every single event – from cricket and rugby to concerts and athletics. The venue’s seamless integration of audio-visual elements makes for an even more memorable experience.

It’s world-class in every sense. At the same time, it’s entirely of its place – reflecting the state’s proud sporting, cultural and Aboriginal heritage. Like a gleaming trophy, the bronze, anodised aluminium façade reflects the unique geology of Western Australia, while a lightweight fabric roof shelters 85 percent of the seats from the searing Perth sun.

About the
Professional

Our purpose is to design the world’s best places – places people love.

Globalisation, climate change, urbanisation, and digitisation present new opportunities and challenges for how we live.

In this fast-changing context, we bring together the best designers and thinkers in a unique collaborative process that results in both beautiful design and measurable value.

We work across architecture, landscape architecture, interior design and urban design - a rich multi-disciplinary mix of skills and perspectives that unlocks the economic, social and cultural value of projects.

We combine our creative design expertise with capabilities in strategy, research, technology and experience design, and we regularly collaborate with experts and partners from further afield.

Through our work, we’re trying to build a more inclusive, sustainable future for communities - and create a more socially and ecologically resilient world.

Our clients look to us for more than our design skills. They want us to help them unlock value for their business and their end users – and find ways to better connect people.
