A striking design feature of the building is the liberal and artistic application of the vibrant and resplendent blue and yellow ENJO livery.
Tilt-up concrete panels have been used to maximise the net usable space and minimise construction time. Floating bulkheads suspended from the ceilings were used to duct air-conditioning and also provide mood lighting to work stations. The exterior needed to reflect the strong environmental ethos of ENJO. With limited area for landscaping, and even less area for parking, a decision was made to combine the two by creating a grassed car park, utilising Boral BG pavers.
The interior was designed to incorporate a contemporary European feel with an open floor plan, using bleached timber and glass extensively throughout. Vaulted ceilings to the upstairs offices take advantage of the curved roofline.
The warehouse was designed to have minimal delineation and maximum integration between the office and the warehouse to complement both environments.
