Atlassian Central is a skyscraper in Sydney, Australia, currently under construction and located next to Sydney's main transport hub, Central railway station. Designed by SHoP Architects and BVN Architecture, [1] the building will rise 42 stories to a height of 183 meters. [2] Once completed, it will be the tallest hybrid timber structure in the world, built using a combination of mass timber, concrete, and steel. [3] The design features a glass and steel exoskeleton, planted terraces, and an innovative natural ventilation system. [4]

The building will house Atlassian's headquarters and also include spaces dedicated to YHA Australia, which will occupy the lower five floors with its 500-bed “co-living” accommodation. [5]

History

Initial design of the building began in 2019 and was completed two and a half years later in August 2022, after 160 different cost plans, 55 embodied-carbon assessments, and 50 different design submissions. [5] Atlassian engaged KPMG for their Direct Negotiation Proposal to the Government of New South Wales to procure the site. [6]

Construction of the building by a joint venture between Built Pty Ltd and Obayashi Corporation [7] began in August 2022 [8] and is expected to be completed by 2026 at an estimated cost of approximately $1.4 billion Australian dollars. [2] [9] [5] Its development is part of the Government of New South Wales's plan to create a technology district in the area adjacent to Central railway station. [4]
