Project Summary

A large-scale masterplan for a data centre campus, developed through early feasibility and planning stages.

I contributed to feasibility, concept, and planning approval work across multiple stages, helping shape clear presentation materials and coordinate consultant input for a complex infrastructure project.

Core Problem

Delivering planning approvals for a major infrastructure project requires balancing technical constraints with rigorous design and regulatory controls.

  • Coordinating major services and infrastructure requirements within the broader masterplan.
  • Addressing acoustic, environmental, and site planning considerations.
  • Supporting staged delivery to align with long-term project planning.
  • Responding to complex site and planning context.

Architectural Response

My role focused on turning these constraints into clear architectural documentation that could be easily reviewed by the client and approved by the state.

Iterative Option TestingRapidly tested planning and massing options to support early decision-making.
Consultant CoordinationHelped integrate technical requirements into the concept design so key constraints were addressed early.
Visual CommunicationCreated clear 3D massing and presentation material for review and stakeholder communication.
