"Skill, ingenuity and creativity are appropriate bywords for this successful redevelopment of a seismically compromised building. The architect’s ability to negate the dominance of an intrusive new structural spine, part of a predetermined structural solution, is central to the success – as is the spatial planning that illustrates great care for user comfort, and significant energy efficiency and sustainability measures. In the reinvention of the existing perimeter stairwell elements, the architects provide an excellent example of ways to create value through creative regenerative design." Jury Citation.
