Bringing a visionary office to life.
An amalgamation of seven offices into one central workplace, the City of Greater Geelong's new civic precinct 'Wurriki Nyal' sets a national benchmark for sustainable civic design. Designed by Cox Architecture and delivered by BESIX Watpac, the building is one of Australia's largest cross-laminated timber (CLT) structures.
Burgtec was appointed as the primary workstations and furniture partner, helping to create a collaborative, people-focused environment for more than 700 staff. Every product was selected and manufactured to complement the project's sustainability goals and high-performance standards.
Burgtec supplied all workstations and a portion of the loose furniture, representing around 60 per cent of the project's overall fitout. The scope included custom wraparound upholstered screens, sit-to-stand electric workstations powered by LINAK actuators, and a range of seating, tables and storage solutions.
Burgtec's workstation and furniture solution complemented the building's sustainability framework, contributing to its 6 Star Green Star and 6 Star NABERS Energy ratings. Locally manufactured products with 10-year warranties provided durability and lifecycle efficiency — directly supporting the project's ESD targets.
