  • John Gorton Building and Former Communications Centre
    Register of Significant Architecture RSTCA No: R085 Name of Place: John Gorton Building and former Communications Centre Other/Former Names: Administrative Building, Parkes Address/Location: Parkes Place, corner of King Edward Terrace, Parkes, ACT Block 1 Section 35 of Parkes Listing Status: Registered Other Heritage Listings: CHL, RNE, Part of Parliamentary Vista. Date of Listing: 15 December 1994 Level of Significance: Regional Citation Revision No: 2 Category: Government Citation Revision Date: 1 March 2017 Style: Stripped Classical Dates of Design: 1924, 1946, 1974 Designers: G Sydney Jones/Robertson & Marks, Dept of Interior, Dept of Works & Housing Construction Period: 1947-1956, 1977 Client/Owner/Lessee: Commonwealth of Australia Date of Addition: 1977 Builder: 1947 Concrete Constructions of Sydney STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE The John Gorton Building resulted from the winning Academic Classical style design in a 1924 Federal Capital Advisory Committee architectural competition for an administrative building. Only the siting and general layout of that design were followed when the building was redesigned in 1946 in the Inter-War Stripped Classical style and completed in 1956. It is a rare large-scale example of a public office building in that style. Key indicators of the style displayed in the building include: symmetrical facades; divisions into vertical bays indicating classical origins; vestigial classical columns; simple surfaces and spandrels between storeys subdued to emphasize verticality. Good use of light wells allows internal office areas to be well lit by daylight. Design elements which retain a high level of integrity are the exterior, foyer, lift lobbies and central corridors. The former underground Communications Centre, added in 1977, is a unique windowless secure environment for Government activities, with design elements, particularly in the foyer, evocative of the period – a mural, luminous ceilings, bright chrome pillars, curved walls, wall hangings by artist/weavers and plant containers.

  • An Integrated Water Account for the Canberra Region
    Bringing two water accounts together – an integrated water account for the Canberra region INFORMATION PAPER FOR THE LONDON GROUP MEETING, DUBLIN, 1-4 OCTOBER 2018 Wayne Qu, Steven May, Mike Booth, Janice Green and Michael Vardon Australian Bureau of Statistics Environment and Agriculture Statistics Development Section Water accounting is a way of arranging water information to suit a variety of management and policy needs. It provides a systematic process of identifying, recognising, quantifying, and reporting information about water and how it has been used. In Australia, there are many types of water accounts produced by a variety of business and government organisations, from catchment management regions to river basins, states, territories and at the national level. As competition for water resources increases so too does the need to fully and consistently account for how water is shared between the economy, people and the environment. In Australia, two Federal government agencies – the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) and the Bureau of Meteorology (BoM) – produce annual national water accounts of different types, for differing but complementary purposes. This project utilises the System of Environmental Economic Accounting (SEEA) and Australian Water Accounting Standard 1 (AWAS 1) frameworks to integrate these water accounts, which were individually compiled under the two different frameworks. It provides an excellent example of a National Statistical Office (NSO) working with another government organisation to produce a valuable set of integrated environmental-economic accounts. This paper outlines four types of integrated water accounts for the Canberra region produced as a result of this ABS/BoM collaboration, including water condition, water assets, physical and monetary supply and use accounts, as well as highlighting the benefits of combining two sets of water accounts constructed under two different frameworks.

  • Hot Spots: Hotel Hotel, Canberra | South China Morning Post
    Hot spots: Hotel Hotel, Canberra | South China Morning Post Hot spots: Hotel Hotel, Canberra Stephen Lacey THE DINING ROOM. What is it? Canberra's newest hotel and arguably one of the most groundbreaking boutique developments in Australia for the past decade. Hotel Hotel is located on the first three levels of an architectural oddity, the NewActon Nishi building, which locals have dubbed "The Pineapple" due to its segmented, off-kilter façade (pictured). We aren't sure what the architects were smoking, but we definitely want to try some. You sound impressed. You betcha. For a start, the hotel says it embraces the princi-ples of sustainability, community and diversity (the Hotel Hotel people refer to their place as being for "people people"). And the Nishi building is a veritable "vertical village", incorporating luxury residential apartments, government offices, a "global" cinema, independent book and pop-up stores, cafes and bars. What's not to love? What about the design? It's so cutting edge it should come with a warning. Guests enter the hotel via a grand stairway of floating timber, some of it salvaged from the site the hotel was built on and an old sports court. Industrial materials, most prominently concrete, are used throughout the property. The concierge desk and the wall behind it are created from Ultrafloor (a concrete used in car parks) arranged as cleverly stacked beams, with the aggregate left exposed. Ditto, the ceiling of the lobby/dining room (pictured), which is simple bare concrete with circular voids cut into it to reveal the tree-fern garden in the atrium above.
