Its position at the plaza commanded considered integration into the existing and newly established urban grid, and the opportunity to overlay an indigenous narrative. Warrawal Nánga means Milkyway dreaming, and was inspired by the constellations, and the navigational travel lines that connected places and guided the Boorooberongal people to traverse across the mountains to sustain families and community

Additional to this indigenous narrative is the overlay of our landscape strategy, which is inspired by the six seasons of the Dharug, and how they influenced community, flora, fauna, and travel patterns. The led to the opportunity for endemic species, colours and scents to celebrate each season.

The four key conceptual principles and the connection to the newly created Warrawal Nánga Place drove the massing articulation of the built form above. The podium took cues from the form of the ground plane and became a threshold between private and public space. The massing of the tower volume over was divided into proportional blocks that sculpted to the form of the ground plane and cascaded in height around Warrawal Nánga Place and Station Plaza, giving gravitas to the conceptual principle of placemaking and elevational hierarchy. The orientation and position of the built form also integrated with the established and future urban grid at the macro level, and program, amenity, and user journey at the micro level.

The final element came in the form of the façade, which speaks to the conceptual principle of layering and is inspired by local geological forms and local historic materiality. Each layer of materiality builds on the anticipation of rhythm, and the journey from Station Plaza to Warrawal Nánga Place, allowing for a look and feel which is a balance of individuality and a sense of togetherness.
