Great biomedical research needs the right environment to thrive.
Gray Puksand has transformed Macquarie University’s South Wing at 2 Innovation Road into a contemporary research environment dedicated to bio-innovation and study.
Through a considered adaptive reuse approach, the former office building has been repurposed to support the complex demands of biomedical research, bringing together clinical trial facilities, contemporary workplace settings, and adaptable PC2 laboratories.
Working closely alongside Macquarie University @macquarieuni and FDC Construction & Fitout, Gray Puksand acted as Executive Architect throughout the design development, documentation, and delivery phases.

100 Melbourne Street Brisbane has been shortlisted in the Workplace Under 1000sqm category for the 2026 @ausdesignreview IDEA Awards, recognising workplace/commercial projects that demonstrate strong spatial planning, sustainability and originality within a compact footprint.
This standout project transforms a former single tenant office into a multitenant workplace with shared arrival and social spaces. Retaining elements of the existing staircase supported a more sustainable approach to the fitout while encouraging incidental moments of connection throughout the workplace.
Drawing from the social character of South Brisbane’s historic Greek clubs, the design references the idea of the plateia, a shared gathering space that supports interaction within the workplace. The redesigned floorplates were stripped back to create adaptable, move in ready spaces capable of accommodating multiple tenants per level, enabling a more resilient and future-focused commercial offering.
Green marble finishes and commissioned artwork by Brisbane-based artist Jess Sellinger contribute to a warm and layered interior expression.

28 Greengate has officially broken ground, marking an important milestone for @newepping’s Greengate Work Precinct.
Designed by Gray Puksand for @riverleegroup the strata office development has been conceived as “a building in the landscape,” responding to its setting alongside Edgars Creek through permeable frontages, generous planting, and strong connections to the public realm.
At the center of the project is a 650sqm+ Northern Plaza with outdoor workstations and informal meeting spaces designed to support flexible working throughout the day.
Designed in the round to respond to its prominent position within the precinct, 28 Greengate combines a contemporary architectural expression with a human-scaled approach connected to the street and surrounding landscape.

What if your workplace could work harder for your people and your business?
Our refurbishment for @aglenergy transformed 19,000sqm into a smarter, more connected workplace designed to support collaboration, wellbeing and hybrid working at scale.
Driven by the ‘Empowered Ecosystem’ narrative, the project pairs seamless technology integration with sustainable design outcomes, including the reuse of 80% of existing loose furniture.
The workplace includes:
• Focus and collaboration zones
• Soundproof phone booths
• Wellness spaces including a Zen room, prayer room and carer’s room
• Smart technology for seamless day-to-day working
• Refurbished workstations and reused furniture to reduce waste
The result? A future-focused workplace that enhances performance, flexibility and everyday experience.

Sustainability and responsible design thinking informed the refurbishment approach at every level at 69 Ann Street, shaping an outcome focused on retention, longevity and long-term value.
Existing floor and wall finishes, façade canopy and podium areas were carefully retained and refinished, reducing material waste while extending the life of the building’s original architecture.
The project also celebrates Australian design and craftsmanship, featuring Indigenous artwork by Brad Turner within the café alongside furniture pieces by Melbourne-based designer Dean Norton throughout the lounge spaces.
Rather than complete replacement, the project demonstrates how adaptive refurbishment can deliver meaningful transformation through thoughtful intervention. Sustainable laminates, refinished timber elements and carefully selected finishes were incorporated throughout to support a more responsible material approach.
Together, these elements contribute to a contemporary workplace experience that feels refined, connected to place and authentically Brisbane.

In our latest Insight, Senior Associate Ben Wilkie explores how experience-led design, targeted upgrades and shared amenity are helping existing buildings remain relevant, adaptable and engaging in a changing market.
The question is no longer just who moves, it’s who stays, and why.
