Powerhouse Parramatta
Parramatta NSW

Client: Infrastructure NSW

Our Managing Director, Gus Nainu held several key engagements during the early stages. The initial engagement with INSW involved acting as Technical Advisor during the international design competition phase, assessing shortlisted architectural schemes against the Stage 2 Brief, evaluation criteria, project risks, and the integration and performance of the proposed building engineering services.

Gus was subsequently engaged by Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences (MAAS) to further develop the Stage 2 Design Brief and prepare the Stage 3 Client Brief. This work helped guide the concept design development and ultimately formed the basis of the Functional Brief for the internationally acclaimed winning architectural team.

In a final engagement with Infrastructure NSW, Gus played a leading role as Brief Writer in preparing the Project Brief that ultimately formed the Principal’s Project Requirements within the Design & Construct contract package.
