Snowy Hydro, Sydney

The design builds on Snowy Hydro's values-focused culture and technical expertise to support a more connected, sustainable and resilient future.

Inspired by the seamless flow of water through Snowy Hydro's network, the new Sydney workplace is designed as 'The Grid' - a connected, adaptable system that powers collaboration and innovation.

Just as Snowy Hydro plays a vital role in delivering reliable, renewable energy to Australia, this workplace supports a high-performing, future-focused team. It optimises the movement of people, ideas and technology, driving efficiency, flexibility and resilience.

More than just a workplace, it's a place that reflects Snowy Hydro's purpose: harnessing the power of nature, engineering smart solutions, and shaping a more sustainable future.

Project details

Client: Snowy Hydro
Location: Sydney, NSW, Australia
Size: 2,000 sqm

Drawing inspiration from the Snowy Mountains, the colour palette reflects the natural hues and textures of the landscape - cool blues, soft whites, rugged greys and earthy tones.

Materials were chosen to evoke the serenity and vitality of this iconic region, bringing a sense of depth and calm that connects Snowy Hydro's mountain origins to its new Sydney CBD headquarters.

A series of dynamic and multi-purpose meeting spaces support a premium visitor experience.

From quiet zones designed for deep concentration, to open, shared spaces that encourage teamwork and spontaneous interaction, the layout responds to a wide range of working styles.

Aligned to Snowy Hydro's values-led culture, a generous breakout space offers a welcoming place to connect and recharge.

Designed for flexibility, it supports informal gatherings, quiet moments and casual work. Integrated technology and seamless connectivity make it a multi-purpose space that fosters wellbeing, inclusion and connection.
