Congratulations to Fender Katsalidis and the wider project team on 1 Hotel Melbourne receiving both the Hotel of the Year, New Build and the prestigious Paul Davis Award at the Australasia Pacific Hotel Design Awards.
Part of the broader Seafarers precinct, the project brings together adaptive reuse, sustainability and contemporary design along Melbourne’s waterfront, creating a significant addition to the city’s built environment.
EBSA is proud to have contributed to the development with our award-winning MP2 Opposed Opening Louvre system (MP2-FL-OP), developed specifically for the project over a two-year collaboration process. Designed to maintain unobstructed views while delivering high-performance natural ventilation and weather protection, the system was integrated across both the hotel and residential components of the precinct.
The MP2-FL-OP was engineered to support the architectural intent of the façade while achieving strong environmental performance, with advanced dual-blade operation, low air infiltration and high water resistance.
Congratulations to FK, Riverlee and all project partners involved in this well-deserved recognition.
