Exell Street Multi-Unit Industrial

A multi-unit industrial development on a technically challenging, flood-prone site. Designed for heavy-vehicle access, operational efficiency and long-term resilience. A flexible, functional complex that balances practicality with thoughtful site planning.

Located on a flood-prone zone, this project in Banksmeadow transformed a challenging site into a 14-unit industrial complex with thoughtful design, high function and strong street presence.

We raised the site level to allow water to flow safely over and through the grounds, creating a resilient foundation in a flood-vale zone. Each of the 14 units has full truck access, supported with underground parking that goes beyond minimum council requirements. Vehicle paths are designed for forward manoeuvring, improving both safety and efficiency for large rigid vehicles and semi trailers. The sub-floor is ‘tanked’ below flood level, equipped with sump and pump-back systems that exceed standard compliance.

On the human side of the project, each unit features a separate street-facing commercial entry and dedicated office area, ensuring flexibility and a professional presence. The design also retains established casuarina trees at the site exit to Exell Street — vital habitat for native black cockatoos — maintaining a consistent street identity and respecting the local ecology.

Each factory unit has a separate commercial entry and office area. All of the established Casuarinas, a vital food source to the local Black Cockatoos, were retained and improved.
