9 Molonglo Drive, Canberra Airport ACT 2609

9 Molonglo Drive is a contemporary, A-grade commercial building offering high-quality office accommodation with sound environmental credentials, access to natural light and views, basement and on-grade car parking, electric vehicle charging stations and generous end of trip facilities. With a total Net Lettable Area of 19,925m2, 9 Molonglo Drive has been designed to maximise workplace flexibility with each floor plate accommodating approximately 3,000 sqm of open office space arranged around a full-height atrium.

Positioned in a highly prominent location at the intersection of Molonglo Drive and Pialligo Avenue, 9 Molonglo is characterised by a textured façade that lends the building to a sculptural and dynamic quality. 9 Molonglo seeks to optimise access to natural light and vistas for all building occupants, facilitated by a central atrium. Softened corners, synonymous with other such gateway buildings within Brindabella Business Park, provides a strong yet inviting entry statement and are echoed throughout the building from the planning of floorplates to the design of interior elements, lighting and detailing. A generously glazed atrium allows natural light to penetrate through the centre of the building to a spacious ground-floor entry foyer, providing a visual connection between floorplates and access to filtered daylight from common areas and walkways. A considered building grid allows for the efficient use of floorplates designed to accommodate a variety of office fitout configurations and the opportunity to incorporate a centralised built zone to complement open-plan work areas without compromising access to natural light.

Key design features:

- Central glazed atrium promoting visual connectivity and penetration of natural light to all floors.
