The architecture includes elaborate use of glass curtain walling in conjunction with stone and metal cladding, precast concrete panels and aluminium louvres, and has been designed to achieve a 5-star Green Star rating for the office component.

The intent with One East Melbourne was to construct one of the most prestigious office/residential complexes in Melbourne, with high-quality finishes throughout.

Davis Langdon Specification Services worked closely with the architect, ARM, and became an integral part of the documentation team. The specification related closely with the design drawings and schedules and helped to protect ARM’s design intent. The specification clearly defined the contractor’s responsibilities and deliverables, described the expectations of the architect and minimised the potential for variation claims.
