Fred Holt MArch ’06 and his firm, 3XN , have been selected as the World Building of the Year 2022 in the fifteenth annual World Architecture Festival for their Quay Quarter Tower in Sydney, Australia.

“The 206-meter tower, located close to the Sydney Opera House, is an office building arranged as a vertical village, creating a sense of community and providing spaces that focus on collaboration, health, well-being and external terraces. Constructed of five stacked shifting volumes, 3XN employed a radical sustainability strategy which involved upcycling the existing tower. The series of stacked atria create a social spine with exceptional views, while also allowing daylight deep into each floor.” – ArchDaily
