Casselden Lobby

Located on the corner of Spring and Lonsdale streets, Casselden sits as a landmark commercial offering within the wider Spring Place precinct – a collection of 3 buildings interconnected by a bustling central laneway and pocket park. Located in close proximity to some of Melbourne’s most beautiful gardens, we drew on this inspiration to deliver a fresh and welcoming revitalisation of Casseldens ground plane with improved connection and engagement with the buildings occupants and the wider Spring Place precinct. The design proposal focuses on the buildings ground floor, promoting an open and warm interior atmosphere.

New access points were created, including a direct link to the neighbouring 271 Spring St, as well as improving access and visibility of Madame Brussels Ln and Pocket Park. A series of flexible spaces including lounges, informal meeting spaces and tech driven town hall and conference rooms were added to activate the peripheral zones while the main foyer delivers an impactful entry to the building, refining and reinvigorating existing details of the architecture and housing concierge services and casual lounge spaces.
