Software giant Atlassian is planning to build the world’s tallest timber tower at the southern end of the Sydney CBD.

NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian made the announcement today alongside Atlassian CEOs Scott Farquhar and Mike Cannon-Brookes.

Standing at 40 storeys, the skyscraper will transform the skyline because, for one, it will not adopt a traditional appearance. Ms Berejiklian said the new headquarters would help the capital rival California’s famous Silicon Valley. “Tech Central will rival Silicon Valley as the place to be. This means more jobs and opportunities for all of our citizens.”In a statement released today, the NSW Government said it was committed to facilitating 250,000 square metres of office space in the precinct, which will stretch from Central Station to Camperdown.“Technology and innovation are key planks of the government’s strategy to attract investment and create the jobs of the future for the people of NSW,” Ms Berejiklian said.

Highly complex skin will be difficult and expensive to clean in and out, so neglect will set in. All that green requires water and in times of drought that's a problem. High maintenance cost maintaining that green. No. This is the dream of idiots.

Main structure is steel.

Interesting, they rejected the proposal from Google in 2018.

Heaps of low millage solar panels imported from China, should keep the commies in gravy. Run a report on how environmentally friendly solar panel production is I dare you

Timber call might happen then once the termites find ways to eat it

Marvellous

It’s a lie. It will be a steel building with some token timber thrown in to fool idiot journalists into believing it’s the worlds tallest timber building.
