Major contracts awarded
Edith Cowan University (ECU) has announced that a consortium of leading local, national and international architects will create the design for the $695 million ECU City Campus.
Australian architectural firm, Lyons, in partnership with international architects Haworth Tompkins and Perth-based Silver Thomas Hanley, have been announced as the successful team for the ECU City Campus, recognised as the centrepiece of the Perth City Deal.
Also appointed is global engineering company Stantec, and one of Australia’s largest providers of quantity surveying, Donald Cant Watts Corke, while Urbis will lead on town planning.
The appointments are some of the largest contracts to date, to come from the $1.5 billion Perth City Deal, which brings together the collaborative efforts of the Australian Government, Western Australian Government and City of Perth to help secure the long-term prosperity and liveability of Perth by enabling an energised and vibrant city centre.
