Town Square’s new office has its own fascinating heritage story, having been designed by Sir John Monash and built by David Mitchell, the father of Dame Nellie Melba who also built the Melbourne Exhibition Buildings.
The new location on the lands of the Wurundjeri Woi-wurrung and Bunurong Boon Wurrung peoples of the Eastern Kulin offers a more energy efficient and environmentally friendly space combining architectural character and natural light. In addition, being located in the heart of the city provides the team who live across greater Melbourne, Geelong and Ballarat, a more convenient location to collaborate.
Founder Danielle Moeller, said: “It’s been our privilege to work together in a building with the rare character and precious heritage of the old St Matthew’s Church Hall on High Street, Prahran. But all good things come to an end and this is an opportunity to embrace that change and build Town Square’s future growth as a dynamic and progressive agency in the heart of Melbourne.
“We were drawn to the vibrancy of Melbourne’s CBD and want to play our own small part to help rejuvenate the city centre after years of quiet streets, empty offices, closed cafes and restaurants. Most importantly, while we continue to offer flexible team working, our new location makes it easier for us to come together for the benefit of our people and clients.”
We collaborated with local interior designers Made For and furniture curators Wildflower to reimagine the space with a sense of contemporary playfulness while staying true to the building’s city loft aesthetic.
The new office comes off the back of two big recent hires in Chief Strategy Officer, Jeff Malone ex Cummins, TWA and MullenLowe, and Head of Art, Greg Beer ex Uncommon Studios, Mother and Wieden + Kennedy London.
