The largest end-of-trip in Australia. Stage one is open

at Barangaroo

 the three towers of International Towers Sydney lies TRIP. Australia’s largest premium end-of-trip facility. Named for its four pillars – Thrive, Refresh, Invigorate and Pause – TRIP has been designed as a destination in its own right, blending premium finishes with intuitive technology to deliver a seamless experience for the International Towers community. Once a dark, difficult-to-navigate basement, it has been completely reimagined as a wellness destination that transforms the beginning and end of the working day.

Every element has been designed around the user experience. TRIP features intelligent wayfinding that provides near real-time shower and locker availability to private shower suites. The two lounge spaces at either end of TRIP have bespoke water fountains crafted out of bronze by Australian sculptor Morgan Schmield. The grooming stations all include premium Dyson styling tools. There are generous lockers, a towel service, stretch zones, lush biophilic planting, designer lighting and furniture. Carefully crafted materiality combines to create a space that feels more like a luxury wellness retreat than an end-of-trip facility. The dedicated spaces to stretch and recover, means that TRIP reflects a broader shift in how workplace experiences are being redefined.

The transformation has been delivered beneath one of Australia’s busiest commercial precincts. Three towers. 25,000 workers. Ninety retail tenancies. Business as usual above and construction in full swing below.

Stage 1 is complete. Stage 2 is underway.

“We have delivered a very responsive interior layout that responds to the brief in an unorthodox, yet highly functional way and we are already seeing the positive impact this has for building tenants who are using the activated end-of-trip zone for their morning commute, lunch time gym and after work run,” says Todd.
