We have previously reported that one of our company's outstanding projects, the Rozelle Interchange in Australia, won a regional award for being one of the best investments in its category. Now, this project has earned another prestigious recognition. The winners competed at a national level, and we can proudly say that, thanks to bim.GROUP, this iconic urban masterpiece has secured its place among Australia's top projects.
A total of 48 state and territorial winners competed at the 2024 Australian Steel Institute (ASI) National Steel Excellence Awards in six categories. This year’s competition featured incredibly strong submissions and excellent investments, and the Rozelle Interchange triumphed in the “Small Buildings under $10 Million” category, bringing home the victory.
bim.GROUP proudly contributed to the realization of the Rozelle Interchange project, led by Studio Chris Fox. Our team's task was to model the steel structures and create manufacturing documentation, as part of a truly international team. The client, structural partners, subcontractors, and manufacturers came from various parts of the world, including Australia, Germany, and India. The result is an impressive steel structure that blends the ecological systems of the past, present, and future, perfectly integrating with the natural and urban environment of Rozelle Bay in Australia.
“This is the most outstanding work of my 21-year career. A particularly valuable experience was seeing how differently designers are viewed on the other side of the world compared to here. They are seen as problem solvers rather than a necessary evil. Here, the designer’s word was law, and no one even considered questioning it. I’ve never received as much respect from any partner on any of my other projects as I did from the Australian and German partners on this one,” said Gábor Boros, Manufacturing Design Group Leader, reflecting on the project.
