THE DARLING
Sydney, NSW, Australia
The Darling is a 5 star 171 room hotel
located within Pyrmont and an iconic
addition to the adjacent ‘The Star'
entertainment complex. The design
clarifies and enhances public movement at
street level around and through the hotel
as well as through the adjacent complex.
The hotel lobby/atrium itself is treated
as a ‘through site' link with dual entries
– encouraging public permeability and
directly linking the lobby to the darling
harbour entertainment precinct. The
atrium contains active uses including
cafe, bars, restaurants which enhance the
public domain, encourage public use and
extend Union Street's relaxed café and bar
activity.
The carefully scaled podium relates
positively to the surrounding historic
streetscape via its extensive, robust but
contemporary use of sandstone; while the
tower presents a positive and memorable
form to Sydney Harbour, and particularly
in its iconic gesture towards the Pyrmont
Bridge pedestrian approach from the CBD.

Kuala-Lumpur, Malaysia
The Shangri-La Traders Hotel, Kuala
Lumpur is a contemporary 4-star 576-room
hotel in the world-class KLCC precinct.

allel to the park boundary, allowing for the
most advantageous solar orientation. Hotel

a 25m pool, gymnasium, business centre
and office space for administrative staff
and associated BOH amenities.

The level 33 Sky Bar is the hotel’s signature

recreation and entertainment level which
