Ashurst is a leading multinational law firm with deep roots in Australia, having shaped the local legal and business landscape since 1841. Their move to 80 Collins Street reflects a continued commitment to their clients, both national and global. Positioned among industry leaders and premium amenities, the location marks a strategic and symbolic shift.
Spread across three levels, the workplace – designed by award-winning architects Bates Smart – brings Ashurst’s values of agility, sustainability and collaboration to life. The design blends natural materials, soft curves, light and transparency to create a space that feels open, human, and inherently local. Traditional meeting rooms sit comfortably alongside shared zones and quiet work areas – reflecting a balanced, modern way of working.
At the centre of it all, a sweeping curved staircase connects the workplace both physically and culturally. Designed and constructed by Asentis, the stair makes a bold yet refined statement – crafted from curved steel plates and finished with warm timber handrails and seamless joinery. Encircled by key amenities and breakout spaces, it invites movement, conversation and connection – anchoring the space with elegance and intent.
