RACV’s Melbourne headquarters at 485 Bourke Street brings together 500 staff in a modern, centrally located workplace designed to support diverse work styles and foster collaboration. Spanning four levels, the building combines functional workspaces with design elements that promote wellbeing, community, and engagement. Outdoor-inspired materials, extensive greenery, and a ceiling treatment reminiscent of a pergola create a light, inviting environment that reflects RACV’s culture and values.
Central to the fitout is a striking steel-and-timber feature staircase, crafted by Asentis to connect levels seven, nine, and ten. Full-height steel rods form a screen linking the floors visually while maintaining openness, and integrated lighting highlights the stair as both a functional connector and sculptural focal point. Multiple additional staircases and balustrades across the four-level fitout further unify the space, encouraging movement and interaction throughout the building.
The new design has transitioned staff from a traditionally siloed workplace into an inclusive and integrated environment. By combining circulation, collaboration zones, wellness areas, and outdoor-inspired finishes, the fitout fosters connection, engagement, and a cohesive company culture. Asentis’ staircases not only enhance the functionality of the workspace but also act as defining elements that bring the design and the people together.
