架构师提供的文本描述。西城水务(CWW)是一家可持续发展的水务企业，为当地社区提供创新服务。CWW将其总部迁至霍斯克雷，新的活动中心发展被称为FCAD。这对该组织来说是一个重大的文化转变，因为他们从总部位于阳光(一处独立的、单身的、偏远的设施)的总部迁到了租赁共享的大楼，作为承租人。

Text description provided by the architects. City West Water (CWW) is a sustainable water business, providing innovative services to their local community. CWW relocated their head office to Footscray, to the new activity centre development known as FCAD. This was a significant culture shift for the organisation, as they moved from their head office site in Sunshine, a self-owned, single occupancy, remote facility, to shared tenanted building, as a lessee.

通过积极参与，与社区的联系是有形的。这是一个完整的信息，城市西水想要在他们的新工作空间庆祝。

Connection with their community is tangible through active engagement. It was this message of integrity, City West Water wanted to celebrate in their new workspace.

提供互联的突破空间为工作环境提供了天然的枢纽。位于每个楼层的入口，通过一个开放的楼梯垂直连接，这些空间提供一个交替的工作环境和一个退步。考虑到CWW的业务是水，设计、外观和感觉都是基于水、液体、冰和蒸汽的自然状态。

The provision of interconnected breakout spaces provide the natural hub for the working environment. Located on the entry to each floor, connected vertically via an open stairway, these spaces offer an alternate work environment, and a retreat. Given CWW business is water, the design, look and feel is based on the natural states of water, liquid, ice and vapour.

三种不同的材料和颜色的调色板已经开发，包括天然材料，一个平静的单色基础与大胆的色彩。由此产生的设计是一个包含其社区，并创造了一个新的，反映了公司的文化愿望。

Three distinct palettes of materials and colours have been developed embracing natural materials, a calm monochromatic base with a bold splash of colour. The resulting design is one that embraces its community, and creates a new one, reflective of the company’s cultural aspirations.

绿色之星办公室内部工具是一个适合的设计框架，并在材料的选择，家具，室内种植，空调，照明选择和控制，以及配件和夹具的选择方面有影响力。重点是安装适当的节水装置，特别是因为水是公司的业务。

The Greenstar Office Interiors tool was used a design framework for the fit out, and was influential in selection of materials, furniture, indoor planting, air-conditioning, lighting selections and controls, and fitting and fixture selections. There was a focus on appropriate water saving fixtures being installed, especially due to water being the business of the company.
