Building Description:
Collins Place is a large complex that consists of two towers set at a 45-degree angle to Collins Street. Below these is a modest shopping complex and food court.
The two towers are modernist in their design and both approximately 50 storeys high. The top 15 floors of one of the towers is used as a hotel.
The central feature of the shopping complex below the towers are the two atria, which are supported by a massive 'space frame' that is illuminated at night.
