5 Parramatta Square (also referred to as PHIVE) is a community, cultural and civic hub in Parramatta, New South Wales, Australia designed by French architect Manuelle Gautrand.[1] Characterized by its vibrant red and orange tessellated roof, it represents a significant investment in the city's infrastructure, with construction costs amounting to $136 million. Spanning six levels, PHIVE includes a range of facilities such as a new library, maker spaces, tech labs, sound studios, community meeting rooms, visitor services, and Council Chambers.[2][3][4]
Design[edit]
The building's unique aesthetic features over 549 tessellated panels in colors inspired by native flora, alongside a design that maximizes natural light through its crystalline, fragmented structure. Equipped with smart technology, including giant louvres that adjust to weather conditions for natural ventilation, PHIVE embodies modernity while maintaining a connection to the heritage-listed Parramatta Town Hall. The design prioritizes openness and expressiveness, offering tours to the public to explore its innovative and welcoming space.[5]
