Case Studies

ANZ Adelaide Offices

In August 2023 XFrame delivered 24 rooms and over 750m2 of demountable, low-carbon and reconfigurable spaces for ANZ's new Head Office in Adelaide, South Australia. Working alongside the clients' representatives (APP Group) and Architects (Woods Baggot) we translated ANZ's retail kit-of-parts into a corporate office space designed for the future.

XFrame's on-site delivery speed and value-add circular design support allowed this project, run over six weeks, to be delivered on-time. 240 wall panels were installed across four days by a team of six trades people. Prefabricated Tasmanian Oak Veneer and Autex Cube linings were clipped to the wall frames in XFrame's first large-scale deployment of the XF010 demountable lining clip, and DBSORB's ReadyClip system.

390m2 of demountable modular ceiling panels enclosed the free-standing spaces, ensuring high preforming acoustics and true long-term flexibility.

Meridian Energy

Base Isolated. Heritage Category 1 Listed. Non-orthogonal spatial planning. Living Building Challange mandates. Full FSC Certification. Sovereign supply and manufacturing. Meridian Energy's 2024 re-fit of the Old Bank Arcade Building in Wellingtons central business district is a radical statement of intent, demonstrating the highest standards of sustainable office design.

Working alongside Unispace XFrame assisted in the design, off-site fabrication and installation of five high performance room-in-room meeting spaces in the central floor plate of the historic building.

ANZ Richmond

ANZ Richmond Business Cash Hub was upgraded in May 2024 to be in alignment with the new ANZ Breathe style of retail store. XFrame supplied and installed a 3.0m x 3.6m demountable meeting room into this branch across 3 days (allowing for service coordination and installation).

Booster Financial Services

Working with our friends at DBSORB Acoustic Systems we completed a set of 4x 1.8m square video conferencing rooms in Wellington’s CBD for Booster Financial Services. These spaces are adorned with 12mm PET acoustic panels cut with a rectangular groove pattern, and come fully equipped with building integrated A/C, fire, electrical and lighting.

Utilising XFrame’s 92mm wall frame and demountable multi-layer lining system these spaces can be removed and reconfigured with only minor make-good required.

WOTSO Liverpool

XFrame is greatful to have worked with the @wotsoflexspace team to assist in the supply of a uniquely styled modular window and wall panel solution for their new @wotso.liverpool location in Sydney.

These panels are 50% glazing - creating an abundance of natural light and openness in the coworking spaces. What's more, our modular panels mean that spaces can be easily reconfigured as tennant's needs change over time.

The extensive use of recycled @saveboardanz finishes enhances the feel of the space and ensured many kilo's of materials destined for landfill have been upcycled.

ANZ Docklands

Located in Melbourne's central business district, this is ANZ's Global Head Office branch and is the latest to be updated to the 'Breathe' design, which fully encapsulates ANZ's environmental and social sustainable vision, with modular panels and highly sustainable materials included throughout the branch.

XFrame supplied pre-assembled panels to site which included pre-finished feature Tasmanian oak wall linings, prefabricated acoustic ceiling linings, pre-finished back-of-house wall linings and bespoke blue-stained Tasmanian oak wall finishes.

Project commencement to project delivery was six weeks. One week was allocated to material procurement, a further four to factory works (panel fabrication and assembly, lining milling and clear-coating), and one week for installation.

ANZ Joondalup

Located on the northern edge of Perth's urban area, this is large ANZ Branch was delivered in mid 2023 following the ANZ Breathe Kit-Of-Parts. XFrame's scope included the supply and installation of three meeting rooms, modular planter boxes, and one larger secure space housing ATM and banking equipment.

XFrame supplied pre-assembled panels to site which included pre-finished feature Tasmanian oak wall linings, prefabricated acoustic ceiling linings, pre-finished back-of-house wall linings and bespoke blue-stained Tasmanian oak wall finishes.

Callaghan Innovation Flexible Workspaces

XFrame worked with PTL Engineers, Warren and Mahoney Architecture, and Hawkins to deliver XFrame internal partitions across three levels of Callaghan Innovations refit of their library building.

Deployed partitions were a mixture of 2.4m and 3m high panels, adorned with 12mm Autex PET linings (with a grooved face pattern). These linings were clipped over two layers of acoustic backing material to ensure acoustic privacy between rooms.

Panels were mounted to deal with the high seismic requirements of the region – including a deflection head system. Panels were also designed to permit the mounting of AV systems across spaces.

XFrame operated a supply only model for this project – supplying pre-assembled partitions directly to the main contractor for installation.

ANZ Springvale

Located in Melbourne's South Eastern suburbs ANZ Springfield is a large retail banking branch. The branch was renovated in late 2022 to align with ANZ's Breathe retail experience. XFrame was engaged to supply and install modular wall panels for four meeting rooms and the ATM bunker.

XFrame supplied pre-assembled panels to site which included pre-finished feature Tasmanian oak wall linings, prefabricated acoustic ceiling linings, pre-finished back-of-house wall linings and bespoke blue-stained Tasmanian oak wall finishes.

Project commencement to project delivery was eight weeks. Two weeks were allocated to material procurement, a further four to factory works (panel fabrication and assembly, lining milling and clear-coating), one week for dispatch, and one week for installation.

ANZ Horsham

ANZ Horsham, located 300km west of Melbourne, adopted XFrames demountable modular wall and roofing framing. XFrame supplied pre-assembled panels to site which included pre-finished feature Tasmanian oak wall linings, prefabricated acoustic ceiling linings, pre-finished back-of-house wall linings and bespoke blue-stained Tasmanian oak wall finishes. XFrame also deployed modular wall framing for the ATM enclosure.

Notting Hill

XFrame was engaged to design and supply temporary free-standing wall-frames for a factory assembly space in Notting Hill, Victoria. XFrame could meet the unique requirements of the clients brief by supplying wall frames that could be easily assembled on-site with un-skilled labor and that did not require any fixings into the floor.

Nineteen 2100mm high wall panels lined with prefinished E0 particle-board were dispatched to the customer for DIY assembly and install.

ANZ Enfield

XFrame has provided ANZ with a unique solution to fulfil its vision of modular, reconfigurable and adaptable retail store offering, meeting the very highest standard of circular design.

Based on Breathe Architect’s design vision, XFrame has developed a custom fitout solution for ANZ’s retail stores to meet exact design specifications and finishes. Assembled off-site and comprising a series of modular walls and roof frames, ANZ’s meeting, kitchen and customer facing spaces are then rapidly installed on site. Panels are delivered with pre-installed recycled PET insulation, modular electrical wiring and FSC certified Tasmanian Oak Veneer linings. Installation of these rooms is completed within a matter of days.

two/fiftyseven

XFrame interior partitions were used in this co-working office fit-out to form light-weight office wall partitioning. Envisioning that changes may be needed to the space over time, XFrame was reversibly fixed to all the adjacent surfaces. Powder coated sheet metal wall linings in 600mm square diamonds were mounted to the frame using XFrame's in-house reversible pressure lining clip. These linings permitted an 8m long and 2.5m high magnetic whiteboard on all wall sides. The smaller panels also means that it is possible for building occupants to quickly make changes.

Studio 9

90mm XFrame parts were installed using a 'zero make-good' floor-to-wall and wall-to-ceiling fixing solution for a Studio 9 Architects' office expansion. This solution allowed the partitions to be installed without any penetrations through an epoxy sealed floor, meaning make-good is hassle-free when the partitions need to be removed. Both part height and full height wall frames were lined with a combination of 12mm Acoustic EchoPanel and 12mm European Birch Ply.

Cohab

Another commercial office fit-out using XFrame interior partitions, 70 XFrame panels that were 2.7m high were installed over the course of one week. Five different lining materials (12mm acoustic recycled PET, 12mm birch plywood, 12mm particle white board and 12mm polycarbonate) were prefabricated and installed using XFrame’s hidden pressure clips.

The entire fit-out was installed with minimal floor and ceiling penetrations, which will enable it to be removed and reused elsewhere in the future.

Assembly Three

Assembly Three Suite+ is an XFrame demonstration project currently under construction in Adelaide, South Australia. Designed to push the architectural limits of XFrame, this 75m2 mezzanine building is comprised of 3500 parts of XFrame, 180 of which are unique to the design.
