Russell Crowes Loudly About Dark Arts Academy in g2's Recent Refurb.

A tweet from Russell Crowe has brightened our daily grind here at the g2 office.

Dubbing The Dark Arts Coffee Academy as "Coffs Harbour's hidden gem" Russell has put this new commercial premises in g2's recently completed Grafton St laneyway development on the map. 

Dark Arts Coffee Academy is one of the commercial tenancies occupying the newly opened Club 300 Arcade- the recently activated laneway connecting Grafton St to Cox Lane and underpinning the newly refurbished Club 300 Bowling and Bar. 

An edgy Melbourne-style cafe tucked within this laneway, Dark Arts Coffee Academy is quickly becoming renowned in the local community and beyond for its brewed beverages, creative cuisine, and edgy steampunk aesthetic.

Gaining a mention in the Sydney Morning Herald's 'Domain' Russell's tweet about Dark Arts Coffee Academy has certaining got the local Coffs community and our g2 office frothing with excitement. 

g2 Bowled Over- Club 300 Arcade Launch Coverage in Advocate

With a coffee in one hand and a copy of Wednesday's advocate in the other, the g2 team have taken a moment to celebrate the official launch of the Club 300 Bowl Arcade.

A complex and multifaceted project, Club 300 Bowling and Bar and the associated Arcade has signified a considerable design investment for the g2 architects team. Important for its prominence in the Coffs CBD, its many commercial tenancies, and its activation of pedestrian thoroughfares within the Coffs Harbour CBD Master Plan, this project has undergone several iterations, and required our design team to face and overcome challenges and constraints.

The g2 team is delighted to see this Grafton St project come to fruition. Club 300 Bowling and Bar now provides an exemplary bowling experience, with lift accessibility, synthetic lanes, air-conditioning, bar, catering, and a VIP lounge, making it an ideal venue for professional and recreational bowlers alike.

We wish Club 300 Bowling and Bar and its neighbours, the very best of success following the Arcades' official launch. Ann, Oliver and the g2 team will be sure to drop in for a bowl and a cocktail at Club 300 Bowling and Bar, indulge in a latte and lunch at Dark Arts Coffee Academy, and may potentially finance the outing with a trip to Coffs Harbour Pawn Brokers.    

There is more work coming within this building and the Cox Lane area so watch this space!

An 'Architect' is Born

Oliver is now an Architect!

It only took seven years of university, two degrees, ten years of industry experience, (some procrastination), and an APE, but g2 is proud to announce that Oliver Gee is now a registered Architect.

Previously operating as a "Graduate Architect", Oliver can now legally use the title "Architect", can undertake projects without supervision, and can provide services on large multi-story developments.

For those of you who are interested THE NSW ARCHITECTS REGISTRATION BOARD tells us that the use of the title "architect" is strictly regulated. In order to be deemed an architect a person must have: achieved a university qualification in architecture (or equivalent); logged a minimum of 3300 hours of supervised work experience covering each mandatory competency; pass the Architectural Practice Examination; and attain approval from the Registration Board.  

We are very proud of Oliver for this impressive achievement, and look forward to his architectural future.
