Hutchies is pleased to see current outbreaks around Australia are being managed well thanks to the great response from affected communities. Construction remains an essential services industry during the current 3 day lockdown across Greater Brisbane and Hutchies’ projects will be open tomorrow (Monday). We are following all of the requirements announced by the Queensland Government, including wearing masks on site when it is safe and practicable to do so. For more relevant COVID-19 information, head to subbies.hutchies.com.au

Hutchies' Christmas Shutdown Notice. The majority of Hutchies’ sites and offices will be closed from 12pm today until Monday 4 January 2021. Feel free to get in touch with us over the break via social media, otherwise to all of our company members, clients, consultants, subbies, suppliers, friends and family: Merry Christmas and here’s to a great 2021!

We need your help! @aeioufoundation's Triple Impact Day is ending in about 17 hours and is around $40k short of its $300k target. We are grateful for the amount of donations received so far, with a huge thanks to those who have already contributed. For those that missed it, Hutchies is tripling any donation received to our page (link in bio) by the end of the Triple Impact Day for AEIOU to bolster support services and resources for children with autism.

Hutchies is supporting @aeioufoundation's Triple Impact Giving Day by tripling any amount received via our donation page by this Wednesday 9 December (link in bio). AEIOU is one of Australia’s leading providers of early intervention for young children with autism, with a vision of supporting each child to live their best life. With all that has happened this year, AEIOU were forced to cancel most of their fundraising activities and are relying on these donations to keep supporting children with adequate services and resources. We really appreciate your help! Pictured is the #hutchiesbuilt AEIOU Bald Hills Centre.

The National Chapter of the Master Builders Awards will be here in just a few hours’ time! Master Builders will be streaming the awards via their Facebook page and Youtube at 7.30pm AEDT so be sure to jump on and watch (link in bio). We are thrilled to be in the running for three national awards, especially as we celebrate a century of membership with Master Builders this year!

The Australian Institute of Building National Awards will be kicking off very soon, via the AIB live stream on Youtube tonight at 7PM AEDT (link in bio). Hutchies was fortunate enough to pick up some great accolades across the country at the state awards, including major awards in QLD for Vue Broadbeach (pictured) and Brisbane Skytower, in NSW for West End Residences, and in VIC for RMIT Capitol Theatre. Check them all out on our website. We’re excited to see what unfolds tonight at the National Awards!

Last week, Hutchies celebrated NAIDOC 2020 by hosting several COVID-Safe events across Australia, both in our offices and on our sites. In support of QATSIF, we worked in partnership with Australian Unity to hold Funky Friday Fundraisers, inviting our people, subbies and clients to wear their most outrageous shirt and bring a gold coin donation. The day was fun and filled with colour as people went about their daily tasks dressed in their Friday bests. Together Hutchies and Australian Unity raised over $2000 to go towards the great work that the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Foundation (QATSIF) does to support our Indigenous community. Pictured here is our Townsville Team displaying the Indigenous flags proudly on site. Always Was, Always Will Be.

These two projects could not be more different, but they have something very special in common! Both helped Hutchies make history on Friday night, where we were the first builder to take out both Project of the Year for Brisbane Skytower and House of the Year for Domic (Seaview Terrace) respectively at the QLD MBA Awards in their 33-year history. The result is testament to the careful, quality-focused approach of our construction teams who built these projects, and we couldn’t be happier with the result. Well done to all involved.

A big congratulations to our Sydney Team and client @roxypacificholdings for taking out the Professional Excellence Award for Residential Construction $50M and above at the New South Wales & Hong Kong Professional Excellence in Building Awards, which live-streamed on Friday. The winning project, West End Residences, is a standout residential precinct, comprising two striking buildings, courtyards and communal rooftops. Located at 6 Elger Street, Glebe, the completely new build is situated upon the former Brickworks site. Designed by @TurnerStudio, the two buildings pay homage to the industrial inner-city Sydney suburbs of Glebe and Ultimo, along with the site’s brickmaking past by featuring arches, metalwork, corbelling and three different forms of bricks, totaling 485,652 individual units.

Hutchies’ Castle Residences project recently undertook the first phase of the truss installation weighing almost 60 tonnes! The trusses were installed 67 metres in the air off the side of a lift core. These trusses form the backbone that allows the next 25 levels to cantilever out 12 metres over the 142 year old heritage-listed Porter House building below. The careful planning of the truss delivery took 12 months to coordinate to ensure it was a success, involving oversized loads and overnight CBD road closures. The remainder of the steel structure will be installed over the next 4 weeks bringing the total weight of the truss structure to over 150 tonnes! Hutchies is thrilled to be working with United Development Sydney on Castle Residences, their flagship luxury mixed used development bringing together high-end apartments with five-star luxury hotel services and amenities. We’re also proud to be delivering another major heritage restoration project, entailing high quality detail, complexity and vertical scale all within the busy inner-city of Sydney.

Hutchies “topped out” Ipswich Central last Friday with Ipswich Mayor Teresa Harding and our MD Greg Quinn marking the occasion. The new council administration building and children’s library has officially reached its full height, changing the skyline for the better and creating a modern and vibrant CBD for the people of Ipswich. Mayor Harding said the completion of the building’s structure was an important step forward for council’s $246M Nicholas Street redevelopment. “The council administration building and children’s library is due for completion in the second half of 2021, but the community will see other parts of the development open and ready to go before then … The topping out of this new building signifies that we are one step closer to reopening the heart of the city back to the community.” Find out more about the project on our website here: https://l.hutchi.es/93g (link in bio) ▪︎▪︎▪︎ #hutchies #hutchiesbuilt #hutchinsonbuilders #ipswichcentral #ipswichcentralcivicproject #nicholasst #ipswichcbd #ipswichcitycouncil #commercial #mixeduse #toppingout #ipswich #queensland #australia #building #architecture #construction

The recently constructed Cairns Airport T2 Domestic Terminal Upgrade is up and running and shinier than ever before. The vital revamp now provides visitors with a world-class airport experience by undertaking imperative terminal layout works to reduce congestion and increase the capacity of the security screening area, plus providing up to 2,000m² of new retail and dining areas. The significant upgrade has also future-proofed the terminal, catering for up to 10 years of forecast passenger growth, with options to expand further in the future. Hutchies is privileged to have been involved in upgrading a vital gateway to all that Far North Queensland has to offer.

Third time lucky! We managed to bag a hat trick on Friday night, with Project of the Year for Northcliffe Residences at the 2020 Master Builders Gold Coast Regional Housing & Construction Awards, along with the Residential Building (high-rise over 3 storeys) over $20M category. The judges were drawn to Northcliffe Residences for its degree of difficulty in gaining access for deliveries, and the quality of finish throughout the building. “This project is an exceptional example of modern design combined with major engineering challenges. A brilliant result for both builder and client.” Congrats to everyone involved in this project and we can’t wait for the State Awards later in the year! #hutchies #hutchiesbuilt #hutchinsonbuilders #northclifferesidences #masterbuildersqueensland #mbaawards20 #projectoftheyear #highrise #highriseconstruction #residential #goldcoast #surfersparadise #queensland #goldcoastcontruction #australia #building #architecture #construction (photography by @wandering_architect)

Wow another Project of the Year! Hutchies is overjoyed to have won five awards on Friday night at the livestreamed 2020 Master Builders Downs & Western Regional Housing & Construction Awards. Centenary Heights SHS Performing Arts Centre had a great night taking out Project of the Year as well as the Education Facilities up to $10M category. Here’s what some of the judges had to say about it: “An incredible amount of detail contained within this impressive building makes this entry stand out. The end product presents a fully functional school facility with an attractive and detailed facade. The performance space with retractable seating and the ability to be separated into various areas by full height acoustic walls makes this building highly flexible in its use.” Congratulations to all the other builders, projects and individuals that were recognised at the awards and well done to the team on Centenary Heights SHS Perfoming Arts Centre! #hutchies #hutchiesbuilt #hutchinsonbuilders #centenaryheightsshs #chshsperformingartscentre #masterbuildersqueensland #mbaawards20 #projectoftheyear #education #downsandwestern #toowoomba #queensland #toowoombaconstruction #australia #building #architecture #construction

Hutchies was stoked to see The Fantauzzo win not one but two awards in the last month! SJB was awarded The Beatrice Hutton Award for Commercial Architecture at the 2020 AIA Queensland Architecture Awards virtual presentation on Thursday July 9. We’re delighted as always to have constructed a project that receives recognition at the awards, and we’ve always been a great advocate of recognising architects, having sponsored the AIA Queensland Awards since 1989. On Friday night we also took out the Tourism and Leisure Facilities over $10 million Award at the 2020 Master Builders Brisbane Regional Housing & Construction Awards. Another great achievement for The Fantauzzo! A big thank you to AIA and Master Builders Queensland for putting in the hard work and making these events possible online and congratulations to all the other winners.

On Friday night Hutchies was awarded Project of the Year and Residential Building (high-rise over 3 storeys) over $20 million at the 2020 Master Builders Brisbane Regional Housing & Construction Awards. Here’s what some of the judges had to say: “We were impressed with the amount of overall planning that went into the Skytower project by Hutchinson Builders and their team. They took this difficult project successfully through the construction phase and then obtained the quality of workmanship and co-ordination of the high quality of finishes required to achieve the status of the magnificent Brisbane landmark it is today.” As always Hutchies is humbled to be considered for these accolades. A big shout out to everyone involved in the creation and success of Skytower and congratulations to all the other winners!
