BUSIFLY TOWER
The 'Busifly Tower' located in the centre of the Sydney CBD was designed specifically to conform to the physical and social restraints of the site. A great deal of thought had been implemented into the design process of the building, from the simple things like choosing the colour of the stairs to the interaction of the interior to the exterior. This dominating centralisation of the circulation system in the projects of Lippmann Partnership, an architectural firm based in Sydney, partially influenced the centralised (vs. segregated) circulation route of the tower, particular the Butterfly House in Dover Heights. As a typical business building whereby the activities going on inside are not to be seen by the general public, this significantly contributes to the reinvented architecture. The stairs begin on the 8th floor where there are less people, as all the office spaces are on the bottom levels. The people on the bottom levels will probably be the main users of the lifts as there are more people who need to go either up or down in groups. The lack of stairs also minimises the sound coming from people travelling up and down the stairs. The slightly opaque coloured ribbon windows allow for an interesting effect on the suns rays as it travels into the building and also appeals to the public.

'CIRCULATION' page


CIRCULATION
The simple yet thoughtful circulation design system of the building can clearly be assessed from the inside of the building. There are two distinct lifts clad in red stone which travel from the ground floor up to the highest floor, which the addition of several staircases running between each level from the 8th floor up.
To meet the requirements of the main users of the building, business employers who need to travel up to a particular floor in as shorter time as possible. The lifts are the perfect solution, but as soon as they have reached that floor and decide they need to go up or down one floor, they have the option of tkaing the stairs rather than waiting for the elevator which most probably will be used by the people who only entered the building.
