The interior environment provides a creative and collaborative workspace with open workstations and glazed office partitions allowing an abundance of natural daylighting.

The new office for Mountainview Cemetery respects the presence of existing plots and enhances the public services, the connection with the cemetery lands, historical plots and an existing war memorial.
