arete Australia was engaged to deliver an extension at the Moorabbin Magistrates Court, creating secure and supportive spaces for individuals experiencing family violence to access assistance and legal advice in a safe environment.
The project involved comprehensive structural and civil works, including upgrades to pre-cast panels, post-tensioned and reinforced concrete, as well as enhancements to essential electrical services, communications, fire, hydraulic, security, and AV systems. The fitout spanned the lower ground, ground, and mezzanine levels (Zones A and B), and included the installation of walls, ceilings, flooring, furniture, fixtures, and equipment designed to meet the specific requirements of a specialist family violence court.
Throughout the project, arete worked closely with court management to minimize disruptions to proceedings and implemented a detailed safety plan to ensure works were completed safely and on schedule. The result is a secure, purpose-built environment that supports those in need with the privacy, protection, and care they require.
