Melbourne Jet Base的愿景是为高收入的个人、外国政要、名人及体育明星等提供最高水平的入境和离境体验，保证服务、安全性和隐私性远在商业航空公司的水平之上。

Melbourne Jet Base seeks to redefine the entry and departure experience for high net worth individuals, foreign dignitaries, celebrities and sports stars who demand level of service, security and privacy well beyond what is available in a commercial airline terminal.

该项目位于墨尔本国际机场的一个策略性的位置，拥有24小时运营的全长跑道、两个配有地面辅助空间的超大型飞机库、内部海关边检通道、宽敞的飞行员服务区域、功能空间以及可媲美世界最奢华酒店大堂的高端客用设施。

Situated in a discreet location at Melbourne International Airport Tullamarine, the facility boasts 24 hr access to full length runways, two expansive hangars with ancillary ground support spaces, in-house customs and immigration screening, generous pilot support areas, function spaces and high-end guest facilities more akin to the World’s finest luxury hotel lobbies.

机翼般的造型为建筑赋予了优雅而独特的感觉，结构上使用了与航空相关的材料，整体展示出地面与天空之间的诗意张力。气氛温馨的室内空间选用了具有澳大利亚风格的材料、纹理和配色，能够为旅途中的宾客提供一个平静而舒适的环境。

Melbourne Jet Base’s architectural expression is defined by its elegant and iconic wing form, articulated using aviation inspired materiality and a play on the poetic tension of earth and sky. Conversely, the warm interior spaces embrace a uniquely Australian palette of materials, textures and colours, designed to both calm and comfort those in transit.

2019年7月，该项目获得了维多利亚建筑奖的商业建筑奖。评审团对它的评价是：“Melbourne Jet Base从常规的机库和A形工业构架中脱颖而出，成为墨尔本航空场景中令人耳目一新的存在。”

In July 2019, Melbourne Jet Base was celebrated with a Victorian Architecture Award in the Commercial Architecture category. Commended by the jury for being a shining star amongst mundane airplane hangars and industrial A-frame sheds, ‘the Jet Base in Tullamarine provides a refreshing addition to [Melbourne’s] aviation scene.’

“项目的任务书强调了安全方面的要求，这从一定程度上增加了设计的难度。Cox Architecture的方案引入了高度复杂和特殊的建筑形式，以一种美观而轻松的方式回应了以上挑战，最终交出了值得借鉴和褒奖的优秀成果。

‘The project’s brief, along with its security and safety requirements, presents a degree of complexity that would have tested most design teams. Cox Architecture articulated these elements with beauty and ease within a highly complex and striking form, delivering a project that deserves reward and recognition.’
