The way we work is changing, and the workplaces we choose are evolving with it. Research from The University of Sydney shows that businesses and professionals have redefined their relationship with the office since the pandemic. Today, the office is more than a place to clock in. It needs to support hybrid work, encourage collaboration and promote wellbeing.¹
Hudson Hub, the fifth upcoming strata office development in Williams Landing, has been designed with these shifts in mind. As demand for modern office space increases across Melbourne, particularly in Melbourne's west, Hudson Hub represents a new generation of workplaces that are flexible, local and people-focused.
Located on Overton Road within the busy Williams Landing business precinct, Hudson Hub builds on strong demand for strata offices in the area. Its contemporary office suites sit within a thriving urban environment, giving businesses the opportunity to own or occupy space in one of Australia’s fastest-growing municipalities.²
Hybrid working takes centre stage
Hybrid working has become a defining part of modern professional life. Post-pandemic figures show that only 27% of office workers spend more than 30 hours each week in the office, compared with 69% before the pandemic.¹ Employees are seeking flexibility and businesses are looking for workplace models that can adapt.
The study also found that workers prefer modular spaces that can be easily adjusted to suit occupancy levels, activities and team needs. Hudson Hub supports this with flexible floorplates and a strata office model that allows owners and occupiers to tailor their space. Whether a business needs an open collaborative layout or private zones, the suites can be adapted accordingly.
Ranging from 40 m² to 109 m², the suites cater to a mix of users, from start-ups to established businesses seeking long-term offices in Melbourne's west. A communal conference room, nearby cafés and retail further support a hybrid work environment, helping people balance work and life throughout the day.
Designed for wellbeing and connection
Workplaces increasingly need to support wellbeing as well as productivity. Hudson Hub incorporates a range of design elements that recognise the impact of the physical environment on how people feel at work.
Abundant natural light, quality ventilation and welcoming communal areas create a sense of openness that workers value.¹ A rooftop terrace with panoramic views over Williams Landing adds to the experience, offering a space for informal gatherings, client meetings or simply taking a break.
End-of-trip facilities such as secure bike storage, showers and change rooms encourage active commuting. Access to nearby green spaces and lifestyle amenities also supports healthier routines and a stronger sense of community.
Local hubs over city commutes
Many professionals no longer see long commutes to the CBD as necessary. Instead, workers are choosing local office hubs that offer convenience and a better work-life balance. The study found that people are increasingly willing to relocate to a higher quality office environment and favour more decentralised workplace models.¹
Hudson Hub responds to this shift by offering a premium strata office opportunity in Melbourne's western corridor. For those living in the region, it provides an alternative to the city commute while helping build strong local business networks within the Williams Landing commercial precinct.
The future of workplaces in Melbourne's West
Hudson Hub has been designed to support businesses at their best. By combining flexibility, wellbeing-focused amenities and a central position within the Williams Landing Business Precinct, it reflects the direction that modern workplaces in Melbourne's west are heading.
