悉尼火车站的新运营中心由建筑事务所Jacobs和建筑事务所Smart Design Studio共同设计完成。该项目的设计要求十分明确——它要求在一个开放的商业工作空间内设置一个大型的控制室，且这个控制室必须是以实墙围合而成的，同时能够满足顶部照明的要求。这对于建筑师来说其实是一个绝佳的机会，因为他们可以去设计一座独一无二的建筑。因此，最终的建筑体量不仅积极地回应了城市中心绿色广场（Green Square）作用下的新城市肌理，更完美地展现了其作为铁路基础设施的功能意义。
The new Rail Operations Centre for Sydney Trains was designed by Jacobs in association with Smart Design Studio. The concept for the building was borne from a very specific brief, which called for a vast top-lit, solid-walled control room atop several floors of open commercial workspace. This presented an opportunity to create a unique building that positively contributed to the new urban fabric of the Green Square city centre, expressing its function as a piece of railway infrastructure.

出于对结构支撑和安全的考量，整个功能空间都被笼罩在一个巨大的砖石体量之下。为了在视觉上削弱巨大的建筑体量的存在感，同时建立建筑与周围街道的关系，建筑师在体量的北立面和东立面上分别设置了跨度为40米和50米的大型拱形开口。这两个拱形不仅可以起到横梁的作用以支撑上部厚重的砖墙荷载，还使得建筑可以在底层开洞以增加其通透性。

The entire form has been enclosed within a massive masonry wall for structural support and security. To moderate the building’s mass and to create connections with the surrounding streets, there are large arched openings in the north and east facades spanning forty metres and forty five metres respectively. These work as substantial beams supporting the heavy brick walls above, and allowing glazed openings at the base.

该建筑由当地的红砖打造而成，远远望去，与当地的仓库、悉尼的历史建筑和澳大利亚的红土建筑有着异曲同工之妙。砖砌结构的普遍性和其为人熟知的表面纹理将作为建筑语言，赋予这个规模非凡的建筑物一种独一无二的特征。
The building is clad in locally made red brick that’s redolent of the dominant colour of local warehouses, Sydney’s historical buildings and Australia’s red earth. The commonplace nature of brickwork and its familiar texture have been used as a counterpoint to the extraordinary scale of the architectural gestures that will define this building’s identity.

在本项目中，最重要的功能空间之一便是一个宽敞的中央控制室，它肩负着统筹所有重要工作的使命。因此，设计团队在南侧设置了一个最大的显示屏幕，通过这个屏幕，管理员们便可以监测和控制所有的铁路网络。高高的天花板上安装着一系列如发光顶篷一般的长方形天窗，阳光透过天窗洒进布局灵活的室内空间，营造出一种柔和的氛围。
An expansive control room was required to centralise all the critical operations teams. The largest screen in the Southern Hemisphere has been incorporated, enabling the controllers to monitor the network. The high ceiling is punctuated by integrated skylights that perform like a luminous canopy directing natural light over the flexible working environment.
