Powerhouse Parramatta sits on the banks of the Parramatta River, in Western Sydney, framed by the glass towers of the city’s fast-growing second CBD. The building was designed by Paris-based Moreau Kusunoki and local architect Genton, with Arup engineers. It is a second venue for the nearly 150-year-old museum of applied arts and sciences, 30 minutes by train from its central Sydney origins.
