Counterpoint Architecture partnered with Cox Architecture as the local architect for the Queensland Country Bank Stadium project, contributing from the earliest design competition phase through to the completion of construction.
Our role involved providing local knowledge, stakeholder engagement, project coordination, and architectural support throughout the design and delivery process. Working closely with the broader consultant team, contractors, government agencies, and stadium stakeholders, we helped ensure the project responded to the unique climate, culture, and aspirations of North Queensland.
The result is a world-class, 25,000-seat stadium that has become a landmark for Townsville and the region, delivering a vibrant venue for sport, entertainment, and major events while contributing significantly to the city's ongoing growth and revitalisation.
This project reflects Counterpoint's ability to successfully collaborate on complex, large-scale civic infrastructure projects and deliver outcomes that create lasting value for regional communities.
