What Time & Place does
Time & Place Management Pty Ltd (ACN 661 939 804) is an Australian privately held property development company founded in 2015 by Executive Director Tim Price, headquartered in Melbourne with a Sydney office established in 2015. The company operates as a multi-sector developer across residential, commercial, mixed-use, industrial, and hospitality asset classes in Victoria and New South Wales, with a project portfolio that includes landmark residential towers (Victoria One at 75 storeys, Collins House at 59 storeys and Australia's slimmest tower), commercial precincts (Victoria Place in East Melbourne, Bourke and Bowden in Alexandria, Sydney), boutique industrial subdivisions in Laverton, and a hospitality offering anchored by Ace Hotel Sydney (the first Ace Hotel in the Southern Hemisphere, opened 2022) and Hannah St Hotel within The Queensbridge Building precinct.
The company delivers projects through a co-development and joint-venture model rather than a proprietary technology platform. It partners with capital providers (MaxCap Group, Qualitas) for development finance, builders (Hickory Group, Kapitol Group) for construction, and architecture firms (Bates Smart, fjcstudio, John Wardle Architects, Elenberg Fraser) for design. Revenue derives primarily from the sale of residential apartments and commercial strata offices to owner-occupiers and investors (one-time transaction), supplemented by commercial and retail leasing income within mixed-use precincts and recurring exposure to lifestyle hospitality through operator partnerships with Ace Hotel and TFE Hotels (Collections).
The go-to-market motion is direct-to-consumer for residential buyers (off-the-plan sales via project websites, enquiry forms, and expressions of interest) and direct-to-enterprise for commercial leasing and strata office sales. Branding emphasises design philosophy ('Modern Nostalgia') and selective media positioning (Broadsheet Home & Lifestyle foundation partner). Key strategic relationships include long-running co-development with Golden Age across multiple projects, anchoring Time & Place's integrated delivery model from site acquisition through design, construction, and completion.
