Original Field of Architecture

Nestled between three generations of school buildings this two-storey roof top extension includes a multi-purpose Sports Hall, classroom and support facilities. The site is located at the intersection of a significant number of buildings which use different forms, materials and styles. This juxtaposition resulted in a design response that is a complex site sensitive solution. In having conversations with the adjacent buildings, the proposal is familiar yet distinctly original and engaging. The school campus consists of an eclectic range of academic institutional buildings. By linking the buildings together, the proposal promotes continuity and uniformity.
