Our client required a community hub in close proximity to an existing library and church. The request was for there to be a combination of flexible community spaces and Councillor NGO offices.
We proposed a two storey building that included multi-function open spaces on the ground floor. A number of NGO offices, board rooms and Councillor offices were proposed for the first floor.
The orientation of the building demanded sensitivity due to the church and library being so close together. A number of passive green principles were also included within the building design. Courtesy of Complete Urban.

PREP FACILITY
The client requested a two classroom prep facility for pre-school children with central service such as kitchen and art room spaces. Outside, we provided spaces that includes play equipment and sand pits under a sail roofed areas. The roofed sails were modelled and placed in such a way to provide maximum protection from the sun during play times.
The building is a very simple and functional form that became an asset for the school to accommodate pre-school kids. The design support spaces flowing from the inside of the two large classrooms to the outside play area, while sharing the functional central spaces.
Although the outside space is fenced and separated from the remainder of the school, it is visually well connected with the rest of the school. Courtesy of Elevation Architecture Studio
