The brief called for a connected campus that is integrated within the fabric of city in a legible and permeable fashion to create a ‘sticky’ campus with places for students that “foster a strong sense of an academic community, with an emphasis on spaces that enable collaboration and communication”.
The podium is divided into a number of spaces both secured within the Library and unsecured/informal spaces that are distributed throughout the building on all podium levels. Part of the podium facing onto Alumni Green is a new dramatic three-storey Reading Room that forms part of the Library.
fjmt is a multi-award-winning Australian architectural practice dedicated to design excellence and the enhancement of the public domain.
Place and community are inseparable. Developed between these terms, each of our projects is a transformation and interpretation of the site to make visible the aspirations of the client and wider community for which we build. We seek to create form and public space that accommodates and reflects human appearance, values and ideas, and importantly extends to the public realm.
fjmt has won numerous architectural and design awards including the World Architecture Festival ‘World Building of the Year’, the AIA, the Lloyd Rees Award for Urban Design, the NZIA Architecture Medal, and the RIBA International Award.
