This project comprised of upgraded Administration areas for OLSH in Kensington and a relocated ‘front door’ for the College. The objective was to provide a contemporary, functional and uplifting workspace for staff and a welcoming entry to the College.

Biophilic design principles were utilised including use of natural materials, maximising natural light and integrating nature throughout the space. References to the College’s core values have been incorporated into the design and the Catholic Charism of love has been celebrated throughout, with a particular emphasis in the foyer area where visitors appreciate a unique sense of place upon entering the College.

This upgrade includes a welcoming reception area with a green wall, boardroom, staff offices and collaborative workspaces, student reception, sickbay and staff and visitor amenities.
