Designed by Williams Ross Architects and built in 2019, the new Student and Administration Centre at Salesian College Chadstone, brings key student services together.
The extension has created a new front door to the College and brings previously disparate areas of the school organisation together.
The building has a clear sense of entry with the reception aligning with the existing campus entry gates and views into the College courtyard.
The brick façade edged with black steel and the feature wrought iron Crucifix over the entry void are reminiscent of materials on the existing campus.
The centre creates a welcoming, light-filled foyer that leads to the existing College courtyard.
The Williams Ross team has created an energy-efficient building uses light-filled spaces and natural ventilation and improves connections and access into the existing two-storey facility behind.
