John Septimus Roe Anglican School – Kindergarten

Beechboro, Perth, Western Australia, 2012

The Kindergarten addition to the John Septimus Roe Anglican Community School in Beechboro provides children with a wonderful learning environment that is inviting, nurturing, fit for purpose & most importantly fun. The design response is a highly sophisticated & exceptionally well considered outcome. Material selections give the space a sense of warmth & natural charm while being appropriately robust & durable. The elegant detailing is well executed & the space conveys a strong sense of craftsmanship. Clever provisions for the “mess of play” include a custom designed hanging system for children’s paintings & drawings. Puzzle shaped storage units act as mobile partitions for dividing the space into a variety of areas to suit different teaching modes. The use of colour is subtle & inspires rather than dictates & the ambiance created from the composition of skylights, light fixtures & coloured acoustic panels in the coffered ceiling is poetic. Clever appropriation of the budget has enabled a wonderful result to be achieved within tight financial constraints & environmental attributes are intrinsic rather than applied. This project is an exemplar for primary school teaching spaces & is a wonderful outcome for the local community & families with children in the area. A space that will undoubtedly reside in the collective memories of the children & staff that enjoy the facility.

The B Shed

Victoria Quay, Fremantle, Western Australia, 2010

Perched on Fremantle’s Harbour waterfront, the stunning transformation of the B Shed into a modern ferry terminal illustrates the very best in adaptation, conservation and clever design. The development of the 85-year-old cargo shed is part of Ports larger plan and vision to revitalise the west end of Victoria Quay. By providing much needed facilities for ferry operators and passengers, this iconic facility opened up the heritage-listed building for the benefit and enjoyment of the WA community whilst maintaining the integrity of the building and interpreting aspects of the port’s rich heritage. By use of self-contained ticketing pods, modern caf’, and contemporary interpretation panels, using modern materials and colours the old and the new are clearly distinguish. The project was a stunning success, winning the prestigious Excellence in Adaptive Reuse: The Gerry Gauntlett Award at the 2011 WA Heritage Awards.
