ThomsonAdsett was one of six selected architects invited to submit ideas for a major redevelopment of their Gold Coast campus library. ThomsonAdsett was selected by the University to proceed with a design that prioritises the needs of the student, staff and visitors with innovative learning environments.
The $16.55M building has been conceived with a high degree of permeability with the intent of activating University Drive. Feature spaces include an experimental collaborative space, learning 'aviary' landscape, shard meeting room, seminar rooms on each level, a lap top lounge and feature sky lounge. The project also contains the GUMURRII Centre, a support centre for indigenous students conceived as an integral part of the scheme.
Priority has been given to the student with a range of learning settings offering an inspirational choice of learning environments internally and externally. The prominence of the extension will re-establish the library as the campus heart with a simple, responsive and distinctive building.
