Katsumata Community Centre, Geelong Victoria

A high performance and visually stunning building envelope was required for this Performance, Arts and Sports facility in Geelong Australia. Abstract shapes, bold colours and a unique design were at the heart of the architect’s vision for this project. The completed building was exactly as designed and provides an attractive, unique and functional space for the local community.

Aesthetically Intriguing
