Urban renewal project, Tonsley Main Assembly Building and Pods by Woods Bagot and Tridente Architects, received the David Oppenheim Award for Sustainable Architecture and was praised by the jury for demonstrating \u2018an exemplary commitment to sustainability outcomes\u2019.\u00a0Central to the project was the adaptation and re-use of the eight-hectare structure, formerly housing the Mitsubishi car manufacturing plant – acknowledging the social history of the site, while minimising environmental impact. ‘Sustainability principles are at the core of the development, including clean technologies, sustainable energy, sensitive water design, passive ventilation and natural lighting. Interconnected paths for cycling and walking and access to public transport are also well considered’. ‘Tonsley is the first Australian urban renewal project to be granted a six-star Green Star Communities certification award’.<\/p>\n

‘Northern Beaches Christian School has been reconfigured to allow for both indoor and outdoor learning environments’. The architects have reconnected existing classrooms and established new collaborative spaces under an overarching canopy. The outdoor spaces are protected by the prefabricated steel structure, which also incorporates energy generation and rainwater harvesting. A series of multi-level pavilions provide a variety of dedicated new spaces together with the flexible outdoor learning spaces that encourage freedom of learning and interaction,\u00a0and a connection to the local environment. ‘Sustainability goals are advanced by the students\u2019 ability to actively engage with and monitor the building\u2019s performance’.<\/p>\n

Following recent directions in health design that promote a salutogenic approach, the University of Queensland\u2019s Oral Health Centre was noted for ‘contributing to a feeling of calm’ through ‘an inviting sequence of spaces that engage students, staff and the public. Collaborative learning environments, laboratories, interconnected pathways, study spaces and common areas connect with the outside environment, letting in ample natural light’. ‘This six-star Green Star rated building incorporates numerous sustainability initiatives, including passive design, solar power, the re-use of old building materials and on-site water treatment’. The Centre also took out awards for Interior Architecture and The Daryl Jackson Award for Educational Architecture.<\/p>\n
