The new Roslyn Otzen Sports and Wellbeing Centre provides an innovative and engaging new heart for the Korowa campus to support their mission of developing confident, capable young women who value their physical, social and emotional wellbeing as the foundation for a flourishing life.
The extensive facilities within the Centre are complemented by generous informal social spaces throughout, encouraging students of all persuasions to gather and fostering a holistic approach to health and wellbeing for all.
Conceptually the Centre references the 1960s red brick academic cloister model knitting the existing school buildings into the surrounding school context, creating a single cohesive educational environment and an identifiable and consistent campus language.
The articulation of the building achieves a balance between the robust volumes of the courts and pool hall and the fine detail of steelwork, screens, and fragmented terracotta facades, breaking down the building’s scale, with movement and light.
