St. Patrick’s College: Scientia Building | BVN
The St Patrick’s College Scientia Building is a new civic heart for a historic campus the first stage in a master plan, aimed at transforming the learning landscape of the school. Paving the way for student centred learning environments to come, it’s an architecturally striking front door for the campus, and hub for the community.
Taking full advantage of the site’s natural and physical features, the podium level features an undercover outdoor gathering space, a canteen and dining area and the building’s signature tiered grandstand, overlooking Breen Oval.
The rectangular floor plans are laid out on a regular grid, easily adaptable to differing learning styles including cross curricular workshops and small group study. Open air spaces blur the line between formal and informal learning and teaching.
The introduction of the Scientia Building serves to cement the identity as a school with ambitious modern values and a deep pride in its history.
