Learning Environments WA Chapter invites you to join us for a site tour of the new performing arts building at Kiara College, followed by drinks and nibbles. Click here for the event flyer.
The new performing arts building, with its white fluted “crown” cantilevered over a brick base, strikes a commanding presence when seen from Benara Road.
The building’s siting features an elongated red wall that clearly define the school’s entry; an effective wayfinding device for pedestrians and those arriving by vehicle.
The cantilevered “crown” defines the student drop-off zone, which is further acknowledged by the long bench seat integrated into the red-brick wall.
The formality of the primary façade transforms into a colonnade that opens to and grassed terrace raised above a new six-seasons court featuring colourful sculptures by indigenous artists.
This enclosed space adds an urban quality to the school grounds and is a popular meeting placed for students.
The additions revitalise the school’s identity and its presence within the community.
Members - No charge. Non-members - $15 + GST.
