We are honoured to have received a commendation for Educational Architecture at the 2022 NSW Chapter AIA Awards for Rouse Hill Childcare.
Jury citation:
“Rouse Hill Childcare Centre is a spatial celebration of landscape, material, and colour. CO-AP are commended on their careful articulation of internal and external play spaces including the utilisation of a generous unconditioned veranda space which wraps the internal playrooms and utilises the thermal mass of an abundant planted roof over and playful circular skylights placed throughout.
The simple construction methodology of tilt up concrete and steel framing is layered with a considered textural material palette of internal and external finishes, providing joy to internal spaces and contrast to the thriving landscape beyond.”
