In November 2019, Studio Trudeau started work with Saint Ignatius College, Riverview (Lane Cove, Sydney), to carry out a conservation and functional assessment of the archive.
Over 6 months, we developed three refurbishment proposals to optimise and increase the layout, functions and interiors of the school’s museum and archive. These were graded as basic, moderate and advanced to provide the greatest possible scope to the College.
Drawing on our experience in design, building analysis, material collections and art displays, the proposals provide a roadmap for the archive over the next 15 years, delivering much-improved interfaces with the collection, better learning experiences, and up to 30% more area – including a whole new research area and library – without any external construction.
Complete.
We’d love to hear from clients interested in new build, refurbishment and conservation projects, whether in Australia or Europe.
