Training Academy
Our design focused on using Biophilia – a sustainable design strategy that incorporates reconnecting people with the natural environment – and Binary Code – integrating the 1’s and 0’s representing the fundamental building blocks of the Ministry’s core work area – as a means to provide a form of design hierarchy and navigation throughout the facility.
Key elements developed with the client are: Arrival Experience, Collaborative Corridors, Technology + AI, Wellbeing, Scholarship and Partnership.
There are a series of 9 lecture theatres – providing learning flexibility through scalable spaces – and numerous collaborative zones across the 3 floors, in addition to team wellness centres and support facilities located strategically to assist the management of the internal environment.
