University OF auckland school of engineering refurbishment

The 1960’s brutalist building for the University of uckland’s engineering building required a major refurbishment. The brief required an extensive upgrade of the structure, addition of extra five floors to meet the space requirements, clever decanting strategy which allowed classes to continue while construction was in progress and a new facade system to replace the old inefficient single plane glass window. The existing classrooms were out-of-date and inefficient spaces, followed by dark corridors without any natural light. The brief focused on interdisciplinary pedagogical approach where the emphasis was placed on spaces that could be utilised by other engineering faculties.
