Gray Puksand was engaged to provide Architectural and Principal Consultant services for the Renewing Our Schools Program for four schools in the South East QLD in early 2019.

A brief was developed with close and rigorous design testing and consultation with the school stakeholders to determine that the most appropriate usage of the funding was to provide a multi-level contemporary resource centre. This was to create a new central heart of Corinda State High School campus that includes contemporary statement spaces that identify the school as a modern education environment.

Semi-external feature stairs at the centre of the building create visual connections through the volume, allowing supervision across floors. A central elevator provides accessible provisions to the centre of the new building. The design of the new Resource Centre contains flexible spaces (research and classes) to encourage collaboration and group learning.
