The location of the arts and science centres were based on existing of Blue Gum trees and their locations. 
The result of the building design led to interesting building shapes with curves to all external walls moving in and around the adjacent trees. The effect is striking but made construction challenging on several fronts. 
The two buildings are connected by a glass wall link structure. The Science Centre is a three-storey structure that houses high tech Science labs, bathrooms, numerous rooms, a lift, and the eye-catching, open stair voids and amphitheatre. The Arts Centre is made up of a basement and two levels above the ground which include photography spaces, art store and workshops, staff room, open stair voids, lobbies, a lift, and an abundance of natural light. 
The façade is comprised of zinc and terracotta cladding, glass, exposed concrete, and terracotta baguettes. External areas include car parking, featured lighting, pedestrian walkways, and hard and soft landscaping.
The design and site constraints proved challenging for Lipman to overcome. However, they delivered new facilities that the client was thrilled with and a project the team should be immensely proud of.
