Prize
Winner

This impressive building is the first mass timber school constructed in Australia and used the latest European timber technology from Germany, Switzerland and Austria. It involved the design, fabrication and importing of 40 shipping containers of timber from the overseas suppliers. In total, 1550m3 of engineered timber was used on this project – 240m3 of cross-laminated timber (CLT) wall panels, 1100m3 of Lignotrend slabs/roof, and 210m3 of Glulam beams/columns. In addition to this, 1800m2 of acoustic timber ceiling linings were imported.  The Stephen Edwards team demonstrates the patience, skill and outstanding workmanship that is required to complete this unique project.  The extensive use of timber throughout creates an appealing ambience and warmth to the school environment. It is a benchmark project that will stand the test of time.
