Yarra Valley Grammar Fine Arts Building Ringwood

The new Arts, Design and Technology Building for Yarra Valley Grammar incorporates a multitude of studio and workshop spaces for inquiry and experimentation. The learning spaces are alive with activity and enjoy framed scenes of adjacent rooms, proximal landscape, and the spectacular Yarra Ranges beyond.

The three-level building responds to a tight site within the existing school campus, and links closely with the Hayball-designed Maths and Science Building, fostering cross-disciplinary learning and connectivity between learning modes.

The variegated building form is propped on canted columns, seeming to float over falling ground with three vast, framed openings that celebrate near and distant views. A top-lit atrium bathes an interior stair in natural light and draws students from the lower-level entry up through the building.
