The Ipswich Grammar School New STEM building aims to construct a state-of-the-art STEM learning facility to cater to the evolving educational needs of students from Prep to Year 12. The facility is a three-story building comprising a 155-seat lecture theatre, advanced laboratories, and versatile learning spaces. The design will integrate cutting-edge technology and contemporary architectural elements to signify the institution’s future-focused approach to education.

The exterior design uses exterior screens lined with programmable LED lights.  The lighting display allows the school to set a distinctive nighttime ambience.  The lighting display has advanced functionality to allow not only changing the individual panel lights, but to also program custom shows.

Constructing around an operational school presents inherent challenges, yet our adaptability enabled us to guarantee the punctual completion of the project’s objectives.
