Project Exclusive
The University of Tasmania’s Forestry Building has been reimagined as a contemporary, sustainable learning environment that blends heritage fabric with modern architectural thinking. The design centres on a renewed winter garden, bringing daylight, greenery and natural ventilation deep into the building.
Restored existing structures are carefully integrated to retain the site’s character, while new spaces are shaped around openness, movement and community access. Sustainability is expressed through the use of natural materials, improved energy performance and an urban landscape strategy that reveals the historic rivulet and connects the site to a future green spine through the city
