Onslow Medical Centre
By Tennent Brown Architects
Working with Onslow Medical Centre’s three founding doctors, this purpose built general practice has been designed to serve the surrounding suburban community as well as, due to its location, act as a gateway building for Johnsonville. Tennent Brown Architects wanted to create a healthy, calm environment within the building. Using natural materials and a large green wall lit from a skylight above, the space feels tranquil while also modern and efficient.
The visible, corner site also compelled the architects to design a memorable building that signals arrival into the community. The form has been designed to sit well within the houses that surround it, but have a unique character.

About the
Professional
Tennent Brown is concerned with people, how our buildings and environments will affect their experience. We design to uplift the quality of life, of work, play and wellbeing of those the buildings serve. Architecture is built around people, and every design is an individual's or organisation’s story: their hopes and aspirations for a building that is their own.
People entrust us with realising some expression of themselves, to translate that into built form. We take that seriously. Ours is an architecture of listening and understanding: a humanist architecture.
