Sector: Education

This 5 Star Green Star-designed teaching facility on WSU’s Bankstown campus takes a progressive approach to sustainability and education design. Organised in two 3-storey wings that intersect at a full-height public core, the facility incorporates future-focused elements including flexible learning spaces, Laboratories, studio spaces, a lecture theatre and integrated ICT. Complementing this is a range of sustainability measures including a BMS mixed-mode integrated ventilation system, night flushing via automated louvres and public spaces ventilated naturally through the stack effect.

BKA Architecture is an established practice with a track record of excellence across a breadth of design sectors. From educational projects to commercial, community, multi-residential and beyond, we’re committed to delivering thoughtful architectural and interior design solutions that meet client and occupant needs.

We take a bespoke approach to every project, working closely with clients and stakeholders to tease out and address the complexities of each brief. 

We consistently deliver highly tailored architecture that exceeds expectations and, above all, puts users first. BKA is also a passionate advocate for diversity and gender equality within the profession, viewing both as essential to creating inclusive environments that respond to user needs. 

Similarly, the practice takes a number of proactive measures to incorporate sustainability into all our endeavours, including an in-house Green Star Accredited Professional (GSAP), implementation of best practice Environmentally Sustainable Design (ESD), and engagement of collaborators with demonstrable environmental ethics.
