Deakin Dennys Lascelles Refurbishment
STATUS: Project under construction
CLIENT: Deakin University
LOCATION: Geelong Waterfront Campus
The Dennys Lascelles building is an original woolstore structure, built in 1934. It has remained unrenovated and in a state of disrepair since it was obtained by the University in 1992.
Through reconfiguration and expansion of the existing floors and structure and the inclusion of atrium spaces, it is proposed to create an exciting multi purpose environment, providing light filled spaces of varying dimensions. The historic ambience of the building will be coupled with the use of leading-edge technology and environmental sustainability for which Deakin University is well known. The prominent corner location offers potential for a dramatic blending of Geelong’s history with its new directions. The current designs will see the building transformed into 6 levels with a central atrium and a new face to Cunningham Street.
