EDMUND RICE COLLEGE


Description – NEW SPORTS HALL – EDMUND RICE COLLEGE
Location of Project – WOLLONGONG
Year Project Commenced – 2004
MHDP won a limited design competition for a new sports hall. The form of the building was developed around air-movement which was controlled to provide natural ventilation and cooling to the playing area. The design, vindicated by CFD modeling, achieved the standard required for a basketball court without mechanical systems.
MHDP also went on to undertake a Masterplan analysis of the school to determine the future development potential of the college site that established some key parametres for the improvement of the school grounds, linkages and facilities.
