Anticipating their 50-year anniversary, John XXIII College initiated a process of significant refurbishment, seeking a design concept that respected and understood the College history, culture and ambition. Incremental works over time resulted in an arrangement of ad-hoc spaces that were poorly surveilled, and underutilised.
The design strategy included significant upgrades of the existing building to improve energy efficiency, accessibility and original built fabric, and a new entry pavilion supports social and academic life.
