Paynter Dixon has started work on an exciting new education facility catering for hundreds of students at Norwest Christian College. This follows 18-months of creative design development between College Executives and Paynter Dixon’s experienced architectural design team. The two-storey atrium will include multiple open collaboration areas, eight classrooms (studios) and a 150-seat lecture theatre. The design is based on a contemporary learning model so there’s a number of open collaboration areas for the students. After designated classroom learning, students will come out onto a learning street (open learning space) which overlooks the atrium space. The project is due for completion January next year.https://www.paynterdixon.com.au/wp-content/uploads/Norwest-CC-Announcement-Final.mp4
