Sirius College [Keysborough]

Brief:

Sirius College wanted to create a large outdoor covered space for all weather play, PE, assemblies and learning due to rapidly increasing student numbers, yet not having adequate protected outdoor spaces.  The single basketball court was chosen as the first priority, however the structure was to be designed to allow future extension across the synthetic soccer pitch area.  The College wanted one company to take full responsibility for the entire project and ensure all trades seamlessly coordinated to deliver the final outcome.

Outcome:

The Greenline PVC membrane barrel vault style was a clear design standout of all options considered due to the robust engineering design, clean visual style, and the natural light transmission into the play space.

Using the most advanced fabric engineering software, and highest quality German manufactured fabric, the Greenline 4D process has again ensured a hassle-free project which will truly provide “spaces to grow” for Sirius College!
