The Edith Cowan University Library is located adjacent to the campus entrance on Joondalup Drive. We delivered the 12,000m² four storey library building for students and public use.
The library includes a general collection, training rooms, cafe (including cafe dining / servery and internet cafe), law study area, bookshop, mega labs, meeting rooms and state-of-the-art information technology systems. The building features sunscreens that filter natural lighting throughout.
A new entry road and approach to the library with feature paving, car parking and landscape seating completed the works.
The ECU Library won the Royal Institute of British Architects International Award and the Royal Australian Institute of Architects Award.
