The refurbishment and extension of existing university buildings is a critical consideration for many universities. This article details an architect's perspective of an innovative and collaborative design approach to transforming an existing library into a futuristic and student-centric interactive learning environment. The design is responsive to people, place, the community and the environment, due, in part, to the enhanced physical permeability of the building. Associated user-group forums comprised the end user client, the university's facilities body, the builder, lead architectural consultants, the Centre for Indigenous Students (Gumurrii Centre) and architectural sub-consultants. This article discusses five key design moves--"triangulate", "unique geometries and spaces", "learning aviary", "sky lounge" and "understanding flexibility". It goes on to discuss these elements in relation to designing spaces to enhance interprofessional education and collaboration. In summary, this article identifies how it is possible to maximise the value and characteristics of an existing library whilst creating a series of innovative spaces that offer choice, encourage serendipity and embrace experimentation.
对许多大学来说,翻新和扩建现有大学建筑是一个关键的考虑因素。本文详细介绍了建筑师对创新和协作设计方法的看法,即将现有图书馆改造成未来主义和以学生为中心的互动学习环境。该设计对人、地点、社区和环境做出了响应,部分原因是建筑的物理渗透性得到了增强。相关的用户组论坛包括最终用户客户端、大学设施机构、建筑商、主要建筑顾问、原住民学生中心(Gumurrii 中心)和建筑子顾问。本文讨论了五个关键设计举措——“三角化”、“独特的几何形状和空间”、“学习鸟舍”、“天空休息室”和“理解灵活性”。接着讨论了这些元素与设计空间以促进跨专业教育和合作的关系。总之,本文确定了如何在创建一系列提供选择、鼓励偶然发现和拥抱实验的创新空间的同时,最大限度地发挥现有图书馆的价值和特点。
