Architecture & Interiors

The legacy of Peter Corrigan and Maggie Edmond at RMIT is most honoured in Building 8, a patterned extravaganza overlooking Swanston Street. This blue threshold transitions students from the main foyer into a calming wellbeing sensory space.

This carpeted otherworldly geometry shifts visitors from an overthinking headspace into a grounded heart space. Meticulous craftsmanship, reminiscent of master boat-building, features cushion piping-like rope edging and ergonomic stainless-steel planters. Merging a functional workspace with a garden in the sky retreat, the area provides a soothing, sensory respite for those seeking counselling and quiet reflection.
