So strongly architectural the use of colour is sophisticated, surprising and unexpected, drawing you in. Colour is used to bring the outside in. Brights are used in conjunction with a warmer soft palette to complete perfection. Colour has been applied to create a bright, interactive and positive feel, giving a sense of an energetic environment for learning. The clean lines and positioning of colour work well together, for a project that is colourful without being garish and interesting without being overpowering. A well thought-out use of colour.

Bold, confident and sophisticated. This colour palette has such a beautiful integration with architecture that elevates schooling to a whole new level. Colour adds to a welcoming place for students and teachers, providing the perfect backdrop to an enjoyable learning environment. Recessive natural colours along with bold feature colour accents give character to spaces. Colour acts as a relief, is functional and defines spaces, animates and provides visual anchors. A confident use of colour and design.
