Wellness has literally been built into the Olivia Newton-John Cancer and Wellness Centre at the Austin Hospital in Melbourne. The Centre delivers cutting-edge clinical care in a tranquil environment that reduces stress on patients, visitors and staff. The building was designed to maximise energy efficiency and minimise environmental impacts. Building systems were selected to maximise comfort levels, such as the choice of passive chilled beams over air conditioning. Natural light has been harnessed and natural finishes, colours and textures used, to create a sense of bringing the outdoors inside.

Clayton Community Centre / Jackson Architecture

The Clayton Community Centre co-locates a Fitness and Aquatic Centre, Library, Auditorium and Theatre, Youth and Family Services Centre, Maternal & Child Health facility along with Preschool and Arts facilities creating a dynamic ‘one-stop-shop’ for social and recreational services. Also included is a new community Medical and Dental clinic. The planning makes these facilities “legible” and encourages exploration so that users of one facility may be attracted to others on offer. In this way the design seeks to engender a sense of community, ownership and pride.
