Sandgate Bay Intergenerational Campus

trophy Awarded

The Sandgate Bay masterplan is the combination of three pillars: community, collaboration, and connections. Providing a cohesive link between the bayside campus and the rest of the Sandgate region. The design sets out to create a new intergenerational typology for education and living, tackling the emerging aging population in Australia. Both play and learn are viewed simultaneously. The result is a new community environment that is designed for the interaction between the young and old, students and neighbors, the community and greater public. Types of interaction have been explored, creating a clear design language through the design of each space. The masterplan exemplifies 21st century intergenerational living and learning, fostering creativity, collaboration and community.
