With a bent for the natural environment and sustainability, the renovated center for the University of Sydney's Business School provides a place for innovation, learning, and socialization for both its 6,000 students and the local business community. The solution was to consolidate what was previously several facilities spread out on the campus into a single, cohesive site with nine buildings oriented around both historic buildings and trees. The redesign culminated into a 40,000-square-meter area—dubbed the Abercrombie Precinct—which now includes significant interventions such as a 550-seat-lecture hall, eight 100-seat study rooms, 40 seminar rooms, a learning hub, a café, and an additional 15,000 square meters of informal learning space.
