Designed to follow the contours of the ground it sits on, Bunyip Childcare, was a prospective project on the fringes of Melbourne’s outer east suburbs.

The roof form dictates the shape of the building as it slopes to reflect the gradient of the ground. This would ensure minimal disturbance of the existing ground conditions as only minor excavation would be required therefore reducing the impact of the build, reducing cost and shortening the project construction program.

A communal tiered deck and outdoor play area provide breakout spaces for all childcare rooms and facilitates interaction with the natural environment.
