The Chapel of the Upper Room at College House, completed in 2022, showcases modern architecture with its striking double-height interior and iconic M-shaped copper roof, serving as a centerpiece of the 1960s campus masterplan.

The Chapel at College House is one of Miles Warren’s finest buildings, with its double height interior and distinctive M shaped copper roof. It sits elevated above the grassed quadrangle as the focal point of the beautiful 1960’s campus masterplan. Wilkie + Bruce Architects were privileged to provide both architectural design services and heritage expertise for the strengthening and refurbishment of this seminal modernist building so it could be reopened for use.
