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.

About the

Ethos
The best architecture is life-enhancing and uplifting.

Alongside the visible better-known practical aspects of the Architect’s role we strive to deliver fresh, specific solutions reflecting the unique combination of influences, attitudes and forces that come to bear on each individual project. Informed original creative thinking and communication are the core professional skills at the heart of our work.

Our objective is design excellence at all levels, from concept to detail, as part of our mission to achieve lasting, well-made, built solutions. We have respect for history and the natural environment. Subtle responses to site, context and climate are important to us. The collective experience, talent and willingness within our practice is recognised as our greatest resource.

At ArchiPro we recognise and acknowledge the existing, original and ancient connection Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples have to the lands and waterways across the Australian continent. We pay our respects to the elders past and present. We commit to working together to build a prosperous and inclusive Australia.
