Trinity Beach State School recently unveiled their new Senior Learning Centre – a state of the art teaching facility, designed for Cairns’ growing population on its Northern Beaches. I was tasked by the builders, Field Construct, and its architects, Julianne McAlloon Architects, to showcase the new building, as well to capture it in use.
As a blueprint for future Dept. of Education facilities, the building features 16 General and Practical Learning areas, and a Professional Learning Centre for school staff.
The shoot itself was done over three sessions, providing a wide scope of daylight and twilight imagery that highlights the key architectural and design features. A shoot during school hours, with some of the students, also enabled us to better show-off it’s intended use.
