Providing transformational learning environments

AUT SIR PAUL REEVES BUILDING

Adding 20,000 square metres to the Auckland University of Technology, the result is a flexible, contemporary and collaborative learning environment.

A 12-storey tower links to a three-storey atrium for lectures and public events. At street level, the building’s transparent facade acts as a ‘shopfront’, engaging the public and emphasising the activity inside.

Facilities within the tower support AUT’s School of Communication Studies.

RLB provided full quantity surveying and cost management services. We assisted with a sustainability study in the design phase and facilitated risk management and reporting.
