The Brief

Designed as a gateway building for future officers of the ADF, the Australian Defence Force Academy integrates academic and educational services for UNSW undergraduates. The facility features a 1,200-seat auditorium, indoor sports centre and live-in accommodation, delivered across ten work sites in a live defence environment.
