Medland Metropolis were engaged to undertake a refurbishment of two lecture theatres on the University of Queensland’s Gatton Campus.
The aim of the refurbishment was to bring the lecture theatre up to current University of Queensland standard specifications with specific attention to lighting for audio visual presentation facilities and live video recording.
The lecture theatre was re-designed with particular emphasis on highlighting the original architectural features of each building.
A unique feature of our design was a boom on which all the services are attached. This boom is designed to be lowered for maintenance purposes, avoiding the need for scaffolding to maintain high level services above the fixed theatre seating.
