The project

Gray Puksand designed the Robotics and Advanced Manufacturing Centre at TAFE Queensland's Eagle Farm campus. It provides workshops and flexible theory and practical spaces for teaching renewable energy generation and storage, applied electrical technology, robotics, electrotechnology and process instrumentation. Large vehicles and equipment can move through the building, and public spaces with seating and projection host exhibitions and industry events.

The building was designed to achieve a 5 Star Green Star rating, using solar generation, mixed-mode ventilation, rainwater harvesting and lower-carbon materials. Its colours and materials connect it to the rest of the campus, while large areas of glass link the workshops with the outdoor spaces around them.
