Highlighting our collaboration on the Centre for Higher Education Studies (CHES) in Melbourne’s South Yarra, a project completed in 2022 in partnership with Brand Architects and Fieldwork Architects.

Located on Chapel Street, the CHES is designed to support high-achieving Victorian secondary school students by providing specialized studios for a diverse range of university-level subjects. This modern facility spans five levels and features sophisticated lighting solutions that enhance both functionality and aesthetic appeal.

A standout feature is the atrium, which draws in abundant natural light, creating a bright and inspiring environment for learning. The lighting design throughout the building is meticulously crafted to complement the architectural vision and ensure optimal illumination across all levels.

We are proud to have contributed to this landmark project, which fosters academic excellence and supports the educational aspirations of students across Victoria.
