The AUD $180 m building showcases the University's commitment to innovative teaching and learning practices.

Key Objectives

  • To create a significant building and gateway to the Clayton campus, reinforcing the Monash University brand and vision

  • To deliver an exemplary building for multi-faculty teaching and learning, that applies the concept of 'long life, loose fit'

  • Deliver a building that exemplifies best practice student-centred teaching and learning, aligned with the University's 'Better Teaching Better Learning Agenda'

  • To provide a world class, multi-modal, integrated Monash Transport Interchange

  • To deliver best practice in sustainable design


Our SCOPE

A high degree of innovation was required in the design of the flexible acoustics system in the Leonardian. An operable stage acoustic 'shell' can be deployed to provide natural acoustic reinforcement for orchestral and choir performances and can be easily moved off stage when not required.
