Brisbane Boys’ College - College Hall
Toowong, Queensland
The new College Hall at Brisbane Boys’ College locates a number of musical teaching and rehearsal spaces on the lower levels. These spaces have been specifically designed to cater for a number of difficult instrument types and class sizes. The upper levels include a flexible multi-purpose performance space, art gallery and meeting space.
-
The performance space can accommodate up to 700 people for performances or assemblies and, through the use of retractable seating, up to 300 people for a sit-down function.
The existing College Hall at Brisbane Boys’ College Toowong campus no longer provided the resources required by the school as both a music teaching facility and performance and assembly space. Wilson Architects are working in association with Watpac to provide a new facility on a difficult sloping site and with a challenging budget.
