Design Concept

EDUCATION DESIGN ENVIRONMENT

The DDI is a waterfront campus celebrating education, design and the environment. Solid education is the starting point to any form of design, through education and practice, quality design can be created, also branching from education we are able to look after our precious gift of the natural environment.

MASTERPLAN CONCEPT
The site is a celebration to the capabilities of the human body. Starting with a ‘skin’ that wraps around and through the sub-campuses consisting of Multimedia, Fashion, Sustainability and the Industrial Design buildings, it is a covering to the ‘organs’ of campus life.

Stretching from other parts of the City of Geelong are follicles of anticipation that encourage the public to move into the centre of the site, which is the ‘heart’; an open public plaza which educates the public on design, the environment, and promotes much lingering.

OUR BUILDINGS in the Masterplan Scheme

Each building acts as an element. In our Sustainability Site, or our 'organ', the three buildings are all elements that contribute to successful function of the organs operation, and further more to the utility of the whole 'body' of the DDI.
