“Lourdes Hill College has
            worked extensively with Civic Australia
          across a number of years to refurbish and
         enhance our Senior School Classrooms and
    facilities, including our dedicated Senior Hub which
   is a contemporary space designed to help our Senior
School students prepare for life beyond school. This project
 has incorporated range of independent and collaborative
 working spaces, a Careers and Academic Mentoring centre
as well as a lecture theatre and conference space for group
meetings and presentations. The outcome of each of these
  projects has been greatly enhanced by the knowledge,
  experience and advice of the Civic Team and benefited

            COLLEGE
                                      Canterbury College has taken things to a whole new level by applying these famous
                                      words by Steve Jobs. The design and functionality of this space work seamlessly
                                      together making a strong aesthetic statement as well as providing a flexible learning
                                      space to the students. The Civic team put their heads together and their most
                                      innovative ideas forward. From that discussion, space plans and 3D renders came
                                      into play. Canterbury College were blown away by the creative and ‘outside the box’
                                      concepts that were presented to them. This space radiates of modern, 21st century
                                      working spaces, embracing Civics’ Mode 3 philosophy. With zones from Campfire,
                                      Cave, Waterhole and Mountain Top, this library space accompanies for all potential

                                                          area for students to explore
                                                           and immerse themselves
                                                                  in learning.
            After a very successful outcome of the
            Canterbury senior space, Civic Australia
            was approached to design the new Junior
            Space, also known as their ‘Discovery
            Centre’. The school is a beautiful campus
            that overlooks the Logan River. It
            encompasses state-of-the-art facilities
            and a student population which now
            exceeds 1,400.

            The brief was to create something “wow”,
            a space that made a strong impact on the
            students as well as everyone who walked
            in. The Civic team worked on many
            different concepts till the client felt we
            had mastered their vision. Over 9 custom
            joinery designs were created, to tailor
            specifically to our client’s requirements.

            The finished project was nothing short
            of a success. The detailed design
            journey paid off as happy students and
            teachers use this space in their day to
            day activities. The work has been highly
            spoken of by users of the space, parents
            who visit for conferences as well as
            educational professionals.

From a friendly phone call, grew a breath-taking project to life. A project that sits
in a beautiful building at The Springfield Anglican College. The Queensland College
leaned on Civic Australia’s knowledge and experience to transform their library
space into something greater.

Seeking a more sophisticated furniture solution, The Springfield Anglican College
was intrigued to embrace Civic’s Mode 3 philosophy. After being presented design
concepts, Civic put their heads together to finalise the design incorporating and
utilising the feedback. Custom colours and finishes were sorted, and the production
was carried out.

Collectively with Curved Bookcases, Concentric Units, Pod Banquette Units and
Ottomans, the end result was magnificent. The outcome is a stunning project that
is modern, strategic and encompasses the Mode 3 philosophy in a modern way.

            DE LA SALLE
            COLLEGE
            De La Salle College, Revesby Heights is a systemic, Roman Catholic day school for boys
            located in Revesby Heights, in the south-west of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia.
            The school was founded as a school of the De La Salle brothers in 1960.

            The school’s staff area, a library and 3 classrooms needed refurbishing. The 3 classrooms
            had to encompass flexible furniture so it could open and convert to an assembly area
            when required. Tim Logue, principal, worked closely with Ben Rowland (Project Consultant)
            & Rebecca Camilleri (Interior Designer) to finalise the furniture, quantities and finishes

            The 3 spaces are a creative mix of the huddle lounge, classic blocks ottomans, nexus
            seating and our most popular Evo chairs and Nastrom desks to name a few. Complimentary
            colours coupled with a high standard of quality provides the future generation learning

                            Ash, student

Macarthur Anglican School commissioned
Civic Australia to design a new layout that
would assist in welcoming the students
back into the learning space. The brief
consisted of; a flexible learning space,
durable hard-wearing furniture & a
design that would bring the ‘wow’ factor
back into libraries.

The result is a Civic transformation.
Bold colours of aqua, magenta & lime
green blend with cafe tables made of
natural oak and soft seating. These
pieces are perfectly accompanied by the
Evo Chairs & Campfire units. Students
can choose to work in the quieter Cave
spaces or collaborate in the Campfire
configurations.

   This is the
   space that
   keeps students
   coming back
   for more.
