For the new business school at Edith Cowan University in Joondalup, Australia, architectural firm Hassell specified an impressive installation of Hunter Douglas sun louvers. These ellipsoid Aerobrise louvers create a highly functional exterior that controls the intense sun of Western Australia and establishes a distinctive look. The central arcade, designed by MGT Architects in association with Spowers Architects, conveys the progressive nature of the university with a series of dramatic struts formed of steel and recycled jarrah timber.
