Jordan Springs Community Centre: Render vs Reality

Jordan Springs Community Centre opened in April 2018 and the architectural render image, initially crafted for the public,  highlights the success of the completed project through the similarity of the images.  The greenery and the cross laminated timber construction are standouts as sustainable design features, and as functional elements were used in this multi-functional centre to provide a sustainable design approach and delivery efficiency during the construction phase.

This 4,000sqm neighbourhood venue was a collaboration between Lendlease and Penrith City Council with BSE providing the engineering services including electrical, hydraulic, fire, mechanical and sustainability services for design, documentation and construction services. The centre comprises a hall/ function room, multi-purpose activity room, meeting and IT rooms, kitchen facilities, parent’s room, accessible change rooms, covered and open outdoor spaces, car and bicycle parking, barbecue facilities and amenities.

Our Senior Electrical Engineer and Project Leader, Maggie Xia summed up the project by saying, “BSE are really proud to have been involved on this landmark project for the community and being able to deliver such an innovative design with the CLT process, and we understand it to be the first of it’s kind in Australia”.
