SPH Architecture + Interiors were engaged by MercyCare to provide the site investigation, concept massing plan and report for the St Joseph Pignatelli Parish Church and Mel Maria Catholic Primary School site in Attadale.
The proposal was to include an 80 Bed Aged Care Facility (ACF), 80 Place Early Learning Centre (ELC) and two Parish accommodation units on the existing 24844m2 site. The concept focused on retaining the central grassed oval and positioning the new ACF & ELC buildings towards the edge of the site, allowing the for the oval space to act as the central hub and heart of the project. The proposal explores the opportunity to create a dynamic, vibrant community of mixed age groups; Early Learning, Primary School, and Aged Care within one large site.
