WE’RE ALL FAMILIARwith the look of COLORBOND steel around our homes, but there are many large buildings that
incorporate COLORBOND steel into their design too. Milson Island Sport and Recreational Centre is a great example.
During construction, everything had to be barged to the island, so choosing building materials that were light, strong
and easily transported was essential. The distinctive shape of the building looks like an aircraft’s wing and assists the
building’s functionality, drawing hot air up and out of the building when the turbines are on and the lower louvres open.And using the colour Dune helps the building blend in with the colours of its surroundings. So, this is not just a beautiful
building to look at, but a wonderful building for children to play in, thanks to intelligent design utilising COLORBOND
steel. Congratulations to Allen Jack+Cottier Architects and everyone involved.Photog credits, see colorbond.com/photog. COLORBOND , Dune , BlueScope and the BlueScope brand mark are registered trade marks of
