A performing arts centre has quite
a head start over most building types.
It should be beautiful and inspired and
quite unlike a dressed up warehouse,
or apartment block. The grand gesture
too, often heralds disappointment
with interiors that fail to match first
impressions. Raised expectations and
actual delivery is a rare achievement,
yet this is precisely what occurs in
the traditional, Geelong Grammar
School’s Corio campus, an hour
south of Melbourne.
