To step outside the concept of reality means to step into a world of discovery. Concepts like the journey of discovery and and the tree of knowledge are explored through actual manifestations of ideas.

An 'Alice in Wonderland' doorway and a tree of knowledge sprawling upwards symbolise the centre's purpose - supporting and encouraging different learning styles and methods. Corporate colours and branding were eliminated, and furniture and finishes were selected to enhance the sensory experience of the space.

The various meeting and learning rooms have an abundance of natural light, while materials including paint and patterned rubber have been used in a creatively clever and striking way that inspires.

The ANZ Learning Centre offeres freedom from the constraints of a 'normal' office environment.

Through its playfulness and sense of fun, it sharpens the capacity to outperform.
