Architectus has submitted a development application for the new Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences (FASS) building at the University of Sydney’s Camperdown campus.

The proposed building comprises six storeys and will be situated behind the R.D. Watt building (built in 1916), across from the Heydon-Laurence building (built in 1895) and fronts Parramatta Road.

The proposal seeks to continue the landscape tradition at the University of Sydney by creating positive and engaging new spaces around and between the R.D. Watt building and the new FASS building.

The proposal aspires to be a “creative, healthy, comfortable, engaging and inspirational building with a distinct sense of place and identity – a sustainable and flexible building that integrates external spaces and landscaping and responds to the heritage context to provide a contemporary and world-class educational building.”
