Schematic Design Renders
The Project's design team, led by Lyons Architecture, completed the schematic design phase in October 2018. This design phase builds on the ideas developed in concept design to define and confirm floor plan and facility requirements. The Project's Steering Committee, the ultimate decision-making body for the Project, approved the schematic design in November, allowing the Project to commence the detailed design stage.
