John Sprunt of Architectus was one of last night's winners. "We’re thrilled to be honoured and recognised for our work on the Mandeville Centre, Loreto Toorak, in the prestigious AIA National Architecture Awards," he said. 

"The design philosophy was simple and yet is timeless – a figured plan, an expressive tectonic, and above all a building informed by its heritage context," he said.  

“The Mandeville Centre houses both teaching staff, the whole school library and year 12 classrooms, encouraging regular social and educational interaction in a light-filled indoor environment."
