Curtin University’s TL Robertson Library takes home 2nd prestigious award this year!

Curtin University’s TL Robertson Library has won the prestigious Social and Community Infrastructure Award at the 2024 Urban Development Institute of Australia (UDIA) WA Awards for Excellence.

TL Robertson Library reopened in February 2023 and the refurbishment of the building was led by Schmidt Hammer Lassen and our local collaborators Hames Sharley and was designed with a strong focus on social connection and community engagement.

The judges emphasised that the success of the transformation is reflected by the full utilisation of the space, not only by university students, but the wider community.

This win follows the TL Robertson Library's success at the WA Australian Institute of Architects Awards in June 2024, where it won the Sustainable Architecture Award and received a commendation for Educational Architecture.
