St Patrick’s College, Townsville concluded its revolutionary, state-of-the-art facility development in May, 2020. The project included the development of an 800-seat auditorium, art library and nine classrooms to support the school’s dance, drama, and music programs.

As a trusted provider of contemporary furniture, NPS Commercial Furniture played a key role in bringing this dynamic educational space to life ensuring a seamless balance of durability, comfort, and modern design.

In this project, a focus on clean, contemporary design combined with functionality was applied in order to generate a distinct interior aesthetic that would incite feelings of organisation and comfortability, without sacrificing personality. That being said, it made sense for the i AM Turn Table to be a staple feature of the precinct. With a minimalistic yet sleek design, these turn tables create a flexible table base system whilst allowing for ease of movement and considerable storage. The result – an aesthetic, modern style with a touch of personality conveyed through the aged wood finish. Finally, the RBM Ana chair epitomises Scandinavian style, complimenting the warm wooden tones of the chosen table by offering sophistication and style. The vibrant colours will bring any room to life without disregarding its primary purpose – creating a comfortable and functionally sound seating arrangement.

By integrating contemporary furniture with smart, versatile design, this project has successfully created a vibrant and engaging learning environment—one that will inspire students for years to come.
