rmit design hubThe Design Archives will ank the western

orecourt o the Hub. Designed by Sean

Godsell Architects, it occupies three levels,

the two basement oors will house storage

acilities as well as visitor access on the second

level. On the lower level an 80-metre long

gallery ollowing the contours o the site will

link the RDA with the Hub and will be used

to exhibit the Archives collections and its

research. The top oor, which can be enteredrom Victoria Street, has glazed eastern

and northern elevations which overlook a

orecourt situated between the Hub and

the Archives.

This oor, like the lower two, is multi-

unctional and it is envisaged that part o its

unction in the uture will be as a rallying point

or Melbournes young and emerging designers.

The Victoria Street elevation is a glazed

window which includes a digital screen to

display the RDAs collections and activities to

the public who can gather in the space in ront

o the building. This acility will give the

Archives an urban presence which will be usedto engage the public in issues relating to

Melbournes signifcant design heritage.
