Andrew Fong has moved to AJ+C’s education team after joining the practice in April.
With over a decade in design experience, Fong’s passion for community-shaping projects makes him a valuable addition to the practice’s personnel.
Prior to joining AJ+C, Fong worked on the landmark Arthur Philip High School in Parramatta (BVN & Grimshaw), the first high-rise public high school in New South Wales, plus new schools and campus additions in the ACT and Sydney, and upgrades to primary schools in Western Sydney and Wollongong.
He was instrumental within the design teams for these projects as well as for non-institutional learning environments for public settings including the award-winning Marrickville Library (BVN), Centre for Creativity (CFC) at Sydney Opera House, and Hyde Park Barracks Museum Learning Project (Hayball).
“The complexity of this sector is about accommodating very specific user needs and identities, organisational influences and budgets. The reward is the chance to create inspiring education spaces that help set the next generation up with the best opportunities to succeed,” Fong says.
AJ+C’s Studio Director Dua Green says the practice is delighted to have Fong on board.
“With our growing portfolio of SINSW and independent schools, AJ+C is excited to have Andrew join our team. He brings a wealth of experience on milestone projects, plus a passion for this sector. The great privilege of working on education projects is that we are literally helping shape our future generations.”
