Beaumaris Reserve Pavilion Redevelopment

Originally constructed in 1968, the existing pavilion was identified for inclusion in Council’s Accelerated Sportsground Pavilion Improvement Plan as a high priority for renewal to ensure the facility could meet current and future tenant needs, and to ensure future low maintenance cost requirements.

The scope of works for our team included demolition of the existing pavilion, supply and installation of temporary modular buildings for current club use during the construction phase, services upgrades including future proof works, relocation of an existing oval lighting pole, construction of the new pavilion, car parking and accessible car space hardstand, installation of associated landscape works, and finally removal of temporary facilities and make good works.

The new building provides a large DDA-accessible entry foyer, 4 separate player change rooms, first aid room, private referee amenities, male and female club amenities, large club social room with links to a new bar, kitchen, and kiosk, multiple club storage areas, and access to public toilets. All fixtures and features were selected for longevity, with natural materials, colours, and tones specified to deliver an overall relaxed and welcoming feel for both club members and visitors.

The new facility includes significant Environmental Sensitive Design (ESD) characteristics, specifically requested by Council and designed by the Architects. These include rainwater harvested and stored for re-use; motorized louvres for ventilation; motion sensor lights and expansive windows for maximum natural light; extensive insulation to minimise artificial heating and cooling costs; high efficiency LED lighting; installation of solar panels; and the specification of building materials containing high recycled content.

The project was successfully delivered in close collaboration with Council to facilitate maximum public use of other existing assets at Beaumaris Reserve during construction.
