The building provides a link between the new GLAs (also by Fulton Trotter) and refurbished hall of the campus. It takes advantage of its steep site on the Brisbane River and creates a striking effect with its glass façade and brickwork.

Completed under the Building Education Revolution (BER) program, the project has been praised for its good design, efficient project management and good value for money.
