Led by the Faculty of Arts and Design, in collaboration with the Academy of Sciences, GML Heritage and GHD Engineering this multidisciplinary team will investigate innovative approaches to ensure progressive energy and emissions reductions while protecting and sustainably managing the Shine Dome’s national heritage values.
