Since 1886, The University of Melbourne's Dookie Campus has played an important role in the development of agricultural learning, shaping the future of agriculture in Australia. The University of Melbourne sought guidance to revitalise and enhance their Campus masterplan, with an emphasis on achieving a climate-responsive outcome for the site.
In collaboration with a multidisciplinary consultant team led by GLAS Landscape Architects, HIP V. HYPE provided sustainable input throughout the masterplanning process.
