Colour@ASHS wins Resene Total Colour Awards 2011

Posted by on 5 September 2011

The striking colours of Albany Senior High School - designed by Jasmax - has been awarded top honours in the Resene Total Colour Awards. Jasmax gave the school the choice of a neutral palette or a bright and bold option - bright and bold won hands down.

Colour is central to all aspects of the school, best summed up as a neutral tonal canvas with splashes of colour providing meaning to the vision of the school. 10 separate strong colours have been introduced, one for each of the 10 learning communities. All the school's colours are then brought together in the heart of the school, the entry foyer, where they are all represented in a larger than life pixelated wall that encloses the library. Here the colours represent the diverse aspects of the school coming together as one, new, exciting and thought provoking school.

For their use of colour in Albany Senior High School, Jasmax not only received the Resene Total Colour Education Award, they also recieved the top honour of the Resene Total Colour Master - Nightingale Award. The school community would like to congratulate Jasmax on their innovative, award winning design.
