Biyal-a Armstrong Creek Library and Community Hub was created to serve one of Victoria’s fastest-growing communities with a building that is welcoming, flexible and deeply connected to place.
For the City of Greater Geelong and Buchan, the goal was clear. This needed to be a civic landmark that supports community life while expressing strong architectural and sustainability values.
Named Biyal-a, a Wadawurrung expression referencing the local Armstrong Creek landscape and watercourse as a place of many red gums, the library reflects a strong connection to Country and community. That sense of place was strengthened through collaboration with the Wadawurrung Traditional Owners Aboriginal Corporation.
