Macquarie Park, NSW NextSense - Centre of Excellence

ADCO has delivered the $75 million NextSense centre for innovation, on Macquarie University’s campus in Sydney’s north.

NextSense’s (previously known as the Royal Institute for the Deaf and Blind) state-of-the-art, exemplar facility provides innovative and dedicated services to people with hearing or vision loss and advance education in these fields of learning. The future-focused development gives best-practice support, to achieve exceptional outcomes for current and future generations.

NextSense has relocated from the existing North Rocks facility to its new Macquarie University location, bolstering the strong partnership and collaborative relationship that exists between NextSense and Macquarie University, enhancing research, collaboration and resources.

To ensure the success of the project, ADCO delivered this exciting project using industry leading technologies such as virtual reality and LiDAR scanning to enhance the client’s experience and create an entirely transparent construction journey. The project is targeting a 5 Star Green Star certification.
