SIDNEY MYER ASIA CENTRE As the name implies, the Sidney Myer Asia Centre houses the Asia Institute as well as other Asian Studies-related institutions. It houses classrooms as well as the Carrillo Gantner Theatre. Nation Fender Katsalidis created it. It is intended to meet the demands of both a university's teaching and exhibition space, as well as the executive offices of an education/business company, Asialink. The building will be placed on the University's main entry axis and will constitute the southern edge of a masterplanned principal entry plaza. The general color scheme of the building is bright, with the exception of the Spirit Wall in the corners, which serves as a buffer between the Potter and the Alice Hoy Building on Monash Road. • The splendid water feature at the entrance of the SMAC designed by FIona da Preu. •The Spitit Wall in the north-eastern corner was designed by Akio Makigawa
