Inspire learning and stimulate creativity in an educational facility filled with flexibility and functionality. Use aluminium partitioning, sliding and door systems to disperse light throughout educational settings and watch the bright ideas spark.
Criterion’s range of products are ideal for schools and universities requiring a uniform finish that can withstand the demands of student use. Below are two educational projects which utilised Criterion products in Melbourne and Perth.
The RMIT Teaching and Learning Space, located on Level 9 of Building 8 on 360 Swanston St, was a recent project led by Spowers Architects and completed by Coplan Interiors. Recrafted with a new contemporary design, the space was tailored to fit the needs of the students and staff.
The goal of the project was to design and manufacture a custom-finished detail to the architect’s specification - collapsing the formal studio model and creating a space conducive to creative, practical training. The end result was a contemporary space which could cater and grow with different aspects of learning, thus creating an elevated experience for all users of the space.
One of Criterion’s feature products in the completed project was the premium partition system, Platinum 90. Incorporating aluminium glazing frames across doors and windows, Platinum 90’s superior design heightens interior style in this particular commercial application.
The other specified product was the custom-finished Aurora doors. Constructed with strong and durable components, Aurora Aluminium Doors are low maintenance and deliver consistent high performance in heavy traffic settings.

Designed by Kerry Hill Architects, the City of Perth Library is the first major civic building to be constructed in Perth for around 40 years, taking out the 2016 WA Architecture Awards and the inaugural 2017 Library Design Awards.
The building features 3,500 square metres of space over seven floors. Each floor targets a different demographic with a floor for young children with soft surfaces and age-appropriate furniture and a young adult floor with study rooms and recreation areas.
Kerry Hill Architects utilised the Platinum 120 aluminium partitioning system. Criterion’s signature suite, Platinum incorporates aluminium glazing frames across doors and windows. This superior design heightens interior style and was complemented throughout the library by the use of Criterion’s Aurora Aluminium Doors and MDF Doors. The space was finished off utilising SK101 Concealed Fix Skirting.
