Churchill Park, Busselton

All metal components feature marine-grade corrosion protection appropriate for Busselton's coastal environment. The building's structure uses hot-dip galvanised steel treated with a two-pack epoxy system, providing industrial-grade coating that enhances corrosion resistance. Britex fixtures are manufactured from marine-grade stainless steel, whilst aluminium cladding elements are corrosion-resilient and built to last in coastal conditions. The mini-orb internal cladding eliminates porous grout lines where salt and moisture can accumulate, and the exposed aggregate concrete flooring provides a non-porous, salt-resistant surface that won't degrade from coastal exposure.

Yes. The extended verandah with privacy screens provides sheltered access whilst maintaining clear sightlines and natural surveillance from the surrounding park areas. Roof skylights maximise natural light penetration during daytime hours, creating a well-lit, safe environment. LED lighting ensures excellent visibility during evening use. The open verandah design eliminates hidden corners and blind spots, whilst the building's positioning and transparent elements support passive surveillance principles that deter anti-social behaviour.

External handwashing basins significantly improve flow-through during high-volume events by allowing people to wash sand, sunscreen, food residue, and BBQ mess without entering the toilet building. This reduces queues at peak times, particularly during events like the Busselton Show when families need to wash hands quickly before eating. The external basins also keep interior floors cleaner and drier by preventing sand and outdoor debris from being tracked inside, reducing cleaning frequency and slip hazards whilst improving the overall user experience.

The colour scheme was carefully selected to suit Busselton's coastal location. Surfmist was used for roof sheets and internal mini-orb cladding, providing a clean, bright interior. Paperbark features on external wall sheets, wall trims, and roof trims, creating a warm, natural coastal aesthetic. Deep Ocean was chosen for doors and louvres, adding visual interest whilst providing practical durability. This palette balances contemporary design with environmental sensitivity appropriate to the park setting.

The building uses Modus Australia's prefabricated modular construction system. Manufactured off-site in flat-pack panels with doors pre-hung and fixtures included, the building was delivered to site and bolted together on a prepared concrete pad. This system enabled fast, accurate installation with minimal site disruption, typically requiring only 1-2 weeks for on-site assembly compared to months for traditional construction methods. The prefabricated approach ensures precision engineering, quality control, and reduced waste.
