Kelvin Grove Urban Village, Mixed-use urban development in Brisbane, Australia.
Kelvin Grove Urban Village is a mixed-use residential and commercial development that includes housing, Queensland University of Technology facilities, shops, and offices. The Village Shopping Centre provides a supermarket, specialty retailers, restaurants, and underground parking for residents and visitors.
The site was formerly a military barracks that the Queensland Department of Housing purchased in 2000. A partnership between the state and the university transformed the grounds into a contemporary residential and educational precinct.
The Roundhouse Theatre stands out as a circular performance space that hosts productions and educational events within the village. Its unique design allows audiences to experience theater from all angles, creating an interactive relationship between performers and spectators.
The village is adjacent to the Queensland University of Technology campus and well-served by public transportation. Visitors can explore the shopping center, walk through the residential areas, and navigate the connected pathways without difficulty.
Student housing and university classrooms sit side by side in the village, blurring the line between academic and residential life. This integrated approach to campus living is less common in Australian university developments.
