KingZip Linea System has been used to create a single curved, tapered surface encompassing both roof and walls, that envelops a striking new community building on the Northern Beaches of Sydney. KingZip roof system was used to realize the architect’s vision of an organic cloud-like form, spanning over and around the key functions of the new Police Citizens Youth Club in Dee Why.
The center houses two basketball courts, meeting rooms, a café and administrative offices, and car parking. The roof height, which varies by up to five meters, reflects the different internal uses. Completed in 2017 following two years in development, it is a distinctive, sustainable and innovative architectural landmark, and a standing testament to the versatility of the KingZip Linea system
“One of the wonderful things about using KingZip is you can taper it, twist and bend it or curve it without losing the strength as a consequence. You can make irrational shapes very easily.” - John Perry, Associate Principal, FJMT.
