Union House

other

The Union House at the University of Adelaide stands out because of its rugged, brutalist concrete facade, which sharply contrasts with the more traditional sandstone buildings nearby. Built in nineteen seventy-four, it replaced older student facilities to become the central hub for campus life. During the late nineteen seventies, the building housed a controversial student-run radio station that broadcasted through the halls, often creating enough noise to disrupt administrative meetings in the nearby offices. Students occupied the common rooms here to organize protests.
