FEDRATION SQUARE EAST EXTENSION, THIS PROJECT USES AN ANOLOGY OF BAMBOO FOREST TO CONNECT THE CBD FRINDGE WITH THE YARRA RIVER BANK, PROVIDING A SMOOTH TRANSITION FROM BUSY CITY LIFE TO THE RIVER.
DESIGN STATEMENT
The vast flatness of city, the hard boundaries the flat facades, lead to the loss of vivacious of human sensibility, and produce homogeneous, uninfected people. Such homogenisation deeply permeats people living in melbourne. Yet nature has the power to restore these human sensitivities. With the site located at the vivid yarra bank and the flat city frindge, the intention is to create a building that merges artificial environments and natural environments, to counteract the homogenisation of the city, A illusion of artificial and nature, providing a fluid activities and relationship between the surrounding environments.
