CULTURAL CENTRE
IN TAICHUNG, TAIWAN Architecture office AllesWirdGut, Vienna
Proposal for the on-going competition for the Cultural Centre in the city of Taichung. A building of 65.000 m 2 that includes a library and an art museum, both of which are interconnected through a common public space.
Ground floor plan
Longitudinal section
The building is an architectural interpretation of the Taiwanese mountains reflecting in the sea. It consists on three interconnected spaces interpreting known landscape motivs: The library reflects the recognizable symbol of the mountains of Taiwan, materilized in this builging as “mountains of culture and knowledge�.The middle connecting zone resembles the horizon, as a lookout platform towards the surrounding park and the city of Taichung. The museum is placed on the introverted part of the building and forms a shady cave structure that works as a public covered plaza.

WIFI TECHNOLOGY CENTRE IN ST. Pร LTEN, AUSTRIA Architecture office AllesWirdGut, Vienna
Winning competition proposal for the St. Pรถlten Technology centre in Lower Austria. The building will accommodate two functions: the training workshops of WIFI Lower Austria and the New Design University of St. Pรถlten.

The central idea that informs their proposal is to bring together these two main functions in one building. For one thing, this keeps valuable development areas free for other uses, and for another, it creates an opportunity for interdisciplinary communication between different users. A common lobby connects all uses, floors, and public spaces such as break and presentation areas including circulation routes so as to create one central communication area. The lobby directly opens onto a newly created plaza which connects the new building with the existing WIFI main building in the shortest possible way.

SOCIAL CENTRE IN NATIMUK, AUSTRALIA
Masters course, Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology
The project encompasses a regional development strategy for the region of Wimmera and an architectural proposal based in the rural town of Natimuk.
First floor plan
Site plan
The project starts with a regional approach and analysis of the region of Regional analyses Wimmera. Based on an agricultural economy, it is formed by a chain of dispersed urban units with low density populations and a shortage of social equipment. On a macro-scale level, it is developed as a regional plan that pursues the design of an infrastructure based on the improvement of a traffic and transport network, and the creation of a series of necessary equipment. The building developed for this Final Project focuses on the resolution of one of the social equipment facilities proposed for the town of Natimuk.

The project explores the different energy efficiency design systems that can be better utilized in skyscrapers.

Top floor plan
This project arises from a research study of horizontal spread of the city of Melbourne, and implement energy efficiency trends towards The building seeks to become a protype of (ZEB: Zero Energy Building) by means of:
the urban growth and its current necessity to its future development. sustainable construction
- Absorption of renewable energies such as eolic and solar with specific equipment incorporated on the building. - Usage of prefabricated materials that minimize the CO 2 emissions during its manufacturing and recycling processes.
- Reduction of the energy consumption through the maximization of the insulation materials, optimal orientation and natural air circulation, and water recycling systems.
Absortion of eolian energy

Ground floor Plan
Development of the design The volume of the tower is divided into three parts in order to reduce the scale impact and as a response to the different uses inside the building, including offices, housing, and a hotel on the roof. The horizontal volumes resemble the layout of the streets of Melbourne, with lanes that go through the interior of the city blocks.
COOKING SCHOOL IN GOROKE, AUSTRALIA
Master course, Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology
The project utilizes simple wood structures to solve for a demand of social equipment for the rural community of Goroke.
Floor plan
Sustainable usage of land The start-up idea that defines the project evolves around the concept of permaculture, which is defined as the development of sustainable architecture and human settlements with a self-maintained agricultural system modelled from natural ecosystems. The design of the building emphasizes patterns of the vernacular architecture techniques using wood structures cladding with galvanized steel sheets to construct the roof. The idea is to create a self-sustained cooking school that uses the empty lots in the near surroundings of the town to grow its own crops. This continued system provides the necessary resources and activity to keep the community self-sustained, active, and productive.
