EMPLOYMENT:
I am a graduated architecture student from the University of Queensland. I was born in Auckland graduating from Saint Kentigern College and my short-term career goal is to follow a competent researcher as an apprentice so I can improve my understanding in humanistic design and the role of the digital culture in contemporary society.
[2015] Anne Butler Memorial Prize (Best Graduate Thesis RMIT)
[2014-2015]
[2014] Accepted entrance into RMIT.
During December 2014 till February 2015, I worked as a sustainability researcher for DLN Architects. The job comprised of investigating different digital programs (grasshopper, geco, ecotect, revit) and how they would be able to benifit the architectural practice in both efficiency and ‘green design’. Every few weeks I would present to the firm through lunch-seminars on my progress. By the end of my term, I developed a series of tutorials for users to learn.

MASTERS : This book is a story revealing a series of architectural work designed by Anthony Ip. Concurrently, this book is a fiction of all the adventures occuring in the mind. The projects react to issues of human disaster shelters, robotic enquiry, urban farming, modern temples and researched future humanity.
STORY TELLING This book is a story revealing a series of theatricals that investigate questions of the fiction solving the non-fiction. Where proposed stories could become reality. It interrogates the complexity of each project as an idea, as a chronicle. Where cinematics can be illustrated through the personality of architecture.

It does not only to engage with the relationship between humanity and Digital Technology, but a more personal question. Is the architecture industry truly safe from robotic-intelligence?

EXHIBITED: RMIT 2014 EXHIBITION
TUTORS: MARK RAGGATT + TIM PYKE Why does light have an importance in modern towers? Since the begininning of architecture, as humans we worshipped the gods and afterlife through our temples depicted by the Mausoleum of Halecarnessus, the Great Pyramid of Giza and the Taj Mahal. Based on research, these buildings showed death, not as a tragedy but to an end of life. From this I was interested in the paradox between beliefs. Ancient humans believed in the afterlife and was not afraid of death, but as we approach comtemporary society we become increasingly less religious and trust science of having no god. However, we become more afraid of death. This tower investigates the idea of the ‘sacred light’ in suggesting the idea of death in an office tower.

THEORY Referencing the “Theory of Bigness� when a building is the XL scale, they mutate into independent objects in space where its external space is not liveable, the building must be inwards focused. Therefore, the plan of the building creates interesting and unique interior spaces for the tower through the use of a baywindow element.
Breaking away from the exhausted use of roof levels as skydecks, the roofdeck of this tower would be a rooftop bar, this would be an allegory of the terrestrial paradise.

TUTORS: TOM KOVAC + MICHAEL MEI Through investigating space theories and predicting phenomena in deep space, we have developed architecture through conjecture, developing the possibility for human habitation and evolution over time. The NEXUS project describes an evolving self-propagating living organism designed to adapt and evolve exponentially in the conditions of space. Cosmic radiation for growth and the search for water/moisture/ H2O for survival played an important role to advise and influence an evolving form.

// NOT ALIENS The YUNPINGU DAY PEOPLE were designed by Anthony Ip to show that, due to the creation of Yunipingu Park, 2050 Melbourne now celebrates the return of the wildlife back to the city through a celebration of a festival. People on this day celebrate bio-diversity by wearing animal hats, as a method to support this movement to creating a more stable wildlife in Australia. The design was based on Sejima People where they were edited and native Australian animal heads were instead given as a hat on these people.

In its search of what Aboriginal architecture can be, our team shifted our focus not on stereotypical cultures of indigenous groups, but instead to people’s actions. Thus, reassimilating what many contemporary incentives forget: how singular behaviours and explicitly civic performances of conflict have in the past strengthened the identity of indigenous subculture and enabled the joining of clans for an expression of a single voice.

// ANTE-CHAMBER GREENHOUSE The interior has a designed structure that provides multi-programas for the building including lighting, experimentation hangers and nutrient syringes into the wildlife but more specifically the vegetation.
// CENTRAL LABORATORY Wrapped by a semi-permeable membrane, the central laboratory (known as ‘ther mother’) is a unique ecosystem that connects all the smaller laboratories spread around the site together. Scientests use this space as primary entry point into the other smaller laboratories
// ‘REWILDED’ LANDSCAPE Before new constructions on the site took place, the first step in reclaimation of land was to transform the land back into a native paradise. The public would them be able to comprehend what true Australia and country means.
// INDEX WAYFINDERS After the construction of the ‘rewilded’ native landscape of Australia. A group of local Aboriginal students worked with artist Richard Serra to create a series of way-finding sculptures around the site. They create areas of curiosity isolating areas with appropriate views.
To present the storyboard, our team went through a discussion of how this would plaayout. After much consideration, the way the storyboards are displayed are through a narrative of a rascal girl and her dog, as they are meant to go to Sunday Kulin School, she sneaks away and discovers areas of adventure and mischeif within the architecture. The story begins as the girl named Jun gets off the train at Domain Exchange but quickly walks away from her brother to explore her day. As she exits the train station her dog Tony runs the right escalator as she takes the left, they reunite with amazement inside the Greenhouse as they gawk at the range of species they have never seen before and stare at the scientists performing experiments...
STORY BOARDS
Tony smells food and dahses to the restaurant area with June, as the two steal a burger to eat...Tony the dog runs again up the Green atrium and into the public space of the hotel. However, the security catches the two mouths covered with tomato sauce. He slowly places the two outside the market place, telling June, no dogs allowed in the hotel area. As the two wait for Jun’s brother to take them to Kulin Sunday School. After minutes of waiting, they are taken into the school while a dancing class was taking place. Bored at looking at traditional dancing, Jun looks outside the window at the freedom of the wetlands as families have a picnic. Excited after class Jun and her dog sprint outside to the flora gallery and play in the late afternoon. As the evening closes, they leave with their brother on the car, as they look back at Yunipingu Park where they had an awesome

TUTOR: GWYILL JAHN The project investigates additive forms generated from Photophobia, the condition of being hyper-sensitive to light. By developing this idea of Photophobia the project includes the construction of a robot and implementation of digital architectural production. The goal of the robot is to follow a rule-based system to create recursive landscapes. We are interested in cultivating the relationship between architects and the machine, where through coding, technical means and robotic processes is able to result in architectural spaces and qualities.

The formal facade of the folly was inspired by the unique shadows trees have on the soil. By abstracting this idea into a buildable structure, the folly recreates the shadows of the tree in an even more complex manner. The form of the structure is in reference to an artificial tree canopy resting on the earth, framing the views towards the university lake as a pleasure point for students or professors.
