16/09/16 Jack Bryce City of Gold Coast PRIVATE & CONFIDENTIAL Dear Jack, Re: Preliminary proposal design for Beenleigh Co-House Community It is pleasure to meet with you about your project and we are going to summarise the preliminary project brief and site analysis in this letter; We have summarised our understanding of your preliminary brief in accordance with our recent discussions to allow us to evaluate the approximate size and complexity of the project. The cohousing project is designed for the residents and provide the communal space in order to improve the sense of the community, the key components in the project: 1. Individual, private homes, space and ownership 2. Community relationships and generous, multi-use common facilities 3. A healthy balance between community and privacy 4. Elements of self-management, trust and familiarity 5. Stronger sense of community To summarise the estimated built area associated with the project, for example:
Estimated area: Approx. 1200m2 including garage. Note: The approximated areas outlined above represent indicative estimates only and are likely to change as the brief and design evolve. 4
SITE ANALYSIS As the site analysis, the project is locate in the Main Rd in the Beenleigh town centre, which is designed as the high street quality with amount of the pedestrian in the street, therefore the entry of the Main Rd is primary for the public pedestrian which are attracted by the cafĂŠ and the restaurant; the other entry for the private apartment is located in the other side of the street which is closed to the car park; also it is separated from the private and the public to improve the safety. In each level we have the communal space for different activities to increase the interaction of the residents and improve the sense of the community: the gym, laundry room, outdoor BBQ, swimming pool, roof garden and the open air cinema, these communal activities are located in the west side of the building which is also toward to the Main Rd and the north side is the apartment side, to achieve the maximise sunlight in the private living room. Therefore the building is going to be the L shape. There is a semi- public courtyard is on the back of the building which is the buffer zone from the commercial to the residential zone. In conclusion, the project is maximise the communal functions with the private apartment to increase the community activities and sense of neighbourhoods. Therefore the programs are richness and interactive. Also from the site analysis the preliminary project is designed as the L- shape with the west wind is the communal function and the north wind is the apartment space, also the semi- public courtyard is creating the transforming zone from the commercial to the residential. We look forward to your confirmation, which will lead to our preparation of a copy of the Client and Architect Agreement for signing, but please do not hesitate to call us if you have any questions. Yours sincerely, Y& M Architecture

Beenleigh Co- Housing adopts the ‘Communal living space’ combine of the communal kitchen and co- living model originating in Europe. The project addresses a sense of community by providing stable high quality communal facilities and the permanent housing. The building is both social housing to provide units to the low- income families as well as the institutional building to provide working and learning environment in the building. The building is sitting in L shape and the north side is the residents entry with the car park entry; the west side is the public entry and pedestrian entry to increase the high street quality and provide more benefit on the ground floor restaurant and the cafĂŠ and bookshop. As the levels go up, the program will transfer from the public to the private to provide security and casual surveillance for residents and visitors. In the typical floor the program will include the communal activities space and the residents unit as well as the outdoor garden is the buffer zone of the public and the private. The project set the goal a 5 star Green Star rating for design and the green wall and the green space is special designed consultant to achieve the sustainable design. 11
Communal Living Space
This project is located in the edge of the town center in Beenleigh which is the end of Main Road, beyond the site there is a large area of the low density of residential area will be benefit for the restaurant and the cafĂŠ bookshop in the ground floor of the co- housing. This is activated the town center and beyond though the food and fun at the daytime and weekend. Also at night, the restaurant will provide the stage of the live show for the local arties and the musicians to give the opportunity for remaining the local culture. The value of beyond the Beenleigh, this project is by giving the opportunity of living style for people to have the community space with the neighborhood. The kitchen, cafĂŠ and bookshop support to the public, on the other hand, the gym, the communal garden, laundry room and the outdoor BBQ space support to the community life to the residents.

Therefore, the project is not only the living unit for the residents but also the social and communal activities will bring the intentional community of people living together, sharing common interest, often have common values and beliefs, as well as share property, possessions and resources. (Via wiki) The social value of the co- housing is to support the intentional community and enhance the sharing and openness to the world. Also the project collaborates the green wall and green terrace to achieve the sustainable design to address the environment value, by using the storm water for the communal garden and the green wall to be the natural thermal protection. In addition, to the economic value, the co- housing will provide the working and learning space for everyone, adding the cash flow for the community purpose and give it back to the community will increase the motivation of the working and living with purpose and intention.

History about Brisbane Powerhouse
The Brisbane Powerhouse is the formal Electrical power station for the tramway system in Brisbane city from 1920s to the 1970s. The original architecture designed in 1928 by Architect Roy Rusden Ogg and it is designed with three sections, the boiler house, switch house and the turbine room with the industrial structural elements. The power station is supplied the electricity to the tramway system until the last tram in 1969, also it is produced power to the suburbs in Brisbane. In 1971, the power station is decommissioned and abandoned for the homeless and street kids. The mainly material is the bricks and it used the load bearing masonry on the external wall which can remained intact of the whole building except the boiler house was demolished in 1984. After it was abandoned, the mission of the Brisbane city council, to refurbish the power station and make it reuse of the art and culture hub as the significant example of the industrial design of the art deco period. 16

Now & Here & This The old brick wall is showing history and culture value to the visitors from all over the world in their first sight. Also you will found the graffiti are remained as showing the time of the abandoned left over after the industrial over development, however, the design of this project changes the safety and access of the public realm. When you get into the entry there is heavy structure is also showing the remnant industrial period of Brisbane. However, the special composition and complexity is showing the modern taste of the culture to the worldwide visitors. With the extension of the riverside balcony will served as the restaurant and bar for attract more people to come over. Therefore, Brisbane Powerhouse is one of the “old generation� become innovative and international contemporary art space.
18
Enthusiasm & Engagement In the urban scale, the culture precinct along on the Brisbane River to renewal urban life through the art and culture, gives the cultural hub in the urban life, the Powerhouse Art center is not except. Also the Powerhouse is giving the blurred judgment of the cultural and aesthetic through its design by remain the robust style steel beam and the raw concrete material to express the ideas more wild and brave. The interior circulation is not only the connection of the different stages, but also the art gallery and the temporary exhibition for different art projects in the gallery walkways and the balcony. The intention is to offer more engagement and the interaction between the audience and the artist in different dimensions of sense, such as visual, smell and texture.

To express the design of architecture is to highlight of the value of
culture in Brisbane urban life. The Brisbane Powerhouse gives the vision of the culture vision by the architecture language, the material, the spatial composition and the connection within the cultural hub along the river.

IS THE TECHNOLOGY A BENEFIT SOLUTION OF ARCHITECTURE DESIGN TO THE HUMAN ACTIVITIES IN FUTURE October 9, 2016. 8.00 pm ICD Institute for Computational Design Supplied
There is research project on the computation design in architecture hold by ICD, Institute for Computational Design, Faculty of Architecture and Urban Planning in University Stuttgart every year. The Professor Achim Menges is aiming to explore the integrative technologies and architectural design process. There are pavilions are expressed the concepts every year and in this article I will address the advanced technology and the design process through the 2016 Pavilion in Victoria & Albert Museum, London. The project is focus on the interactive relationship between architectural design and engineering, using the advanced technology in computation design, robotic fabrication and the biology material to explore the architectural spatial and aesthetic quality, which lead us to unfold the structural engineering, environment engineering and production engineering through the process of design. The technologies impact on the whole process, from the computational design, the making process while the visitors experience will give the result to the masterpieces. The designs of the dynamic space and the evolving structure are the response of the real inhabitation of the garden over time through the sensing data. This design offers the opportunity of the urban public activities the vision of the future of the inner city.

DESIGN EXPLORATION The design concept is come from the Victoria Greenhouse, which is the first industrial revolution to explore the new material and structural in architecture and engineering in the new explorative manner. To similar with the spirits of the manner, the recently developed material and structural system is adapted with the robotics development. The Victoria Greenhouse is not only explored the new technology but also the unique way of living with the interior green space, to adapt this concept, the canopy creates the semi outdoor environment in the urban context. In additional, the quality of the living nature condition is critical of the design process. The research explores the working principle of the natural process in design and engineering as the reservoir of the biology. Found the inspiration of the lightweight of the construction in nature, the design research is integration of the architecture, structure and biomimetic to explore to transfer the biological fibre system into architectural structure, so called “elytra filament pavilion�

ENGINEERING INTEGRATION The engineering process is also inspired by the natural principle. The fibre composition in natural is commonly structural system and the fabrication implies the natural structural, as the result the composition is different morphologies and efficient resource, in other words, the fabrication use less materials and more forms. The major material of the pavilion is two parts, the canopy and the column, which are using different material as the form and the structural are in different responsible. The transparent glass fibre form a spatial scaffold and the column is using the black carbon fibre which is more stiffness and strength to compare with the glass fibre. The construction process invites the robotic fabrication by using the winding system to build the canopy and the column. The advantage of this process is to reduce the waster to minimise and also to reuse the recyclable materials.

EVOLVING SPACE The public access in the space will make the change of the design and fabrication process by using the sensor technologies. There are two sensors to give the result of the human activities and the natural conditions, which are the activity movement senor and the weather thermal sensor. These sensors allow the growing of the spatial and the structure development from the robotic fabrication during the exhibition time from the behavior of the visitors and the weather condition. Therefore the structure is the evolving time and space by giving the data from the real life and the real people under the structure. This research project gives us the example that it is time for technology in computational design impact on the design process through the concept design, construction and the materiality.

08. REFLECTIVE WRITING Dear Diary...
10.10 The video group assignment is significant as it is contribution of everyone in different re-
sponsibilities. The five students are have different roles and the principle of the group organized the major work for everyone. The other students give their responsible to their own parts. I am in charge one part of the video, which is about the conflict in the office culture. By researching the theoretical information and the offer the question in the video. The others are has different parts of the video, and one of the group member is in charge to put everyone’s work together and make the final video for this assignment.
The assignment is a teamwork
outcome, and we distribute the work to different parts of the video, everyone has their own responsible in the group work. It is indisputable that one of us is more responsible to put everyone’s work together, however, we discuss to have the same format to fill up and it makes the work less complicated. For this group work, I feel there is a leader who in charge of the group and we can all agree with the decision out of the discussion, therefore we are working in very efficient way to do the group work.
34
In this type of work, everyone need to contribute to the final result and we need to have the
common goal which is discussed among the group from the start of the group work. However, the participation and the activation of the group discussion is really important to the group and we valued everyone’s opinion. It can improve in the future profession practice and take the responsibility for the group work and build the contribution to group work in the future practice. Another contribution of the group work is the one who took the charge of the group, I think in the position, you make more efforts and contributions to the group work, I think this the good opportunity to learn the leadership of the profession practice in future. However, I am not very good at the organization. From the group work, we are keep the meeting minuets and the agendas for our communications, which is the good communication skill to be encouraged in the future practice.
By teaching the practical skills and the working simulation for us to understand how to work in the professional practice and make a good future is the main focus of this subject. I think I learnt the skills and the more understand about the office practice from this subject.
