PROJECT I 2010 SEMESTER I PRECEDENT STUDY

MOTHER HOUSE BY ROBERT VENTURI

A precedent study conducted to emphasize architectural rendering technique. This project adopted Beaux-Art technique of poche rendering which relates to the importance of psychological aspect of human connection. Poche rendering focuses on internal spaces by shading different “pockets” of internal space to show the ambience and the interconnection of spaces. PLAN RENDERING

MOTHER HOUSE BY ROBERT VENTURI

A model making process that allows better understanding of the building composition and spaces connection. A sectional model was produced to investigate the atmosphere of the building interior. In this project, the building spaces were arranged around the central chimney which consists of a core staircase.

MODEL RENDERING

AUTODESK REVIT + PHOTOSHOP PROJECT II 2010 SEMESTER II UNSW DESIGN STUDIO 4

Inspired by the core mapping- Threshold, my design concept is basically based on five key points of architecture which are oasis, stack, porosity, gateway and filter. The arrangement of each space is based on a linear program, from noisy to quiet. By arranging the noisy space such as cafĂŠ on the ground and elevating the main library off the ground, it provides a more quiet and tranquil environment.

MATRAVILLE PUBLIC LIBRARY

Physical model was produced to understand the relationship of the building form, the site and its adjacent buildings. The proposed library design fits into the site context, complementing its adjacent buildings’ height. The solid skin of the library effectively filter out the noise from the main road. The addition of garden softens the edge of the library and creates a natural meeting place for Matraville community.

The main concept of this project is derived from the nature process - coastal erosion. By identifying the 5 core elements of this process which are stone, wave, layering, erosion and stacking, i attempted to translate these five points into my design. These five architectural points govern my whole design process and allow my final design solution to respond to the natural farces within the site.

INTERPLAY OF LIGHT an essential quality that mining workers long for.

Being on the site, we are exposed to harsh conditions such as penetrating sunlight and extremely hot temperature. On ground, we will instinctively search for natural sunshade to avoid the scorching hot sunray. While being underground, we enjoy the cool temperature but long for the presence of natural sunlight. Inspired by the mining industry in Lightning Ridge, the Dugout is designed to manipulate the interplay of light in each space and take full advantage of the earth for better human comfort.

TREE WITHIN TREE

TREE WITHIN TREE

Tree within tree is set in a secluded mangrove wetland, which is only accessible using boat. The house (artificial tree) is built around a mangrove tree, where the tree depends on the house for support against coastal erosion while we rely on the tree for food. Living under tough environment with frequent tidal inundation and high salinity, mangrove trees manage to withstand the roughness of its habitat. Thus, the combination of house and the mangrove tree will help we modern-age people to experience both the richness and the toughness of the swamp area and sense our relationship to it.

In ancient time, coastal dwellers relied on river, tree and boat to survive. In our current age, most coastal areas are well developed, in which most of the rivers have been exploited and changed to highway, boats to motorcar and trees to skyscraper. We, modern city dwellers no longer appreciate of the power of nature. Thus, tree within tree is designed in such way to allows us to recall the lives of our ancestor.

FINAL PRESENTATION BOARD

URBAN PLAYSCAPE

52 million tyres reach the end of their life in Australia every year, and approximately only 13% are recycled. Our design showcases the amount of unrecycled tyres that reach the end of their life in Australia every 10 minutes, which is 860 tyres. Numbers are labeled on the tyres to indicate the number amount of tyres present on site.

The un-recycled tyres, when combined with the principles of a children's playground, create an Urban Playscape, an artificial environment that encourages people to play, rest and engage with the area. The site has been deliberately designed to not house specific activities, but to encourage one to use their imagination. Our design aims to promote sustainability issues in a new fun, interactive way through the combination of vibrant artificial landscape with reusable discarded tyres. After the installation the tyres can be recycled and donated to construct new children's playgrounds.
