This studio provides opportunities for studio members to analyse urban form and create generative urban design through the creative use of digital scripting platforms.
There are two stages of Zest Out West Studio. In the first stage, the site and brief will be introduced. Site analysis and initial understanding of digital tools in urban design will be taken place, and develop a mini urban design framework for a particular area of interest related to walkability. In the second stage, studio memebers will work in pairs to build further on their individual mini urban design framework and develop into a design.
INDIVIDUAL EXPLORATION
Arden-Macalay is located about 4km west from Melbourne CBD with rich industrial history. Arden-Macaulay has been supporting the city’s economy by manufacuring and production. In recent years, the businesses’ nature of the area has shifted, which leads to an underutilised area with its close proximity to Melbourne CBD.
The concept of walkability and associated techniques are used as the basis for analysing and responding to existing issues of the site.
REFINED FRAMEWORK
By 2030, Melbourne CBD’s population is expectedly to increase by a quarter, inner-west of Melbourne is a fertile site for exploring to face future population growth.

1.1 SITE DOCUMENTATION History of Arden-Macaulay
The Wurundjeri people were the first settlers in the area (Birrarung Valley) 40,000 years ago. They had a presence in the area until 1843, yet few traces of this history remain in the area. The City of Melbourne was formally recognised by the colonial government of New South Wales in 1836. Kensington was part of the City of Essendon on its foundation in 1861, but split to form two separate suburbs in 1882 - Borough of Flemington and Kensington. It was originally known for horse proving grounds, cattle yards and abattoirs and had a lot of large factories. These factories became surrounded by suburbs from the 1860s as the City of Melbourne expanded. Complaints and public meetings objecting to the by-products and waste produced by the saleyards occurred and in 1891, Alfred Deakin (who represented the member for Essendon and Flemington in the Victorian Legislative Assembly) moved a division in favour of the yards’ closure. However, economic downturn in the 1890s allowed the closure to be postponed and a by-law was instead passed by the Melbourne City Council making it illegal to drive livestock through streets in Flemington and Kensington between 8am and 10pm. By 1886 the borough had a population of approximately 6,000, with approximately 20 new buildings opening each month. In 1905, the Borough of Flemington and Kensington was amalgamated with the City of Melbourne.

North Melbourne was added to the City of Melbourne town reserve in 1840. It was formally known as Hotham borough and was one of the first towns in Victoria to be granted Municipal status. It was named in 1859 but then renamed North Melbourne Town in 1887. Throughout the 1840s it served as land for cattle yards, similarly to Kensington and consisted of an unplanned scattering of buildings. In the early 1850s the suburb was still known for it’s rich greenery and many Red Gum trees. However, the population growth from the gold rush led to the greater need to accommodate people. The building of a benevolent asylum between Abbotsford St and Curzon St helped facilitate this and became a dominant landmark of the area throughout the 19th century. In 1859, the Melbourne Gas Company installed pipes in North Melbourne and the water supply was connected to the Yan Yean supply in the mid 1860s, resulting in clearing of vegetation. By 1861 the suburb had a population of over 7,000 (1740 dwellings) and in 1869 the Hotham Football Club was formed (today know as the North Melbourne Kangaroos). By the 1880s, North Melbourne was established as a working class area with small areas of the middle class. Heavy industry such as iron works were established in the area. The 1890s brought tram routes, further facilitating growth. However, by the 1930s many areas became overcrowded and defined as slums. This lead to large government housing development projects completed in 1960s, some of which still exist today (for example, the site on Boundary Rd within Arden-Macaulay).

The week 1 site was located next to the North Melbourne Football Club, and allowed us to assess our Rhino skills and where it could be improved. Personally I have a very basic knowledge of Rhino up to this point whilst being comfortable with creating basic geometry and massing, am not able to utilize the tools to its full potential.

WEEK 2 - BASIC GH Introduction to GH By beginning with simple extrusions using the circleCNR tool, we could progress quickly to incorporating the distance component, which we could then use the output value to determine a shifting radius based on distance to the determining point. This could then be taken further to influence the height of the extrusion too, and set the base for further individual exploration.

CONTENTS INTRODUCTION
We could then inverse this relationship by setting the expression 1/x to create the opposite effect - increasing height closer to points instead of decreasing it (fig.3 appendix). From this we could build onto the exercise for 2.3 which is addressed in the UDF section of this journal.

The isovist field is defined to represent “the panoptical view a person has from a given point in an urban space. It is used for orientation or wayfinding in the urban fabric.” (Hoeven & Nes 2013). We are able to quickly create isovist fields from a point based on existing geometry, both 2D and 3D analyses are possible and provide another dimension to perception of spaces in the urban realm.

FAR CALCULATOR TRIAL As a result of individual concept interests, I was interested in finding if we could set a target FAR for a parcel and block. The result was successful for individual parcels, but was unable to be replicated at multiple parcels as the data became mixed and not usable. This can be seen in the GH results shown in FIG.4 and FIG.5 in the appendix. If this could be applied at mass then it would’ve been a very useful tool.

While it was ultimately successful, there are limitations, such as the inability to precisely determine values for z factor, relying instead on the values which image sampler gains from the different brightnesses of a raster image.

In order to give different weight to different parcels as part of the concept development, we began looking at image sampler and how it could influence different heights of extrusions (fig.6) appendix).

2.2 MINI URBAN DESIGN FRAMEWORK
WEEK 1 UDF The individual line of development which led to the presentation in week 4 began from our studies of the week 1 site, where we began to look at the range of issues which the ArdenMacaulay area posed. Brief experimentation resulted in; the retainment of several industrial components on-site, whilst new development occured at the fringes along arterial roads, whilst keeping innerblock permeability open to allow pedestrians to have multiple choices in their network.

INTRODUCTION
CONTENTS MACAULAY STATION
Following the week 1 exploration, the key walkability issues which I were interested in were mainly the lack of permeability due to the industrial-sized blocks, as well as an opportunity for transit-oriented development to occur closer to transport nodes. We can see that in neighbouring residential areas, blocks are of a much smaller size than they are near Macaulay Station due to the large block sizes. These pose a limitation to the permeability of the pedestrian network and could be resolved better as development inevitably occurs in this area.

This then brings up further questions such as the interface between the rising buildings and the freeway, as well as issues of inundation which the area currently sits within. In this particular scenario, the concept pushes for the street to be activated parallel to Moonee Ponds Creek to link to Arden Stn and Boundary Rd.

An alternative to the intentions of the structure plan, by instead proposing a vertical north-south activation, we keep a consistent proximity to the creek as you move along the retail/commercial strip. This also effectively links Arden Stn to Macaulay Stn as well as into the site further north. The journey also moves past several key open spaces such as NMFC.

The presence of several unoccupied lots presents a great opportunity to not only foster new development, but to ensure that permeability is carried through by retaining pedestrian networks throughout without the need to work through existing conditions.
APPENDIX
Two main site characteristics which were important to me were the presence of the site’s former industrial history, which persists still to this day. Some lots will be able to re-locate, others such as Allied Mills will be hesistant to do so, having spent a considerable sum of money on renovations at their current site. This provides a diverse range of building stock, some of which can be retrofitted

END OF INDIVIDUAL DEVELOPMENT +increasing residential population +increasing density the primary focus of the individual inquiry was to begin to develop a narrative which asks the question: how can we examine the potential scenario of increasing residential density in Arden-Macaulay, and how can we accomodate this growth and visualize it through digital scripting to better guide our design? residential density is the primary focus, in order to clarify the use of the term ‘density’ which can mean many other elements.

3. Intervene Using this information to zoom in on ‘hotspots’ and pedestrian movement in order to propose interventions such as sun paths on open space, retail land use, community facilities etc.
+increasing residential population +increasing density whilst the initial question being asked is quite simple: how can we accomodate density in an established area? there are many issues I intend to face along the way which will no doubt ad complexity to the issue. how big will each average dwelling be? what is this size determined by? are population forecasts inherently self-fulfilling? what will increased density mean for urban rhythm and flow? is transit-oriented design always the correct assumption? can we set alternatives to height limitations on structure plans, perhaps letting go of prescriptive standards in favour of performative criteria, e.g site must accomodate x dwellings.

CONTENTS INTRODUCTION SITE ANALYSIS
The core concept drew from Tschumi’s Parc de la Villette in terms of utilizing ‘points, lines and surfaces’ as a method of re-structuring the approach.
CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT
Development of land uses was originally intended to be organized into clusters based on the distinctive experiences which can be found from one cluster to the next.
APPENDIX
The initial joint proposal incorporated the element of wayfinding from Jessica Li’s individual work. There is an interest in the idea of how people perceive the spaces around them as a means of navigating the city.

INCREASED DENSITY TO ACCOMODATE FUTURE POPULATION GROWTH WITHOUT COMPROMISING THE DISTINCTIVENESS OF SPACE FOR WAYFINDING
“The keys to this are density and mixed land use, which grow from the need to have sufficient people living nearby and sufficient work, shops, schools, etc. within walking distance.” (Peter Newman, 1996) “To understand cities, we have to deal outright with combinations or mixtures of uses, not separate uses, as the essential phenomena.” (Jane Jacobs, 1961) “People need an identificable spatial unit to belong to... Help people to define the neighbourhoods they live in.” (Alexander et al., 1977)

Framework Development Throughout this stage of the process we focused on development of the urban design framework from which to make an enquiry. We are able to see the progression of the intent and focus of the core concept shifting from a wayfinding focus towards a more refined idea of addressing density and land use mix as the key issues to respond to.

3.2 MINI UDF - Mid Semester Conceptual Proposal
COMMERCIAL USE
Key issues which were raised from this review in mid-semester included: The rational behind the initial clusters of recreational, commercial and institutional use - why they are important and if there is a consideration of other land uses. This ultimately led to a higher resolution of mix in the final proposal, both overall and within each building. The key question however was still regarding how we can use digital tools to provide evidence for the distribution of density, and how density relates to land use - this formed the basis of our focus for the remainder of the semester.

These concepts will be explored using digital tools and will help us provide evidence for an alternative framework to guide future development. In our view, walkability is a concept which describes the extent to which a person is able to access his/her daily needs by active modes of transport, with an emphasis on travel made by foot. It advocates for an urban future which makes the automobile all but redundant, where communities are healthier, supportive and vibrant. Designing for walkability is essential for all metropolitan cities in order to thrive in this new age of urbanity. WHY? Density and land use mix are the central aspects of our scheme because we wanted to focus on these as the main components towards improving walkability in ArdenMacaulay. This gives us room to explore these concepts more in-depth, and allows us to have a central focus when considering how digital methods can be applied to guide us in our design proposal. The two elements are identified as important factors which contribute to a ‘walkability index’ in a paper by Frank et.al (2006), as well as in other literature by Jacobs (1961), which sets out several key aspects regarding density, block size, and land use mix that we have used as general guiding principles for the formulation of our proposal. Within the scope of site-specific issues, the need to densify is an obvious issue in Arden- Macaulay and thus needs to be addressed first and foremost,. The question therefore is not ‘if’ we need to densify, it is ‘how’. By using digital tools, we can explore various methods of distributing density such as ‘transit-oriented-development’, as well as other factors such as including incentives for density based on network connectivity. The emphasis on land use mix also stems from the Frank et.al (2006) paper as well as Jacobs (1961): “to understand cities, we have to deal outright with combinations or mixtures of uses, not separate uses, as the essential phenomena.”. Through increasing land use mix, we will reduce travel distances and times by meeting daily needs locally, with one trip being able to undertake many activities. Finally, density and land use mix were also the main factors which we identified early in the semester as being key walkability issues which needed to be addressed in the future development of Arden-Macaulay, naturally making the transition into the paired group concept.

CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT
INTRODUCTION SITE ANALYSIS INDIVIDUAL EXPLORATION
Our methodology can be considered in three stages; density, land use mix, and how they interrelate to set up a framework for our proposal. The first is to explore potential scenarios in which density is driven by different factors such as proximity to transit nodes and network connectivity, each of which we developed a script to visualise. Land use mix is concurrently developed as as a series of ‘desire’ heatmaps in which we identify particular needs based on surrounding context. Finally, we consider how the two concepts can manifest in Arden-Macaulay and how they relate to each other to create varying conditions in our resulting proposal. Land use mix requires population density, and vice versa. Therefore this methodology gives us an opportunity to hypothesise the ‘what if’, and explore different scenarios of distributing density and land use mix as the basis of a new urban proposal. The resulting methodology eventuated because it is not a hyper-prescriptive proposal, and leaves room for flexibility and doesn’t seek to govern an exact outcome, but rather sets out an overall framework from which an outcome can be reached. Whilst we cannot dictate exactly what happens in each building to achieve an ‘optimal’ outcome, we should embrace the open-ended nature of urban design and its many contributing factors. It recognises that our role is to provide a framework for development which sets principles to give coherency to an urban form as each separate development occurs. Alexander states that each building should contribute to a ‘wholeness’ of the district, which we have considered whilst formulating our methodology to ensure that the function and role of each block and buildings within should contribute to a distinct overall coherence in the Arden-Macaulay area as a whole. “This means that you cannot consider the environment by breaking it down into small parts, but you need to see it as a set of units, which support and enhance each other in a complex and interdependent whole.” (Alexander 1965)
CONCEPT DEVELOPMENT
METHODOLOGY
APPENDIX
Whilst our proposal does not draw from any single precedent extensively, there have been a myriad of influencing theories and projects which have influenced our thinking in some way, shape or form. In ‘A New Theory of Urban Design’, it states that “every building increment must help to form at least one larger whole in the city, which is both larger and more significant than itself” (pp. 38-39). This provoked us to think about how the distribution of land use mix and density ultimately sets up various conditions in which buildings should collectively contribute to the success of that precinct. MVRDV’s ‘Vertical Village’ (Maas 2012) also contributed to the thinking behind the distribution of land use mix, that for every functional use there is an ‘preferred’ set of urban conditions which would help to support its performance: for example retail benefits from heavy pedestrian traffic on ground floors of busy streets, therefore we can help to aid its success by locating it in an area where it has the best chance of succeeding.

Transit - Oriented Development
These digital tools allow us to respond to these questions and the main site issues by opting for a transit-oriented development, where each parcel has a relationship to the closest transit site which determines its relative proximity. This is done using the shortestwalk component which uses the st network to find walkable catchments, as opposed to direct attractor pts that we used earlier in the semester

The question is not if we increase density, but how it is distributed.

Network - Oriented Development To respond to the large blocks and unoccupied lots and explore the idea of assessing the site’s network connectivity to essentially allow more permeable blocks to be awarded higher density distributions. This method breaks the site into a grid of sample points, where each point becomes a catchment that analyzes the length of the street network which is ultimately assigned to the parcel as a proxy of network connectivity.

This method is adapted from an earlier script which analyzes the number of point intersections in a site and produces a heatmap based on the results.

Why both methods? To take into account different scales of urban conditions, with the presence of intersections and increase the accuracy of results

Formula, Site Conditions This provided the initial formula for assessing network connectivity which we adapted and changed to ultimately shape our final digital tool methodology. This was also a key text which showed that a range of site condtions could be visualised using traditional scientific methods such as graphs.
78
DESIGN DEVELOPMENT
We were influenced by many of the ideas in these texts which based their proposals on the idea that each dwelling or land use had an ‘ideal’ or ‘suitable’ environment and position in which they belonged. This provoked us to think about what are the conditions condusive to each land use, and heavily influenced the methodology of the final proposal.

Suitability of Land Use Each micro-block can be described in terms of its assigned F.A.R, distance to transit and overall network connectivity. This produces a varying set of urban conditions across the site. ArdenMacaulay site locations can be selected and matched to the various set of urban conditions and analyzed according to contexual influences at macro and micro scale. This then allows us to make evidence-based decisions regarding the distribution and suitability of land use allocation across the site, which is then refined contexually.
