My name is Bowen LIU, and I am a renctly graudate student of University of Melbourne with a bancholer of environment degree, major in architecture. From my perspective, The Architecture is one of the most valuable and meaningful majors to study. Because architecture is about the making of places where people spend their lives. Architects are not just concerned with the exterior and interior design of a building, but the environment as a whole. Architecture is mostly about human beings living in a “better” way than before. Moreover, It is easy to define Architecture, but the word has far deeper meaning than it implies. Architecture covered various knowledge from almost every aspect such as Art, History, Material Science, Physics, Engineering… Anything and everything that can help improve the living environment of human beings. Although every people recognize the architecture is the most difficult course to take, but I'd love to challenge this and improve myself into another level.

"THE WOOD HOME" UNIVERSITY HIGH SCHOOL The subject is the capstone subject for the Architecture major in the Bachelor of Environments. It is intended that the subject will integrate previous coursework in the major. The core of the undergraduate design sequence is the development of both design thinking and dexterity with tools. The design brief is required us to design a new sports stadium and a learning complex building of the university high school which located at the Royal Parade and Story Street, Parkville. Through the site visit, I found that the old form of building layout created a very depressing box liked, and pool lighting condtion passive learning environment. It lack of enough informal learning area and socializing area.

My concept is tring to create a homely feel that students loves to spend time in there and always feel warm, comfort and social engaged. Just like their second home. Meanwhile, Many of the characteristics of wood are particularly important to my deign. Such as the feelings of natural warmth and the comfort that wood elicits in people has the effect of reducing stress and increasing positive social interactions. Therefore using wood as the main material of my design is the perfect descision.

"THE SRS CORRIDOR" Digital Alchemy is a studio led by tutor David Wegman. Besides fully embraced the parametric design technology, this studio set up a goal to explore the bridge between the self-knowledge expression and digital architecture to humanise and hamonise our connection between ideas of self, design tool and physical form. The generative design approch of this studio is draw the inspiration from the a type of fear. And using the architectural form to heal the original fear. My fear is about the losing control. And my process is the roller coaster. The fear of losing control mainly comes from the sudden and violent acceleration, extreme speed, terrigying height and unpredictable violent twsiting, rotating, and diving movement. Therefore the project SRS Corridol is intend to use its archtectural form and inner space to control people’s behavior and movement to heal the fear of losing control.

First, because the overall structure is very complex and not fully connected. Secondly, The structure itself cannot achieve self-support. The most important thing is that it can not create the interior space which makes it difficult to achieve as architecture. Therefore, under the tutor’'s persuasion, I gave up this design proposal.

I decided to change my proposal from a solid form for people to lean on to the skeletal form with the internal space. People not only could use the form and the outside area but also able to enter and interact with the form via the internal space.
Figure 4: Proposal Close Up View
Therefore, go back to the section of the species exploration. The 4.0.3 is more in line with my new requirements. Compared with the proposal 5, the shape of 4.0.3 is more regular and more likely for people to lean on and have the ability to form the inner corridor space.
Figure 5: New Proposal 1 formed a relatively regular interior space.
Figure 6: The New Proposal 1's form have the change of height which makes people can not always walk straight at the interior space.
4.0.5 Compare to the 4.0.1 and 4.0.2 which are very regular triangles and quadrilateral shapes, the shape of 4.0.4 is much more flexible and interesting. Meanwhile, Compare to the 4.04 and 4.05, Because Although the shapes of these two are very interesting, there is no way to form a relatively regular inner space and the smooth exterior surface for people to lean on. Therefore, in order to compromise the shape and function, I choose the 4.0.3, which not only have relatively interesting form but also could form regular interior space.
Figure 8: The interior air bag mattress design
For internal design, I don't want to leave it blank inside, which only allow people to walk on the ground. I want to add some interior design to help the exterior shape achieve the purpose of my design more profoundly. Figure 7: The opening of the new proposal 1
According to the need, I added an opening on the exterior shape. This opening could lead people into the middle semi-closed space.
The interior design inspired by the SRS (safety airbag system). Because to cure my fear of losing control, the first thing came up to my mind is the SRS. These softbags can save your life when the accident occurs. Meanwhile, These differently sized airbags make it difficult for people to stand and walk in it there it could achieve the purpose of slow people’s movement

3D Print Fabrication Process
Figure 12: New Proposal 1 3D Printing Struggle .
Because of the Grasshopper program, when directly generate the thickness of each frame line work, There will be serious connection problems. The connecting points of each line work can not be matched, Meanwhile, it looks very disordered and different in length of each member. In addition, each member of the framework is all tube shape without the real
Figure 15: Makebot File -- Supporting Material.
Figure 14: Makebot File -- Supporting Material.
After the investigation, there were two reasons, Firstly, The minimum thickness of 3D printing is 2mm, and the original setting was 1.5mm. Moreover, When making printing documents, I should check and choose the options of supporting material. The computer will automatically help analyze the load-bearing capacity of the structure while adding extra supporting material to the appropriate place to solve the phenomenon of structural damage. Figure 16: Makebot File -- Supporting Material.
Figure 13: New Proposal 1 Modification 3D Printing .
The problem is difficult to solve from original grasshopper file. Therefore, I decided to bake the model out of the grasshopper program and then manually fixing the connection, length and the thickness problem with rhino.
Figure 9: Render Perspective 1 SRS Corridor
The SRS Corridor consists of two part, the outside space, and interior space. There is the opening leading people into the middle area. And the entrance of the corridor is on both sides. As for the exterior form of the design, only the triangular frame is the load-bearing structure. Rest of them are all made by the soft material. People don’t have to go inside of the corridor through the entrance. They could pull and open those line frame and step into the interior space. They could pull and open those line frame and step into the interior space. Regarding healing my fear of lose control, the first impression comes up to my mind is the safety equipment could save my life when the accident happen. Such as the SRS(safety airbag). The internal airbag design is driven from this. Secondly. , The sudden and brutal acceleration and the great height is a terrifying factor of losing control. Therefore, I want my design to have the ability to slow down people’s actions and make them have to bend their back or crawl to stay low gravity center. Therefore, because of the exterior form have the change of the height which makes people inside could not always
walk straight. The bumpy, soft airbag makes people cannot run fast or jump. Those factors cause people inside will spontaneously stay low or walk bented or crawl. However, when you give up to trying to get rid of the restriction of the form, and completely keep ur body on the soft airbag you will feel great. The feeling of being wrapped up in the soft stuff. Just like on the bed. It also will make people slow down their movement Meanwhile, in the interior space, The form of the corridor also forms a lot of ramps in the interior space that allow people to lean on. Moreover, because of the line work of the form, The lighting effect inside is quite interesting. It is the feel of twisting. Just like on the roller coaster. But because on the roller coaster, it is so fast. This twisting visual effect makes you feel sick. But when you sit there and see this pattern is quite amazing.

As for the architectural meaning. I want to make this place like the playground for kids and the resting place for parents. The meaning of this design is that the parents won’t worry about their kids got hurt. Because the interior design of the corridor slows people down, the kids couldn’t run fast and make a chase. And because inside is all soft, so even they fall down, they won’t get hurt. So the parents can rest assured that the children play in it.
Form Exploration Compare to the large installation which is through the narrow interior space that the form created to control people’s motion. I wish the new proposal could use its own form and the integration of the environment to make people reach a very comfortable and slow state

Inspired by the beanbag. It allows people to lie in it and feel soft wrapped Therefore, to achieve the shape I wanted, I went back to PartB's species exploration. I found in the doughnut-shaped family 2 has not fully been explored, If i change the twisted direction, the form may produce comfortable and smooth surfaces allow people to lie on. Therefore, I did the further explorations of species family 2

The most important is that there is a plug is designed at the bottom. It can be charged for people. And also provide wifi service. For Wifi Pods, the same idea as the SRS Corridor. To slow down people’s movement. What difference is that the form is more simple. If we could say that the large proposal controls people’s action by the interior form. Then, this design is using its softness and smooth exterior form and function and landscape to slow people’s action and make people feel peace. First of all, let's look at the model. The material used
election Analysis and Further Improvement
2.015 and 2.017 are two relatively good test results. Because they constituted a relatively smooth surface can make people comfortable to lying or lean on the form.
Figure 24: 3D Printed physical model
The feature of 2.015 is that it forms the plumpest and smooth surface I especially enjoy the ramp on the left side. It feels very natural and suitable for people lie on. Secondly, 2.017 forms the shape of the back of the sofa. However, my original idea was to blend form with the landscape. So I do not want the form blocking the landscape. Therefore, the 2.015 was finally adopted Figure 25: 3D Printed physical model

Because especially in places like this park, it's hard to find a place to recharge, And this place not only provides a resting area And it can also serve people who need recharging and wifi. At night, it will also light them self. That’s the reason I apply the bright color over each them is to make them still looks great at night. The colorful light endowed this place the sense of romantic. Young lovers can enjoy the beauty of the night and the slow atmosphere of romance

"THE RARINBOW HOOP" This subject served as an introduction to digital design and the workflow from ideas to the making of physical objects. The brief calls for innovative design of a second skin by using the skin and bone system. The second skin will explore, measure, and/or negotiate the boundary of personal space. Our project focused on exploring the personal space of low vision people. For most of people, the personal space in front of face is relatively big, because the eyes is the part which is open to the outside world and information most. To the contrast, the lackness of eyesight will narrow the demand of personal space around the face area will be smaller than others. Moreover,low vision makes other senses become stronger than normal person.

The project "Rainbow Hoop" is designed for reducing the visual sense and increasing the other sense such as hearing and tactile sense and it was constructed in the skin and bone system. People who are wearing the rainbow hoop could experience the restriction of low vision, but higher auditory sense and tactile sense.
Prototype Test
Final Prototype Optimization
3.1 Fabrication Of Prototype V.2 Through the test of strings patterns, we chose 4 of these ways of connection which are tension patterns, cross patterns, ruled surface patterns and square patterns.
String Patterns Testing And Analysis According to the initial response from the Module 2 recap, therefore, before we build the prototype, we start with testing of strings patterns and analysis its different function. And decided which patters should apply in which part of our model.
Rhombus Pattern 1. Strong tension 2. Fixed at 4 points result in the transform of the plastic circle.
Based on different functions of different connect patterns, we allocate different patterns into the different position in our design to give it best chance to show its advantage. Tension Patterns is performing good in tension. However, the material of 6mm clear vinyl tubing is too light to achieve tension by using its self-weight.
Cross Pattern have ability to create t h e m o st d e n s i t y p atte r n a n d moreover provide the best even force distribution
Squire Pattern 1. Strong tension 2. Repetition and rotation of the squire pattern resulting in the great ability to form the circular for of the bone structure.
Using straw as the bone structure and cut it into different size, put the strings in to the staw and through the way of connecting to form the ruled surface. 1. Beautiful Patterns with hign desnsity. 2. Good in tenstion
Testing string patterns effect on the prototype V.2 In the design of prototype V.2, we decided to use the new bone material which is the 6mm clear vinyl tubing. Based on the issue we have on the M2, therefore, we decided to abandon the real joints and use the strings to play the role of the joints
Ruled Surface Pattern have a really good perform to form a beautiful and complex surface on the tube. Moreover, ruled surface is also a great way of connecting in the position where having the cross of pipes.
Tension Patterns is performing good in tension, however, with the restriction of the self-weight of the tube, the tension patterns only work well in the space of one bent tube. And have good ability to hold its curve.
After making the model, we found that the string pattern will not perform well at 6mm clear vinyl tubing because it is too light and not enough self-weight to keep the string fully in
Tension Pattern 1. Great in tension 2. Especially for two component which having a heavier weight.
3.2 Fabrication Of Prototype V.3
We used different colors of strings to demonstrate its different functions.
Because of the tension pattern's super ability to hold two components which have heavier weight. Therefore, we used tension patterns to act as the load-bearing elements to hold and carry the structure up to the position we want. All these load-bearing elements in tension patterns are in the color of purpose
Moreover, we also used this pattern as the eye cover surface. Because that this is the best way to create the most density surface in a single surface.
3.2 Final Prototype Development
In the design of the prototype V.3, in order to resolve the issue of the prototype V.2, we came up the form of many regular circles, and the bottom circle use the 10 mm transparent pipe to act as the load elements to increase the prototype's self-weight to help the strings expand well and fully in tension. And Same as the prototype V.2, there is no joints between each circle and the strings act as the joints. And we will use different strings patterns in different part to show its different function.
Bone Material Testing
We used the cross patterns on the surface over the head. For a reason is that the cross patterns could provide the most evenly force distribution. Which is the most comfortable way for people to wear?
We tested the acrylic board as the bone structure, and laser cuts it into form and cutting holes on the acrylic board. Then put the strings on it. Through the processing, we found that the acrylic board is too easy to broke.
The whole structure sits on the head and uses its self-weight to expand. However, as the images show that some of the strings were still very loose.We have to use hand to stretch to keep the tension of the strings.
As the picture shown below. Because of our project is using the self-weight as the energy to keep the string fully intension. Therefore, the weight may break the bone structure and also the material of acrylic is relatively light weight.
After analysis of our prototype V.3, we found that, although we add a 10mm transparent pipe at the bottom, still not enough self-weight to let the whole structure expand fully in tention. And the other reason that makes the tension of the strings not enough is that the some of the areas is not evenly stressed.
10 mm transparent pipes 10 mm transparent pipe at the bottom to increase theself weight
10 mm transparent pipe at the bottom to increase theself weight
The square pattern can hold the circular form of the pipe while remaining in good tension. Therefore, the reason we use the square pattern in this area is that we what to keep this semi-circle remain its curve to satisfy the shape we design in the 3d model.
3.7 Assembly Drawing
This pattern is the another version of square patterns. This shape is a triangle pattern; we transfer the square patterns to triangular to allow this patterns to hold the semi-circle shape rather than a circle shape. C4: 1470mm
All this triangle pattern are in the color of green
C1: 1130mm
C2: 1380mm
C5: 1380mm
C3: 1580mm
Moreover, we also used this pattern as the eye cover surface. Because that this is the best way to create the most density surface in a single surface. The ruled surface pattern have the advantages to create a beautiful and intricate surface. Meanwhile, it is also a great way of connecting two pipes cross to each other. Therefore, we decided to use this pattern to some the place where the pipe cross. We used yellow strings to express this. Moreover, we also used red strings in the ruled surface. However, the red string is not used to connecting two pipes cross to each but is for holding the curve form of the pipe while creating beautiful patterns.
