design studio beta> PLEASURE GARDEN
I’ve recently completed my Bachelor’s degree at the University of Melbourne majoring in Architecture. Originally from Brisbane, I moved to Melbourne in 2018 to pursue University away from the comfort of my family home and have loved it from day one.
ABOUT ME
Alongside my passion for architecture, I love getting on the tools. I’ve previously held various labouring positions on construction sites, a timber yard and a caravan repair shop. These positions have allowed me to learn from masters in their respective trades, whether it be on a building site, or inside a caravan.

the LIBRARY and the CITY
BRIEF Design a new public library for the City of Melbourne, to be located at 124-140 Little Bourke Street.
REJECTION and DISRUPTION The city is a constant reminder of colonisation, manifested in street names, building typologies, landscapes and industrialisation. Through the rejection and disruption of the cities forms, social orders and institutionalism, the library can envisage new intercultural relationships for everyone to experience.

RIGHT_The building does not follow the rectilinear grid and begins to push and pull throughout the site interrupting the street and the citizens within it.

STANDARD APPROACH
LIBRARY
CONCEPT
LEFT_The colonial 25m long x5 m wide block typology commonly seen throughout the city is transformed into a physical decline and rejection of the architecture and the beliefs that come with it. EXTEND BUILDING HEIGHT
CONTINUE LANEWAYS
Disrupt the form of the street. Disrupt the common misconceptions of the First Nations people. Disrupt the comforts and norms of a colonial city with dark history.
DECOLONISATION APPROACH
DISRUPT present
REJECT past
Reject colonialism into the ground. Reject colonial heritage in the heart of the system. Reject the history that has been written and learnt for 250 years. push/pull
LIBRARY
COLLABORATE future
Rejecting the clean lines, foreign architectural forms, can we envisage a new future for all peoples of this land.

EXPLODED ISOMETRIC 1:200 @ A3
RIGHT_The ground floor begins to reject some of the core values of Melbournes CBD, the bluestone, brick and the Hoddle grid.
LIBRARY
LEFT_ The journey throughout the site is such that one has to experience the building from different viewpoints at each level they interact with.

LIBRARY
SECTIONS
LEFT_In section the building is a mix of intimate and expansive level heights with an atrium placed in the centre of the building to create a visual connection between all floors and incite collaboration.

LIBRARY
PERSPECTIVES
ABOVE_The footpath turns into a small pocket park and extended into the road to minimise the chaos of vehicular traffic. LEFT_A weathered exterior is contrasted by a warm plywood interior.
LIBRARY
FAR LEFT_The form pushes and pulls in different directions, not conforming to the regular city pattern of recti-linear blocks following a European heritage strategy.

design studio epsilon:
collective housing
BRIEF The topic of Studio Epsilon is collective housing and the design of multi-residential buildings in the present context of middle-ring suburbs in Melbourne, characterised by demographic changes, economic pressures and diversified ways of living.
EXPLORING the ORDINARY In this project there was an intent to make ordinary processes and spaces into places of joy to encourage the occupant to focus their attention back to the fundamentals of living. By connecting the user back to the spaces that humanise us, the design seeks to give the user awareness of self.

RIGHT_The elevation begins to negotiate between pale pink corrugate sheeting and unfinished concrete which gives the building a strong base in the landscape.

THE PLEASURE GARDEN
BRIEF A central mandate of the studio is to create an environment where buildings and gardens are arranged in a manner that is coordinated and complimentary.
the BROKEN COURTYARD The garden represents a series of broken down courtyards forming into coherent spaces for private and public to interact. Where a courtyard encloses the space, the built form here contracts and expands to invite users across the entire site. The harsh, recti-linear lines of the forms are contrasted by the lush garden space in which the forms sit.

construction: ANALYSIS
Construction Analysis explores the idea of construction as a process that strategically links structural principles to building elements, systems, materials, and techniques. In this assignment we investigated John Wardle Architect’s Lake Wendouree house.

construction: DESIGN
Construction Design moves from the analysis of specific architectural ideas to arrive at the evaluation and selection of implementation alternatives. This is investigated by studying a section of William Boag’s Architects Victorian College of the Arts Secondary School.
