INTRODUCTION The site analysis began from the city scale and gradually proceeds into detailed scrutiny of the site. Placing the site on both a broader urban and regional context allows depth of comprehension beyond the local scope. The exrmination thus, looks beyond climate conditions into surrounding urban frabics, connectivity and accesssibility of neighbourhood.

Collaged render based on modiied model - Buffer space created on the deck by the extra layer of operable rotating n, each panels could be rotate and collapsed. The blades on the panel are also adjustable, giving maximum user controls to adapt to different conditions. Such device ensures visibility of the glazing by enabling high VT glass panes installed even under extremely high WWR (166% on Living area facade); The ns also act as privacy and environmental lter when using as screens.

Site plan showing the layout of the modiied envelope and its relation to the surroundings at a basic level.
The master bedroom is the best performing program space across the three researched areas, the slim skylight opening ensures adequate daylights, whilst the louvred patio act as a thermal buffer zone, reverse brick veneer is also illustrated to show building
Finned skylight openning penetrates the circulatory core from the rooftop. Bringing in natural lights and stack ventilation during summer - where previously tends to be no sunlight permitted into the building. Secondary blinds are also operable - Shut/Open.
Linework and shadowed render showing ns being ‘shut’ and thus creating a semi-open space/sunroom on the decking to be use outside the original envelope.
The study space has been successfully converted from being the worst performing space into a exible, adaptable working zone meeting the IEQ comfort requirements, a space that accomodates the needs of different tasks where luminosity and thermal comfort are vital.
Villa Gala
INTRODUCTION The worldwide pandemic has altered the relationships of residents with public spaces and others. The growth of private space and the creeping commercialisation of public space have blurred the already fuzzy boundaries between public and private spheres. Constant lockdowns and tumultuous daily routine inside concrete jungles lead to desperate yearning for nature. This moment in our history could leave a lasting imprint on every resident mentally and physically as well as how we live and interact. Australia is well-known for natural sceneries and resources which have been heavily impacted by bushhre crisis and current pandemic. Forestry workers played an important role in the bushhre crisis, they have made great contributions to establishing, restoring and conserving our natural forests. However, During the Pre-Pandemic era, hundreds of forestry workers were at imminent risk because of the lack of protection houses. In this case, by nding a balance within the exible living and working lifestyle, creating healthy and environmentally sustainable space where our users feel included and which promote activity and connection to nature becomes the main goal of our design intervention. By redeening public and clearly private boundaries would encourage interaction between two of the users. Therefore, we want to provide a user-focused natural sanitarium at Barron Gorge National Park in Kuranda Forest that accommodates and supports local forestry workers in response to the local environment and their lives after pandemics. We decided to name this project as Villa Gaia. Gaia is the goddess of earth, nature and wild animals in greek mythology which represents our core concept of creating a shelter with access to nature and link between the sky and ground for local forestry workers to live and heal.
