HYPER-CERAMICS TESSELLATION Nov, 2019 Melbourne School of Design Robotic fabrication Rhino / Grasshopper / robotic arm Prototyping / fabrication / project management / team collaboration Academic (Master of Architecture)

Hyper-Ceramic Tessellation is a structural innovation that explores the potentials of parametric tools and automated fabrication processes.

Its innovation lies in its three-dimensional interlocking brick system, that achieves tessellation on a hyperbolic surface. As a result, the traditional 'clay brick' was re-imagined through a mass customisation process. The resulting hollowed, undulating brick represents new opportunities for designers to consider materials and structural systems through the lens of new technology.

A team of five students were involved in the design, prototyping, production and construction of the self-supporting clay structure.

The final hyperbolic form and brick geometry were derived through a profound prototyping process; numerous considerations, including tolerances, shrinkages and ease of production, were accounted for.

Meanwhile, a detailed project planning was developed since the early stages to ensure on-time delivery of the final piece.

TAKE A BRICK Nov, 2018 Melbourne School of Design Material research Rhino / Grasshopper / Autodesk Recap / robots arm Material research / advanced technology / experimental architecture Academic (Master of Architecture)

Take a Brick is a semester-long research into a novel 3d-printing material called bioplastic-brick dust composite. The project explores how robotic 3d-printing could promote new ways of building construction, ones that are more sustainable and efficient.

Part 1 of the research involved deriving the right formula of ingredients that balances strength and workability. Part 2 involved the design of walls, columns and vaults prototypes through profound experimentation. The process also involved the design of 3d-printing tools and robot calibration.

An infill pattern was proposed to overcome shrinkage of the material and strengthen the print object. Not only does the project contribute to the exploration of new materials and technology, but it also presents a design opportunity to celebrate tactility and morphological freedom.

Experiments show that one limitation of the bioplastic-brick dust composite is the height limit to the print object (before it collapses). The maximum achievable number of layers is 30 (with 1.6 mm layer thickness). The solution to this problem is to print each object in three parts, which would be assembled after the curing process.

THE CROSSOVER Jun, 2018 Melbourne CBD Commercial (shopping mall) Rhino / Grasshopper / AutoCAD / Vray Form-finding / generative design / parametric tool Academic (Master of Architecture)

The Crossover proposes a new shopping mall on Swanston Street that improves connectivity in the Melbourne CBD, while introducing a new retail typology: ‘retail-tainment’.

Located between two major shopping malls, the new development takes advantage of the hectic flow of people by providing physical and visual linkages between localities. Meanwhile, a parametric design process resulted in a stimulating atrium space and various shop sizes, which encourage the crossover of culture, entertainment and retail.

A collection of existing shops in Melbourne were used to form the building through a Grasshopper script: they were randomly assembled, rotated and scaled and finally form a single block.

Shop fronts collected in the city were applied to the building façades/ shop fronts as a response to the cultural context.

The central atrium, which connects all levels from the underground level to the sixth level, is the heart of the building.

Streams of visitors from Swanston Street, QV and Melbourne Central are directed to the atrium. It is where all activities are displayed and celebrated, giving visitors a sensational experience of a vertical, mega crossing within a vibrant and busy city.

GROUND-MADE

Nov, 2019 Arada, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia Residential (social housing) Rhino / AutoCAD / Vray Socio-economic development / urban development Design thesis (Master of Architecture) This thesis proposes the integration of a food production system into the social housing development in inner Addis Ababa as a strategy to alleviate urban food insecurity. Despite rapid economic growth and urbanisation in recent years, inflation, unemployment and relocations continue to threaten the food security of the urban poor in Addis Ababa.

The resulting architecture of “groundedness” has been derived from extensive research into the urban food system, local housing development and food culture. It is expressed through the building form, courtyard typology, materiality, axes, façades and circulation. A food secure network within the housing complex is supported by a continuous flow from the agriculture land (production) to the courtyards (processing) and household units (consumption) or shops (surplus).

In short, a new social housing typology has been proposed that addresses the need for food security and modernisation while responding to the rich historical and environmental context of this rapidly growing city.

The site in Arada sub-city has a high population density and large areas of slums.

Previously a slum area, the site is now a vacant lot for future housing development.

Its neighbouring slums will also be cleared for new housing and mixed-use corridor developments. The site also suffers from serious environmental degradation, flooding and loss in urban green space.

150 LANGRIDGE ST

Residential (apartment) Jun, 2019 Collingwood, Melbourne Rhino / SketchUp / AutoCAD Housing affordability / family living / communal living Academic (Master of Architecture) 150 Langridge Street is a built-to-rent co-living apartment in Collingwood, Melbourne. It provides long-term rental accommodation for families who cannot afford home-ownership, but still want to live in a place that they call ‘home’. The design aims to deliver quality and community-oriented living spaces to support those families.

This co-living arrangement is founded upon the hierarchy of community: small as one family unit and large as the entire neighbourhood. Careful consideration is given to interfaces between different hierarchical spaces, with the aim to give users a high level of control over privacy against the backdrop of co-living.

The living room, dining room and kitchen are shared between two or three families, while the bathroom remains exclusive to each family. Abundant communal spaces are provided, along with a childcare centre and grocery store that further support family-living and generate additional revenue.

Section B-B

The design is a five-storey timber building. Timber is chosen for its environmental benefits and the ‘warmth’ it adds to the interior spaces. The design consists of two residential wings, which are connected by a concrete core. The building height is a response to its low-rise surrounding. Its orientation to the north allows for better daylight access in each room.

In the centre sits a private courtyard that is visible from Cromwell St. It provides abundant opportunities for greenery and communal activities. All levels are connected by a semi-outdoor vertical staircase. It is more than a means of circulation; it provides pocket spaces for kids and friends to hang out and enjoy the courtyard view.

Section A-A

On Langridge St., The existing faรงade is preserved along with the history of the site. Overall, the faรงade design aims to showcase the timber structure within, with slight variations depending on the orientation.

CONSTRUCTION ANALYSIS

Melton South Commercial (business centre) Jun, 2017 AutoCAD Construction analysis / physical modelling Academic (Bachelor of Environments) This is a study of the construction strategies and building systems of a two-storey business centre in Melton South. It involved the identification and evaluation of structural systems, material selection and architectural detailing in relation to the design intent, building scale, function and geotechnical conditions. The study was based on the cross-referencing of construction drawings, shop drawings and construction photos, and presented in the form of an axonometric drawing and physical model.

HIGH-RISE TOWER

Melbourne CBD Commercial (office tower) Jun, 2018 Rhino / Grasshopper / AutoCAD / Vray Detail drawing / technical drawing / building technology Academic (Master of Architecture) This is a design proposal for a high-rise office building in Melbourne CBD with thorough considerations on economic feasibility, building codes, construction systems, energy performance and maintenance.

The building consists of a reinforced concrete structural system and features a steel diagrid bracing that wraps around the building exterior for lateral resistance. The diagrid bracing also provides for a unique aesthetics and significant environmental benefits (by allowing for a double skin facade).

HERITAGE CENTRE

Hong Kong Feb, 2016 AutoCAD / SketchUp / Photoshop Heritage revitalisation / documentation Internship

Cultural / heritage

This is a heritage revitalisation project I participated during my internship at Meta4 Design Forum. The project involved the transformation of a police station, built in the colonial era, into a heritage information centre. The centre accommodates three gallery spaces and an outdoor cafe; a ramp was added for accessibility requirements. I was responsible for building the SketchUp model as shown above.

A new public toilet was also designed, which is located in the vicinity of the information centre. I assisted in the amendments of the plans, sections and elevations shown on the left.

FACADE DESIGN

Jan, 2017 China Commercial SketchUp Facade proposal / massing studies Internship This is a facade design I proposed during my internship at Arup for a commercial building in China. Energy efficiency was the primary concern. Therefore, terracotta louvres were applied onto the south, east and west-facing faรงades as a shading device.

On the south-facing facade, the louvres form a spiral that aims to express the young and energetic brand image of our client. The louvres wrap around the cylindrical core of the building and create several outdoor spaces as an extension to the indoor communal areas.

Massing studies were conducted using SketchUp to test different possible forms. The proposed design is based on test no. 4, which presents a simplistic yet elegant gesture, while placing emphasis on the central core.
