A picturesque place to be to play with friends and family in a relaxed atmosphere The Paddocks always be the sports centre during the past decades. However, it did not play a big role to improve the nearby residents` physical and social health problem. Council has considered a number of options to upgrade The Paddocks Community Centre which has served the community well in the past. Council needs to use the income of residents for their health improvement, and forming a virtuous circle. There are 3 schools, Uni SA, more than 10 sports clubs and almost 20 recreation spaces or green corridors around Paddocks. Depending on the gradient, there are 6 main storm water drains and 6 valley go through the wet land in The Paddocks. The green corridors and storm water in the valley will be built as the landscape walking(cycling) trails to connect the education area, sports club, and recreation spaces with The Paddocks. In The Paddocks, there are more sports spaces and facilities will be built and updated, which adept to different residents. The elements on The Paddocks were collected, which is bike imprint, pets` footprint and soccer boost footprint. Using the bike imprint be the connection area, the pets` footprint be the big area, and the soccer boost footprint be the enclosed spaces. Using the yin-yang method to divide The Paddocks, north of The Paddocks will be the sports zone, south will be recreation wetland. Also, each sides interacted such as the little creek keep in the sports zone; a few sports fields built in the wetland area. Then, built the separated cycling and walking trail.

THE UNKNOWN
EXPLORING IN THE OUTDOOR MUSEUM Everybody faces the Unknown. This project includes everyone in exploring the unknown, in being excited by mysteries in the world around us. The project is located in Wita Wirra, in the South Parklands at the edge of the city of Adelaide. We chose this area because it is isolated with the lowest numbers of visitors in the whole Parklands. The knowledge park is designed for six types of users that include all age groups. Everyone can experience boredom and repetition in urban life. Instead of doing humdrum things every day, this park offers people the chance to feel and enjoy exploring fresh things. Everyone feels excited when they find, investigate and gain knowledge from mysteries. Therefore, we intended to evoke the curiosity of people to explore the unknown world – that is science. Adelaide is a city with rich scientific history, especially in the disciplines of botany, geology, physics, astronomy and biology. After considering the current situation of places for science education, we thought that there could be more active ways to interact with diverse users in the one space, instead of the formal science centres and museums. We have provided an outdoor space that produces a public landscape to suit the contemporary needs of the people who use it. Conceived to take advantage of the exiting site elements and cultural associations, we divided the park into five scientific discipline areas which provide different practical and interactive activities for each discipline and for six different user groups. There are free activities for everyone to find, explore and solve mysteries of the unknown.

BALAKLAVA TOWN HALL SITUATED IN THE CENTRE OF TOWN THE BALAKLAVA TOWN HALL IS AN IMPORTANT PART OF OUR LOCAL COMMUNITY.
The town of Balaklava is located in South Australia. It is my first time to take primary responsibility for a project - Balaklava Town Hall. The client wanted to update and beautify the entry of Town Hall, which included changing the sign, adding a new information board & some artwork, and building a little garden. The design of curved kerbs is convenient for large vehicles entering and exiting. The old sign is replaced by a new information board. I selected 3 main colours shrubs (red, yellow, white) for the little garden to match up with the building`s style. These plants can also bring different colours in each season. The new sign with entrance direction near the Town Hall. The new artworks are not only Balaklava`s cultural symbol, but also hide the electric box. All the designs are simple and inexpensive.

SMALL PROJECT (Poster)
These two small spaces connect with the street (shop front) sharing the busy-ness of the public realm with the chaos of a small bar and cafe. The open Halifax Street facade connects directly to the upper level courtyard drawing in north-facing sunlight and ventlation to the internal spaces. The courtyard and verge garden are clearly a modern interventions within the streetcape, yet fit in comfortably within their surroundings, including the community that passes by, inspiring confidence in contemporary, innovative design practice and providing positive direction for design quality within an urban context. Thecontemporary design approach is, never-the-less, timeless, enhancing and promoting the emerging character of Halifax Street and contributing towards the cultural identity of the wider neibourhood. At the same time, comfortable and iconic spaces that are wonderful to be in are created.
