THE WAVE
8. 2.
ARCHITECTURE DESIGN STUDIO 5 I ARC3001
“The Wave” is an renewal and revitalization project for the exisitng Building H at Monash University’s Caulfield Campus. In order to create a more energy efficient building, wavy vertical shading system were utilized for the building’s facade in order to filter out the harsh glare and sunlight radiation entering the building. The south side has less vertical shading in comparision with the north facing side (as the North Facade receives the most sunlight), therefore a skywell is implemented into the south side. This allows more sunlight to permeate the interior of Building H as well as allowing for more ventilation and air circulation to occur in the building. Natural vegetation such as the combination of Star Jasmine, Bouganvilles and Wisteria grow over the facade of the building. These plants provide a source of shade and a natural way of cooling the building down during summer, while allowing for sunlight to enter during the winter months due to its shedding. Furthermore, solar panels and water filtration tanks are also implemented on the rooftop garden in order to further improve the efficiency of the building.

VERTICAL PANELS VERTICAL PANELS ARE INTRODUCED ON THE EXTERIOR AS A SHADING SYSTEM WHERE VEGETATION CAN GROW ONTO.
ROTATION + REDUCTION THE SHADING PANELS ARE ROTATED TOWARDS EAST IN ORDER TO LET MORNING SUNLIGHT INTO INTERIOR SPACES. IN ADDITION, THE PANELS ARE CUT SHORTER TOWARDS THE LOWER LEVELS WHERE SUNLIGHT IS REDUCED.

POSITIONING + SURROUNDING CONTEXT
ON THE SOUTH SIDE, A LARGE VOID IS FORMED RUNNING ALL THE WAY TO THE GROUND FLOOR. THIS ACTION HELPS VENTILATE AND LIGHT SPACES. FURTHERMORE, ON THE WESTER SIDE WE INTRODUCE A ECO-GARDEN WITH SITTING AREAS SHADED BY A LARGE SOLAR PANEL AND WATER COLLECTION TANKS.
THE PANELS ARE NEWLY ARRANGED IN A WAVE LIKE PATTERN IN ORDER TO CREATE A RUNNING VISUAL EFFECT TOWARDS PASSING CARS FROM THE HIGHWAY. ALSO, 2 RECTANGULAR LARGE WINDOWS ARE PLACED TO FURTHER ALLOW MORE LIGHT INSIDE AND SPECIFIC PANEL SHADED AREAS OPEN UP TO AID IN THAT ACTION. FINALLY, THE GROUND FLOOR OPENS UP TOWARDS THE STREET WITH A LARGE INVITING STAIRCASE LEADING INSIDE. 1:20

PASSIVE COOLING Butterfly roofs overhang over the deck in the living room areas and central zen garden/courtyard in order to provide some shading and relief from the sun especially during summer. Vertical shading applied along the northern side of the building (in the living areas) also reduces solar heat gain. Clerestory windows are strategically placed to order to capture natural lighting and to provide cooling.
SOLAR ELECTRICITY HARVESTING Solar Panels are implemented on the Northern facing slanted roofs in order to capture as much solar energy as possible from the sun.

THERMAL MASS Concrete walls are implemented in the interior as they have strong thermal mass and help regulate tempurature. Floor heating in concrete floors help keep the building warm during winter.

Due to the high stress nature that comes with the job of being a paramedic, it is no wonder that Mental Health problems amongst paramedic workers are considerably higher than those of other professions. There is no doubt that the mental and physical wellbeing of paramedics is an important core issue that needs to be addressed by Ambulance Victoria, in order for paramedics to perform at their best capacity. “The Retreat‘’ is an Ambulance Victoria paramedic centre based in Clyde North, which sets to be a leading example of a branch of the future that promotes Mental Health and Wellbeing. Therefore through the use of passivhaus and biophilic design. “The Retreat ‘’ aims to be a safe haven for paramedics to retreat, rest, and revitalize from the stresses of their job. WATER HARVESTING
ACOUSTICS
Butterfly Roofs are pitched inwards to channel water from two directions, to be collected by water tanks. The collected rainwater will be used for irrigation for the community garden and natural vegetation on the landscape.
Bedrooms are faced away from the street. Building walls are made from CLT (Cross Laminated timber which provide acoustic insulation which provide privacy

THE MUSEUM OF FUTURE TRANSPORT
6.
ARCHITECTURE DESIGN STUDIO 5 I ARC3001
The Museum of Future Transport is a transportation museum which showcases futuristic transportation vehicles as well as displaying up-and-coming proposals for future transport. The dynamic innovative form which is angular and eye-catching, contrasts sharply from the exisiting heritage building (Hawthorn Tram Musuem), thus creating a unique juxtaposition between the historial and the contemporary, thus enticing visitors to come inside to view the Musuem. The Musuem strives to be a place to provide inspiration to visitors and its form reflects the innovation of the futuristic objects displayed and its future foreward philosophy. The musuem is split up mainly by two categories with the top two main floors displaying air transportation and the ground floor displaying ground transportation objects. The musuem aims to create a sensuous, space age effect on the visitors. This is achieved by the way in which the musuem consists mainly of overhanging large platforms with large open spaces and overlap between floors, which also along with the changes in height (due to the Musuem’s angualr triangular form) - allows for objects being displayed to be viewed from different heights and angles. This gives off a lightweight and airy feeling which coincedes with the space age effect that the Musuem achieves.

THE UNIVERSITY OF MELBOURNE I SEMESTER 2 2021 I TUTOR - HANS VAN RIJNBERK Due to the rise of the Digital Age, Ecommerce has largely overtaken the traditional model of physical shopping, thus leading to the closure and decline of many brick and mortar stores across Chapel Street. In order to reinvigorate the current retail landscape, a new retail typology will need to be developed in order to draw people back to the physical realm of shopping. “Play Factory” aims to discover the new typology of the “Concept Store” in which the store is no longer simply a place of storage and selling, but a space of discovery and play. Products are displayed in showrooms which are categorized by colour and mood. Working with technology, rather than against it - The phone and social media becomes another medium to navigate the shopping experience. All objects displayed inside are available for sale and can be purchased online by simply scanning the QR code with same day pick up from the Click + Collect Area. Designed with the intent of “Instagrammability” and user experience in mind, “Play Factory” provides beautiful backdrops for photos which could later be shared on Social Media. The Play Factory becomes a hidden gem that is to be discovered through geotagging. Its “Instagrammability Factor” becomes a very effective marketing tool in driving foot traffic, promoting brands, and thus generating hype and excitement for the Chapel Street Precinct.

The Cheetham Wetlands is unique ecological site in which both the manmade nature of the original salt works and the natural tidal wetlands coexist. The Cheetham Wetlands Research Centre seeks to bridge these differences by creating an Architectural Intervention that reflects this juxtaposition. The intervention is clearly defined into TWO different zones, one which is PERMANENT and the other TEMPORARY. The two zones differ vastly in terms of their formal qualities, materiality and the permanence of their zones. The Permanent area is deliberately built from heavier materials such as steel and concrete, in contrast with the Temporary zone. Therefore, as rising sea levels threaten to overtake the entire Cheetham Wetlands in 100 years, the Permanent area will be left to be reclaimed by the sea while the Temporary zone will act as a raft and float. The Permanent area of the Architectural Intervention will act as a memento to what the Cheetham Wetlands once was.
