01 THERAPEUTIC FACILITY Mental Health Facility Thesis Studio / 2020 Yarraville, Melbourne This project explores how architecture can assist in the treatment of young women with eating disorders. Exploring themes of trauma and harmful coping mechanisms, this architectural intervention uses flexible elements and sensory experiences to improve mind body connection. Flexible elements such as privacy curtains, operable doors and movable furnishing helps clients feel a sense of agency over their environment. As well as that, sensory experiences created by a lush, scented courtyard and tactile wall claddings helps to create a more soothing therapeutic environment.

02 PARAMETRIC ARCHITECTURE PAVILION Public Installation Second Year Studio / 2017 Merri Creek Trail, Melbourne
This project aims to create a sensory experience for the users. Designed using a process-based approach to parametric design, it was driven by the concept of death and fear. Two pieces of public architecture was produced for civic use using Grasshopper to create it’s form, a pavilion and a bridge across the river. Collaging, diagrams and an iterative process was used throughout the design. By incorporating light, shadow and interacting with the river on site, it creates an experience for users of the park to contemplate, reflect and connect with their emotions.

03 ENVIRONMENTALLY SUSTAINABLE UNIVERSITY BUILDING University Building Fourth Year Studio / 2019 The University of Melbourne, Melbourne
This design brief for this project was to design a new faculty building for the Office of Environmental Programs at the University of Melbourne. By using environmentally sustainable design principles, this project aimed to maximize energy efficiency, thermal comfort and increase biodiversity on site. The concept was based on having the building operate as a tree, being able to contribute positively to the surrounding environment and make use of solar energy and rainwater. Natural and innovative materials such as hempcrete walls and cross laminated timber was utilized for it’s natural materiality which creates a warm environment and their thermal and acoustic properties. As well as that, rainwater collection structures, green roofs and rain gardens were introduced to provide educational opportunities for the building’s occupants.

HEMPCRETE WALLS
- Composite of hemp bio-fibre - Non toxic - High thermal insulation - Carbon negative material - Recyclable
GLT POST AND BEAM
- Glue Laminated Timber laid in the same direction - High strength to weight ratio - Locally sourced timber has lower carbon footprint than steel or concrete
CLT UPPER FLOOR PANELS
- Glue laminated timber laid in opposite directions - Good thermal performance - Good acoustic performance - Fabrication produces less waste

04 SKYSCRAPER CONSTRUCTION DESIGN High Rise Office Building Fourth Year Subject/ 2019 The University of Melbourne, Melbourne
In this construction studio, we designed the structure, facade and detailing of a high rise office skyscraper. This required us to design the whole structure of the building from the core size and orientation to the structural system and grid all while adhering to specific requirements set for the plot ratios and gross floor areas. Construction detailing of the curtain wall and parapet were also undertaken. Group Members: Tan Huey Jean, Lim Yi Xuan and XiaTong Jin
