SITE HISTORY
Pre-Colonial Settlement Swamp area used by Wurundjeri people
1855 University of Melbourne is established Combined maps of 1896 and 1919
Combined maps of 1896 and 1938 1961 Swamp is transformed into lake
1939 Lake is filled in to make space for more buildings. A lawn replaces the lake Combined maps of 1896 and 1985
Combined maps of 1896, 1919, 1938 and 1983
A series of Concrete Lawn maps superimposed upon one another and a timeline I created for
1968 Concrete lawn formed as part of Union Court
the SITE task to showcase the history of the site and indicate the changes of the area. 1
SPATIAL COMPOSITION
PLAN 1:400
SITE PLAN 1:400
Inspired by the simple form of triangles and lines, I created a simple frame structure. The simplicity of the entire structure creates clean elements within the space SECTION 1:400 2
LANDFORMING
SITE PLAN 1:400
PLAN 1:400
This
landform
was
created

with
elements of extrusion, subtraction and sloping in mind. Different materials were incorporated into the model to showcase the different elements.

ASSEMBLAGE Assigned with the composition of grafting, I combined elements of spatial composition and landforming to create a new structure caused by the stress of the two.

NARRATIVE COLLAGE
MEET At last, a realm where borders no longer exist, holographic images sometimes replace our physical bodies. Oxygen hubs and hover board recharge stations are scattered all over the sparkling galaxy. Along with visitors from the past and future, aliens and humans now co-exist harmoniously. Meeting spaces are no longer constrained to one planet, settlers can easily catch up with their friends on Mars or go on a casual drive through the Milky way. In fact, you can travel anywhere! Oh how much the world has changed but human encounters remain uninterrupted.

METAL

Different metal finishes such as diamond plated metal, satin brushed metal, metal plates, perforated metal and rough metal to convey experience and atmosphere 7
FINAL PROJECT MEET & METAL
Inspired by the function of meet, I decided to create a space which allows for the exchange of ideas amongst students when they meet. Although enclosed within elements of metal, the use of glass gives a feeling of an open space. Interaction with the open
space
and
natural
environment within the area helps to soften the harsh and heavy nature of metal.
