THE BEANS POWER STREET LOOP COMPETITION In collaboration with BRYAN FAN, Rong Fan & Scott Walker.

The Beans is a competition entry to Power Street Loop ideas competition 2015, hosted by CityLink Melbourne.

Claiming 2nd prize of the competition.

The design emerges as a commentary on Melbourne’s loathed and loved roadside sculptures. Situated on a neglected fringe of Southbank Arts Precinct, The Beans tempt critics in their vehicles to consider broader functions of artwork. These sculpture is carbon positive, producing energy that might be used for night illumination or to power installations in the neighbouring civic spaces by photosynthesising CO2 in the immediate environment.

This technology has been scaled up in building facades in Europe, though is unexplored in Australia. Algae sculpture would recall a forgotten palette of Melbourne swamplands, now obscured by concrete painted with a thick, frayed brush. The Beans burst back, dramatically thrusting the ecological agenda into the forethought of commuters.

Winner of the Most Artistic Prize for the Power Street Loop competition which recognises the

“MOST CREATIVE ENTRY”

= WHY ALGAE? The benefits of algae as a renewable fuel source are significant. Algal biomes predate most plants and animals. Algae is a natural bio solar cell, using photosynthesis to absorb solar energy from the sun as well as carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, expelling oxygen. Algae has benefits over other plants and trees as they grow and mature much faster and are 6-10 times more effective per gram at converting sunlight and CO2 into oxygen. Once the system is in place, the algae farm doesn’t require much maintenance and has biproducts which can be used for food, fuel and fertiliser.

C ATA LY S T F L I RT I N G W I TH S PA C E MASTERS THESIS SEMESTER 1, 2016

Catalyst explores the architecture of innovation. The building which is part mining town, part research facility takes the form of an innovation hub (an emerging architectural topology) and is a symbol of the coming age of humanity, where unimpeded access to rare earth resources and the alien conditions of the moon allows researchers to push the boundaries of science, technology, biology and exploration. By concentrating innovation the building aims to accelerate history and truly change the world once again.

The building is centered around 5 key ideals which studies suggest the physical environment can promote innovation and creativity. Through careful manipulation of circulation, the building promotes brief and passive encounters between different residents to encourage creative clashes and the exchange of knowledge and ideas. A complex 3 dimensional street wraps around the building giving a human scale to the massive structure and allowing pedestrians greater freedom vertically by taking advantage of the moons low gravity environment.

Emerging from the lunar landscape, Catalyst is both a physical and metaphorical beacon for the future of humanity.

The demand for rare earth elements has drastically increased as technology has progressed. In 2009, world production of rare earth elements totaled 126,230 metric tons, with China producing 95% of the world’s supply.

Connection to nature

Interaction with others

Visualisation

Access to resources

The elements rapid rise from lab curiosities to helping supply the hearts of modern electronics has put strain on existing supply chains and experts worry that any supply disruptions could slow the pace of innovation.

REE and other valuable resources such as gold, silver and platinum are in abundance on the moon located in concentrated quantities, around impact craters.

Most importantly a special isotope of helium is embedded in the lunar regolith and could be the key to powering nuclear fusion reactors leading to clean near limitless supply of energy.

The estimated net worth of just a fraction of these resources is estimated to be well into the quadrillions of dollars. But it is simply the access and abundance that may indeed prove to be most valuable.

FRANKSTON E L E VAT E D R A I L MASTERPLAN R A I L U P! MASTERS STUDIO SEMESTER 2, 2015 As part of the state government’s commitment to removing fifty of Victoria’s level crossings in the next 8 years, this studio explored the implications and potentials of elevated rail in the suburbs of Melbourne on the Upfield and Frankston corridors.

Split into groups of 10-12, students observed the benefits of elevated rail applied to each of the suburbs and contrasted these with traditional trenched solutions. Each student was also allocated a stretch of rail line to analyse and design, tackling multiple different scales, from the urban impact of the new infrastructure, to the architectural prospect of elevated station, right down to the detail of the ground plane, landscaping, aesthetic and function Chelsea station, while not adjacent to any mandated crossings is of key importance when considering a RailUp approach for the Frankston line. The suburb contains 3 level crossings within only 1km of one another and is flanked on either side by mandated crossings at Edithvale and Bonbeach. Being beside the bay, public predispositions of rail under are likely to be a very costly if implemented. Elevating the rail is the superior solution providing many benefits for the residents of Chelsea, such as unimpeded access to either side of the line, amazing views and the unlocking new public urban space.

P E A K H U R S T M U LT I FUNCTION CENTRE H OW V I RTU A L B E C OM E S R E A L MASTERS STUDIO SEMESTER 2, 2014 Located in the western suburbs of Sydney, Peakhurst High school is a co-ed, years 7-9 secondary college. Inside the campus grounds are the remnants of a ‘Binishell’ dome, a product of the 1960’s pneumatic architecture craze. The structure uses a unique construction system, however has since fell into disrepair, largely due to cracks, leaks and poor environmental quality.

The brief - a design of a new multipurpose centre to replace the old, unutilised Binishell. The new architectural proposal is unique in its use of two construction systems.

The project aims to explore the potentials of a traditional concrete shell system (seen in structures such as the Binishell system) when combined with 21st century notions of parametric technology, which manifests itself in this proposal as a steel gridshell. The result is an innovative hybrid approach which aims to overcome the shortcomings of a single system by having both material’s properties augment and enhance one another. The new multipurpose centre is not just a unique feat of architecture and engineering but also a landmark for the school, rising from the earth to create a new point of entry as well as facilitating a place for teaching, learning, leisure and congregation.

VA L L E Y O N GRANGE ST U D I O E N TA S I S MASTERS STUDIO SEMESTER 1, 2014 The site a former railway route, is now an abandoned and forgotten piece of land. To the detriment of the community who aspire it to be something more. The site is scarred with remenants of the past, most notebly a large ditch where the old rail lines have been torn out.

Today it is little more than a thoroughfare, particularly for the children who use it to walk to and from the nearby school. The architectural response was to provide a form of social housing that could benefit from and facilitate this circulation channel.

The design not only maintains this circulation route but enhances it, providing a formal pathway that strengthens connections between the neighbouring streets which currently terminate to a barren and seemingly forgotten place. Taking the form of mountains, the apartment buildings blend seamlessly with the path and seemingly grow from the surrounding landscape. The spaces in between the forms create a valley, a prominent street full of life which converges at certain key points such as the park and corner shops. This is to encourage social interaction between the apartment residents but also the community at large.

e x o -tower A PPL I E D C O N S TR U C TI O N MASTERS subject SEMESTER 1, 2016 In collaboration with Rong Fan & Scott Walker.

The Master of Architecture construction technology subject involved the design and documentation of a tower on a hypothetical site in Melbournes CBD. After a comprehensive massing and feasibility study in order to obtain a minimum floorplate GFA efficiency, the design was itteratively refined each week developing in detail the structural system, facade, environmental performance and construction details.

Inspired by skyscrapers such as the One World Trade Centre and Shanghai Tower, our skyscraper took the form of a rectangular tube which tapered to a point in order to minimise vortex wind loads on the corners as the tower ascended.

The main design feature - an unmistakable exo-skeletal truss.

The truss, which is detatched from the buildings envelope helps brace the structure, allows for deeper floor plates and contributes a unique aesthetic for Melbourne’s skyline.

The building aims to minimise heat load and energy consumption as much as possible. Through the use of a unitised panel with integrated louvers the building allows for passive ventilation of the offices minimising dependance on HVAC systems. The large sliced section at the top of the tower added vanity height while also acting as a north facing raked plane in which to install Photovoltaic panels which generate up to 10% of the buildings total annual energy consumption and a carbon offset of 530 tonnes of C02 gas per year.

VOXEL E X L A B - DI G I TA L F U R N I T U R E FA B R I C ATI O N MASTERS ELECTIVE SEMESTER 1, 2015 VOXEL is an exploration into the potentials of flexible 3D printed joinery in furniture design. Typically FDM 3D printers create parts using hard plastics, however VOXEL uses a flexible filament called Ninjaflex, a thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) infused with rubber polymers.

Limited by the bed size of the in house 3D printers, VOXEL is made from 192 modular units and takes advantage of the mass customisation afforded by the 3D printing process to alter the pattern, density, size and compressive strength of each module. These 3D printed joints rest on a timber frame and act as pressure plates for a series of standardised timber modules.

The result is an undulating aggregate of cuboid forms that have varying levels of compressive strength. Created through over 200 hours of printing time, each face reacts differently to loading which allows the cube to accomodate a number of functions. Through a simple rotation, VOXEL can be used as a rigid side table, a suishy chair or a flat stool.

The project was published on several notable 3D print websites, such as 3ders.org and 3dprint.com.

A U X I L L A RY ENVELOPE A A VI SI T I N G S C H O O L In collaboration with KAMMY LEUNG & LUKE KIM. Situated in the intimate setting of Degraves Lane the project explores how architecture in the form of an auxiliary envelope can alter and enhance peoples perceptions of personal space. The project was conducted in groups of three as part of the AA visiting school in Melbourne in February 2016.

The project had two main areas of focus. Firstly tensegrity systems (such as those developed by Buckminster Fuller and Kenneth Snelson) were explored in detail to highlight their potentials as envelope and structure. Simultaneously, investigations into the social behaviours and patterns of inhabitants within the city were conducted, in order to understand the experiential qualities of popular public places within Melbourne.

Combining these two fields of study allowed us to formulate our own brief for an intervention within the city that would provoke and question existing urban conditions. Taking the form of an occupiable canopy over Degraves Lane the final design aims to provide occupants with the illusion of their own personal space, while maintaining the density present in the laneway.

As part of the project our team constructed a 1:1 prototype of a small part of the design as part of the AA exhibition.

WY N D H A M G AT E WAY D E SI G N S TU DI O A I R UNDERGRADUATE STUDIO SEMESTER 1, 2013 In collaboration with Scott Walker & Laura Bartholomeusz.

The City of Wyndham Gateway project explores the impact of computation on architectural design. The brief called for a freeway installation with a defining place making quality to help further establish the development of a community identity for the City of Wyndham.

The theme of growth was a key driver in the design process and an apropriate analogy to the rapidly growing western suburbs of Wyndham. The design takes advantage of emergent systems to achieve a design that grows organically on the site. Using a flocking simulation the site was populated with a series of paths which were used as the basis for the placement of Wearie-Phaelen packing blocks embedded with the names of significant members of the community.

Designed to be built progressively over time with modular building blocks, the design will gradually grow along with Wyndham.

148-152 CARDIGAN ST C ON ST R U C TI O N DE S I G N UNDERGRADUATE SUBJECT SEMESTER 1, 2013 148-152 Cardigan St was a documentation project in which students were given vague sketches to interporate and develop into fully realised construction drawings.

The sketches (which consisted of a plan elevation and perspective) contained extremely limited information, lacking dimensions and containing elements which had to be changed due to a lack of compliance with Australian building codes and standards.

A full set of construction drawings and specifications were produced, describing the office development and propriety systems specified. The final documentation included a site plan, roof plan, ground and first floor plans, 4x elevations, 2x sections and several details.

S T U D L E Y PA R K B O AT H O U S E D E SI G N S TU DI O WATE R UNDERGRADUATE STUDIO SEMESTER 2, 2012 The second year architecture design studio presented students with the task of redesigning an old boathouse and cafe in the style of a great master. In this case, the works of Australian architect Glenn Murcutt were analysed and studied for this project.

Consisting of a restaraunt, cafe, kiosk and boat storage space the building emulates Murcutt’s Australian vernacular aesthetic and incorporates sustainable design techniques that are suitable to site and climate a key charactaristic of this great master’s work The new design aims to have minimal impact on the site, instead floating above the natural surroundings while still enhancing engagement between the visitors of the boathouse and the Yarra River.
