BROAD RESEARCH OF THE CURRENT EMPLOYMENT STATUS:

‘ Township has 0.37 jobs per resident worker’

‘ The employment provision rate rate in Sunbury is currently low when compared to metropolitan Melbourne’

‘ Because of Sunbury’s size and proximity to major employment areas in Hume and Melbourne Airport, even when it is fully built out, it is unlikely to provide a metropolitan employment market’.

‘In total, the Sunbury/Diggers Rest Growth Corridor Plan has the capacity to provide between 10000 and 15000 new jobs on its full development although more jobs will be supported if this can be achieved’.

‘Satellite town, due to its proximity to major employment areas in Hume and the Melbourne Airport’.

‘Many of the jobs in this region, either directly or indrectly, depend on the airport and its activities or benefit from being in the airport region.

Around 44 per cent of people who live in the local region also work there’.

‘According to data from the National skills Commission from June 2021, Hume Had the highest rate of unemployment (12.1 per cent) of any local government area in the north-west of Victoria’.

‘The job less figure is more than two times that of the state average, which is 4.1 per cent’.

‘Melbourne Airport and the business around it are a major source of jobs for Hume resident’.

‘Given these factors, Sunbury is unlikey to be a location that attracts a large share of the metropolitan employment market, even at its full development’.

‘Higher education and health facilities within the Township, which are key employment generators’.

DRAFT THESIS STATEMENT:

Because the limited local employment within Sunbury due to its proximity to Melbourne Airport and existing Sunbury town’s industrial and educational structure is incapable of coping with the rapid population growth that results in the loss of employment opportunities, it poses a serious employment situation crisis to the whole community of Sunbury.

Suppose we try to break the employment structure of the existing Sunbury Town Centre and provide more employment and entrepreneurship opportunities for the residents through the new Sunbury South Town Centre building.

Will it mitigate the severe employment crisis?

The census reports the usual resident population of Sunbury in 2021 was 38851, but the employment provision rate in Sunbury is currently relatively low when compared to metropolitan Melbourne. The township only has 0.37 jobs per resident worker. In the latest growth corridor plan, the urban planning expert forecasted the population of Sunbury will be approximately 84000 in 2036. However, the planned employment areas, which feature a mix of industrial, commercial and goods supply only have the capacity to provide between 10000 and 15000 jobs on its full development. This will not resolve the problem of lack of job opportunities as the population is booming.

Two key factors explain why the suburb’s employment rate/work opportunities are so low. Firstly, Sunbury town is only 17km away from the significant employment precinct, the Melbourne Airport. The relatively limited local employment within Sunbury due to its proximity to the airport. Sunbury can even be described as a ‘Satellite town’ which basically dependent on the airport for living, very similar to ‘towns of the mining boom’. Secondly, the existing Sunbury town centre’s industry structure is incapable of coping with the population’s rapid growth. The range of local jobs and services cannot sustain the development. If the planned development continues, the whole Sunbury suburb will face a serious employment crisis. How to resolve the issue?

Suppose we try to break the traditional employment structure and provide more employment and entrepreneurship opportunities for local residents through the new Town Center building. Will it promote the economic development of the whole town? By revitalizing local industries and creating more local jobs, the town of Sunbury will become more than a ‘satellite town’ in orbit of the Airport. The new Town Center will allow more locals to work in the town and use the airport as a transit point to serve the local industries. Therefore, local commodities, artworks and specialities would be sent to every city in Australia, or even the world, through the Melbourne Airport.

Complement the existing Sunbury Town Centre, not overtaking it.

Melbourne Airport Distribution Centres:

In Europe, there are some notable industrial buildings built in 20 century like Fagus Factory and AEG Turbine Factory. Many of them no longer serve as functional spaces for the industry. They have been moved into high-tech modern factories for more efficient production. However, as manufacturing becomes increasingly mechanized, companies have done away with costly aesthetics like windows in favor of cheap, quick structure that will protect machines from the natural elements.

In the early 20th century, industrial architecture strongly influenced the direction of overall architecture trends as they are the heart of city. But now industrial buildings seem to be independent and abandoned by contemporary architects, they don’t need any ornaments on the facade, they don’t need to think about the aesthetics and even they don’t need to integrate with local urban context.

Functionality is priority.

By looking at the existing distribution centers around Melbourne Airport, I realized the lack of aesthetics in the architectural form and the awkward structures.

I want to challenge the current situation and provide a cost-effective and aesthetically pleasing industrial architecture.

Old Industrial architecture redevelopment:

Battersea Power Station / WilkinsonEyre

Area : unknown

- Fully decommissioned in 1983.

- The redevelopment involves the construction of 3444 new residential homes, 517 afforable homes, 2.5 million square feet of office and retail space, library, a medical centre and childcare facilities.

- Creating a new town center.

- This project demonstrates the great renovation potential of old industrial buildings and the architectural value of the great monumental industrial arhitecture. On the contrary, the corrugated metal sheet covered industrial architecture are so fragile and temporary.

Urban Farm: Agricultural architecture

Floating Farm Dairy / Goldsmith Company

Area : 2000 m²

- Compact and logically stacked

- Technical installations, storage, processing and production in a singular entity.

- Two gallery around the cow Garden. (without disturbing the business process.

- Finding meaning in a rapid changing environment through the introduction of Urban farming.

- Challenging the border berween harbour, city and country.

The future of Urban agricultural architecture: Urban farms can be as simple as tradional small outdoor community garden, or as complex as indoor vertical farms in which farmers think about grwoing space in three-dimensional terms with the latest technologies. It will not be able to produce the sufficient amount of food for the whole city, but it will be more educational. It can also strengthen the relationship between urban and rural.

Workshop

- Two open access community workshops in Europe.

- Specialized in wood and metal processes with affordable access to tools, spaces and communities.

- What really touched me is that some artists, carpenters, general local residents are working and learning there. The artists don’t need to make their artworks in the garage and struggling to sell them. They have the opportunity to access the professional tools, engage with people who have the same interests and teach people how to create artwork.

- Also the workshop provide them a professional loading dock to transport their artworks.

- The characters in the photos have their own website. By clicking the name, it will redirect you to their portfolio to check their artworks and get in touch with them.

- It really made the workshop special. It brings life into the architecture.

- Sunbury needs this kind of space!

- Emphasized or strengthened the idea why the affordable shared workspace would improve the empolyment rate and support local talent.

FEEDBACK AND REFELCTION:

- Workout the type of system: what kind of small industrial spaces? Numbers? How many workshops? How many food/products can be produced daily? How many loading docks? What scale of distribution center is more suitable?

- Scale it up.

- Study the Collingwood Yards, where creativity and community meet. And Dairy Road in Canberra.

- Type of spaces (Programs) draw the detailed plans and apply the spaces into the project and see the detailed arrangement (Patterns) - Will the workspace be the central open space?

START WITH SMALL SCALE:

KIT-OF-PARTS

COFFEE ROASTERY MUSHROOM FARM BAR & BREWERY CLAY POTTERY

Kit of parts theory:

- The thoery helped me to define a parts library describing every major assembly in large complex.

- The assemblies are conceived in a systematic way, based on certain rules such as increment, size and shape.

- By controling the connection/ space between the assemblies, the basic layout of the masterplan is generated.

- Object-oriented building technique.

This is a good method for me to digest the enormous site. Started from small scale really brought me a sense of spatial arrangement and the control of in-between spaces.

FIRST ITERATION OF MASTER PLAN

Feedback and reflection on the plan:

- Need to improve the circulation. Many specialty retails are not accessible.

- Study more precedents to make a better plan.

- The relationship between the site and architecture is too weak.

- Think about the natural sunlight? and the orientation of the building.

- The landscape? The in-between space in the semi-open courtyard need to be designed. How do the Sunday Open Market occupy the space.

- Out of focus. What programs are more important? Refer back to the thesis statement and concept. Small industrial spaces and shared workshops are key assemblies. They should dominate the site layout and be the key generators of the masterplan.

- Hint: Cut out the programs in scale and play around. It is the most straightforward method to improve the plan.

- The sections and 3d models can also help me to improve the plan.

Precedents:

- Integrate architectural form and digital promotion into a coherent whole.

- large area of outdoor terraces for locals to enjoy street life. This project renovated the traditional idea of street front shopping experience and made it three dimensional. The three storey outdoor shops integrated with landscape emphasized the idea of urban green.

- Successfully seperated the office space and commercial spaces.

- Digital Canvas- potential utilisation.

-Inverts the original inward-facing 1960s masterplan and offers the area a civic focus.

- Shoppers are lured to the outside by designing the central pavilion.

- Formed a new public heart for Ringwood.

- Acting as a test case to demonstrate the ways in which commercial and civic spaces can co-exist happily and form real public facilities for the local community.

- Rising out the center of the sqaure, the shard provided access into and out of the mall.

- Providing cinematic sensation of movement for pedestrians travelling through the escalators.

UniFun Tianfu Chengdu / CLOU Architects

Eastland Town Centre / acme Completed in 2017.

- Transforming the in-between space to a public civic plaza. The characteristics of the project merge to fulfill its role as the premier community gathering destination. The new Sunbury South Town center need a community gathering space as well.

- Innovative retail solution and embracing the nature and sustainability.

- The open-air garden walk provides different shopping experience.

- Co-existence of people and nature with organic setting.

- The plateaus covered by vegetation.

- A place of balance with zones of calm amid the rush of the city.

- Reducing the urban heat island effect and storing stormwater, but also absorbing carbon dioxide and dust.

- Damping noise

- Supporting Biodiversity

- Enhance overall well-being of city dwellers.

Key points to follow:

- Concept: Enhance and preserve the natural setting of Sunbury

- Delivery and distribution route

- The in-between space, community gathering space and ambiguous space. The flexibility and adaptablity.

- Views ( Relationships between the building and site context)

- Transportation adn road (Public) for general vehicles and pedestrians.

- Internal circuation/movement.

- Flexible spaces.

Can be easily adopted by placing some termporary infrastructures. Also the in-between space was initially designed for the Sunday Open market.

Underground Carpark Access & The Shards

- Car-free Zone

- The underground carpark access from the edge of the site, and little pavilion/ shard carefully located to provide the most efficient circulation for pedestrians.

Goods transportation in-out bound

Bypass:

- The diagram explains how the goods get delivered into and out of the town center. And the connection between the distribution center and all the programs.

Movement of Pedestrians

In and Out

-From outside in, pedestrians need to walk across the green barriers.

-Internal circulation, the shops located between main facilities that allows pedestrians to quickly browse the shops while traveling.

- Need to design the journey later.

Reflection and feedback:

- Lack of life

- The layout of the masterplan is too functional and pragmatic.

- Need to consider more connections between the town center and the visitors/users.

- Different users need different spaces. What about the retailers? what kind of space they need beside their own shops? Think about different age groups.

- The underground carpark is massive. Re-consider the size and the amount of car spaces required.

- Add play more infrastructures like playgrounds, sculpture, built-in outdoor furnitures?

- Lack of strong concept or the driver behind the layout.

- How can people learn something about the importance of employment? Idea of care.

- Process of products, why? and what happens?

- Need to have more human interaction/activities.

Precedents: Study the precedents to improve the design.

Week 07: Lack of Life? What is the solution? Interactive Public Space

Brickwork Burwood Site Visit: Inspired me and I believe I will resolve the problem of lack of life next week.

THE PULSE PARK, CEBRA

- New destinations to visit, work, live and learn.

- Stepped levels arranged on all sides in the form of stairs, balconies and amphitheatres that encourage exploration, providing several look out points and sitting spaces.

- Great sustainability performance- working towards being net zero carbon by 2025.

- The living building ( A building that comes to life from the ground up) (A living Legacy)

• Building materials (non-toxic materials as part of standard practice) to help educate the industry.

• Connecting to country and community through Art. (Sculptures, design, painting)

• Playing beyond the rules. ( The shared learning throughout the retail industry created the new shopping experience)

• Environmental stories ( 1. Urban Agriculture 2. Solar Power 3. Recycled Water)

• Biophilic Design

• Understanding the indigenous story

INTERACTIVE PUBLIC SPACE

Values:

Aesthetic Value: Well-designed Public infrastructure can enhance the visual attractiveness of the urban enironment.

Economic Value: The individual public infrastructure provides the suburb competitive advantages and local distinctiveness. It can further attract visitors, boost cultural tourism, create local employment and increase the use of land and spaces.

Social Value: The public infrastructures can create a stronger sense of place and identity while connecting communities and places. It can also create a public gathering space in order to bring life to the new Sunbury Town Center,

Two Intereactions:

1. Local artist and the public space, they design the artwork for engagement(street furnitures, Sculptures, etc..)

2. The people and the public space. The interactivity is the key.

THE ADAPTIVE PUBLIC SPACE: The Sunday Market is one of the top priority program on my list. Although it cannot directly improve the employment rate. This can really cultivate the local talent, connect residents and local business to regional markets and provide more economic opportunities. Not everyone need a full-time job.

BACK TO EMPLOYMENT

Why unemployment rate matters? How the unemployment rate effect us?

Unemployed individuals are unable to earn money to meet financial obligations. Failure to pay mortgage or rent may cause increases of homelessness.

Unemployment increases susceptibility to health issues. Unemployed people have higher chances to take medication or drugs.

There is also the possibility of reverse causality from poor health to unemployment.

The combination of unemployment, lack of financial resources and social responsibility may push them to take the jobs that do not fit their skills or do not fit their talent.

The other cost of unemployment rate might be the higher divorce rate. The rate of divorce is two times greater for couples when one partner is unemployed. This will cause enormous social problems and make the social unstable.

CHARACTERISTICS OF INDUSTRIAL ARCHITECTURE

1. Wide-open spaces: Open Floor Plan

2. Minimalist aesthetic: prioritizing functionality over ornamental flourishes.

3. Exposed materials and utilities: Exposed brick walls, concrete floors, and steel beams are commonly found inside industrial residential spaces. Exposed ductwork, wiring, and plumbing as well.

4. Natural light:Abundant amount of natural light via large, metal-grid windows, floor-to-ceiling windows or skylight.

BACK TO INDUSTRIAL

Why industrial/manufacturing matters? How do the manufacturing bring to us?

Despite the world-class skills and incredible natural assets, the light industrial in Australia has stagnated

- To build up more resilient supply chain for local and reduce dependence on developing countries. - Develop Australia-based industrial is critial to a modern Australian economy and a vital part of Australia’s response to the COVID 19 crisis. It is also a part of the Government’s JobMaker plan.

The industry sector is the backbone of a country and industrial development is a precondition for eradication of unemployment and poverty.

Bring light industry to Sunbury- Aimed to bring down the regional disparties. Otherwise, it will become a backward region after several years.

Set up industries will also provide many employments to the rising population as I mentioned earlier.

THINKING ON POST-INDUSTRIAL ARCHITECTURE

Maybe it is wrong, but I want to use the term ‘ Post-industrial’ to start thinking about three points below:

1. Connectivity and Flexibility

2. Materiality: Robust

3. Environmental Resilience

Despite the Sunbury South Town Center is a completely new construction, could I use architectural elements from the previous industrial era of Australia? This will help people to reminder the period and evoke the celebration of industries?

Industrial Remnant: Abandoned or Renovated or Demolished

Abandoned Industrial architecture: What can we learn from it?

The great resilience of the nature? The abandoned building can be filled with greenery in just a few decades, is it better to directly design a building filled with green plants?

Public Space: Design Strategies

Feedback:

1. Surrounded by a park, not a carpark. Diagram the comparison.

2. New opportunities that it created? Two fronts to the shops (one from the Courtyard and one from the park)

3. People mostly arrive by walking or by car?

4. Need to design the carpark underneath and justify it somehow.

5. Design the park. Emphasize the relationship between the Park and Architecture. The park cannot be a leftover space. This will help to create an architecture. Is it a serious of Pavilion, with the parking coming through? Or is it one large block?

6. Don’t lose the connection to industry either.

Reflection:

Indeed, in the process of design, the basic rule that architecture has multiple fronts was neglected. I agree with Alan that the outside of the architecture is as important as the inside, although I designed a central courtyard as the main public space.

I will review my project according to the feedback and further improve the design.

Can we bring some innovative feature to the industrial architecture with these three materials?

what do I want to design?

- More than an industrial architecture

- Embody the spirit of Victoria’s industrial past

- Provide a welcoming and flexible space for local reisidents.

- Provide a community space with lots of employment/self-employment opportunities for Sunbury, both now and future.

- A building/ town centre which is reflective of traditional local environment.
