CASE FOR INNOVATION ARCHITECTURE AS DISCOURSE, COMPUTING IN ARCHITECTURE & PARAMETRIC MODELLING PRODUCED BY AN AUTODESK EDUCATIONAL PRODUCT PRODUCED BY AN AUTODESK EDUCATIONAL PRODUCT
PROJECT: NOMADIC FORM, ARBORESCENSE ‘POST-ROMANTIC URBANISM’ CONTRIBUTORS: CARLOS DAVID GONZALES URIBE A holistic exploration of parametric modelling techniques and fabrication process, exploring the concepts of bio-mimicry and a new vision of the urban landscape.
PROJECT: FEDERATION SQUARE CONTRIBUTORS: LAB ARCHITECTURE STUDIO, BATESSMART, PAUL CARTER
PROJECT: ABU DHABI PERFORMING ARTS CENTRE ARCHITECT: ZAHA HADID The structure is described as a “biological analogy” whose primary componentsare transformed into absract archtectural elements. This reference to nature and the abstraction of elements is relevant to the Gateway Project.
A major architectural presence in Melbourne, Federation square explores the old and the new, the idea of monument and ornamentation, and acts as a gateway to Melbourne City.
PROJECT: AAMI STADIUM ARCHITECT: COX ARCHITECTS The design enhances architectural discourse through it’s use of computing techniques to enhance both the aesthetic and structural design; and additionally through it’s use of iconography as structure
PROJECT: CAPITAL GATE ARCHITECT: RMJM ARCHITECTS The design responds to it’s environment through it’s aesthetics, Structure and sustainable design.
PROJECT: CHILDREN’S MUSEUM ARCHITECT: NED KHAN
The building features a large-scale public art feature titled “Articulated Cloud’, which makes the wind currents surrounding the building visible in patterns created by the tessellated components in the ever-changing façade
PROJECT: RESEARCH PAVILION CONTRIBUTORS: ICD/ITKE STUTTGART UNIVERSITY Material orientated computational design, which is informed by physical behaviour and material characteristics.
PROJECT: DZ BANK ARCHITECT: FRANK GEHRY We hope to take these ideas of connection and innovation, and experiment with the tessellation of geometries, contouring and organic surfaces to also form connections between the old and new, bridging the gap and showing the translation and transformation from our site and the surrounding destinations.
CASE STUDY: PROJECT: TOKYO AIRSPACE ARCHITECT: FAULDERS STUDIO Facade is representative of previous vegetation on the site, the layers create a density and creates a ‘dynamic threshold seperating public and private space. The aspect of layering and specificity to site are relevant to our Wyndham Gateway Project.
REVERSE ENGINEERINGCASE STUDIES REVERSE ENGINEERING: These two screens were created using the grasshopper voronoi pattern. Rather than using random points, two or three attractor points were incorporated into the definition.
INPUT / ASSOCIATION / OUTPUT
In this experimentation there is a much larger range of cut out sizes and rather than filleted or rounded, the sharp corners were kept.

CASE STUDY: PROJECT: RESTAURANT AOBA-TEI (AIP) CONTRIBUTORS: HITOSHI ABE + ATELIER HITOSHI ABE A spatial partition, exploring light and shade, a contextual integration of landscape and nature into an urban form.
DEVELOPMENT BOOLEAN
EXPERIMENTATION TRIANGULATION
Exploring old and new, local imagery. Simplified and effective parametric design, using CNC millling in fabrication process. Personal exploration encountered the issue of scale and material properties.
REVERSE ENGINEERING: Creating a lofted surface from two curves, using surface normals and image smapling to create a perforated geometry illustrating the tree. Change in scale and sizing to create a achievable panel that illustrates similar ideals, but does not convey the ideal as a whole.
FABRICATION:
REVERSE ENGINEERINGCASE STUDIES CASE STUDY: PROJECT: DIOR GINZA ARCHITECT: Flagship store for Christian Dior in Tokyo, Drawing inspiration from Dior’s iconic cannage pattern used on bags and wallets, they increased the scale of the pattern to cover the facade. There are two layers to the facade, these layers are then separated by an illuminated space which serves to further highlight the differences in scale of the patterns and to further disguise the internal structure and organisation of the building. Because in the Gateway project our primary audience will be people passing by the structure in vehicles I was interested in exploring how scale can affect the meaning of a deisgn and how it is viewed.
REVERSE ENGINEERING: To recreate this design in Rhino and Grasshopper I used two image samplers set to the one rectangular surface. Both with the same Dior cannage pattern that I recreated, I then scaled the image of one “image mapper” association down by 30% and this created the desired result.
