Project Brief

Australia is well known for its transplant industry globally, most citizens are aware of the opportunity for organ donation, yet many did not register to be a cadaver donor. It then comes to the question : Could architecture assist in the idea of rethinking the body of human and its ownership? The question of a loop cycle of life and death is to be considered. In the current debate of organ donation registration system in Australia, with further relation to the global issue of organ trafficking, a speculative architecture of advocacy is thus to be investigated. This thesis therefore, explores how a new cemetery that is inclusive of mortuary, advocacy and columbarium for organ donors could be integrated into existing cemetery models. Driven by the concept: act of giving as a celebrated aspect, a new morality of death is to be discovered. This is done in order to test the celebrated implementation of an architecture of a new tier of "sacred gifts", a new morality that grows from the existing necropolis.







Site Context

The Melbourne General Cemetery was selected as a testing ground for such a proposal, given the significance of the site within Melbourne and it is already at capacity. The definition of new morality here, is not grounded to any religions as compared to the existing layer below. Categorised based on the "absence in body", each deceased givers are celebrated and seen beyond just a memorial. This provokes a new experience of discovery, a discovery of a multilineage of the context, organ donation. As such, the many fragmented identities of the existing necropolis ( tombstones, gateways and path routes) are extrapolated and heightened to engage in a journey that aligns with the new tier of activity, similar yet different to the layer on the ground. It is therefore, a new system that incorporates these assets found on ground to key experiences of exemption, frames and procession that further align with spaces that provide the act of giving.








Narrative

This project is directed into an architecture that programs spatial experiences, circulating routes and form compositions derived from the fragmented identities as mentioned before.

BILLBOARD: An administration office, an advocacy gateway for organ transplant

Experimentation in form, structure and materiality that enhance the response of design to the element of giving is done, while not forgetting the amplification of identities on site for a cohesive experience to the new tier.

OFFERING : A columbarium of celebrated givers

CLEANSING : A mortuary exclusively for organ donors,

Intentionally composed of distinct architectural compositions to give and take in balancing both moments of personal grieving and public awareness.

Project Brief

The initial concern of this project is to re-establish a better identity and livability of Victoria Crescent. This is an exploration to the extent on what works best for a sustainable Abbotsford in terms of community engagement in a hybrid working environment. Back to the 1800s, there is a continual evolution of garment making from leather, to fabric manufacturing and textile printing in Abbotsford. It is as if there is an invisible loop of garment industry projected. Therefore, as a continuation, the site would be intensified as a garment precinct. By introducing a transparent system from production to consumerism, the project targets a flux of designers and makers from amateur to professionals.This precinct would be heightened as a garment cycle.

Back in the 1800s, Abbotsford is first established as an industrial area, yet it is now in the process of transformation. With its location at the Melbourne CBD edge, it is designated as one of the major activity centres in the Melbourne 2030 plan. Residential housing is now the major fragment that forms the area, however, it is interesting to realize that there are still shadows of the past casting on each street. Industrial elements are dominantly portrayed in every corner of this suburb, with mostly warehouses fencing Yarra river. Vehicles are the main moving objects circulating the streets while pedestrians are hardly seen walking around the path. A subtle boundary is formed that separates the land and the river, as if there are isolated fragments that are to be discovered to reconnect Abbotsford.

To further sustain the identity of this area, an exchange of knowledge and experience among the new primary target residents (the makers) is embraced. A fashion institute is thus the anchor to the exchange within the garment precinct, with retails from garment material sourcing to the end consumed product of fashion that is focused on the ground level.

Modify thresholds for storefronts along the street

The main thresholds to the building targets first the consumers of garment along the street edge and second, the institutional zone. Existing buildings are carved to create a laneway in between that serves mainly for cafes and a recreational corridor. As seen here, three different experiences are provided to heighten the mixed use of building with landscape. First, the sunken lane that directs people to underground retails and to the communal area along the river; that has another alternative as a sunken fashion laneway when required. Second, the facade that is retained to serve as an ambiguous portal between the old and new and the elevated corridor that provides an outlook towards Victoria Crescent setback for main entrance area onceIncrease people enter the institutional zone of the precinct.

As fabrics play an important starting material for the generation of this garment cycle, the intervention between what a storefront could work with the specified residents is considered. Housings around this area targets more on hybrid interchange of knowledge; hence, pockets of working area is inserted along the apartments with the aid of the corridor as a shopping catalogue of fabrics to the residents. To provide a strong collaborative environment of creative workspace, voyeurism is also embraced. The cantilevered working spaces with movable walls that are exposed to the street serves as a living billboard to the neighborhood of the garment precinct.

Project Brief

A play of identity is explored in this fictional storefront for Andy Warhol and the superstars. Verticality is embraced in this design, creating a type of personal journey and voyeurism to be participated. Diverse capability of multiple functions in a defined space is created, exploring the idea of interactive participation of the users to an architecture. Forming dual experiences, a contrast within spaces is thus defined. Spaces are arranged with the focus on flexibility and personal interpretations of spatial quality. It is a storefront that aims to intensify the identity of the participant of the architecture.

THE STOREFRONT A PLAY OF IDENTITY

“Andy did not want to be the centre of things. he wanted to watch and see other people’s reactions and how people lived their life.” The curiousity in discovering oneself and another contributes to the approach of the design intention of this storefront. What is it like to be observed; and what is it like to be observing? This idea of determining the recognition of identity between the superstars and the public is examined. Verticality is embraced in this design, creating a type of personal journey and voyeurism to be participated. Diverse capability of multiple functions in a deened space is created, exploring the idea of interactive participation of the users to an architecture. Forming dual experiences, a contrast within spaces is thus deened. Spaces are arranged with the focus on exibility and personal interpretations of spatial quality. After all, it is a storefront that aims to intensify the identity of the participant of the architecture.

The storefront here, acts as a display suite of what is produced on top - the silver factory. Visitors from the public is celebrated as the major participants of the space; while Andy and the superstars would be hidden, having a rather enclosed access through the core elevator to their working space - the factory. Contrasting dual experiences are formed for the superstars and the public. Small space with quick linear access for superstars. Large space with a long voyage for the public.

Scenario One (Plan and Section Detailing)

Visitors become an artwork themselves when they reach the point where they are viewed as a focus of human flow from the outside. The choice is up to themselves whether they want to circulate the vertical tower, experiencing a journey of voyeurism combined with narrow lane way, view towards the bottom tiny atrium and then to the highest where they could have a visual peek towards the activities of superstars in the factory.




Scenario Two (Plan and Section Detailing)

With reference to Andy Warhol's appreciation of branding of ordinary items, artworks are printed on translucent films, displayed to be seen as market products of such branding from the outside. The density of opacity would be altered when visitors take the films, and thus provides a movement of tonal change on the outer facade.

The grand stairs that he takes, is echoed with rattling sound from the steps and casting streamlines of skylight. Appreciating the pixels of Warholism through the carved shelves on his left, accompanied with recognisable noises of Warhol superstars below on his right; the grand walk leads him to the second gallery.




The elevator is utilized as a multi-functional space for the superstars. Deals and interviews are done within this tiny area. Interviews are done in Warhol screen-test method through installed cameras in the elevators. No interviewer would be engaging directly with the superstar; heightening the identity of superstars.

Senses in architecture is something that sparks the design approach of this project on a motel with yoga and visual art practices in the year 2045. By the definition of balance, it could be further explained as the balance in a shift of structural core, the balance of looking at the past and present innovation; the balance of experiencing and creating the art of experience.

FACADE PANELS While wanting to have glass panels to inclose exterior faces and frame views, perforated panels are introduced as an additional shading. Pattern is derived from traits of bricks.

BAMBOO STRUCTURE As a sustainable material, its strength to weight ratio is larger than bricks and timber. Thus, is used as secondary structures to the cantilevered blocks, mainly at the lower part of the building.

TIMBER CLADDING Timber is used to match the color scheme of the site. It is also a subtle reference to jenga, thus acts as facades to the core structure of the building.

Project Brief

Proposed as an installation for the CERES Environmental Park along Merri Creek, In.(flatable) Mod.(ular) responds to the need of proper light settings and an event venue in the Park. As its name, In.Mod uses spherical inflated modular PVC elements as voussoirs for a freeform spatial catenary system. This modular sphere packing systemallowseasy-to-fabricate,formwork-freeand dry construction while providing a material system with the features for an acoustic optimization.

This project was further developed as a case study for a paper for the CAADRIA 2016 Conference with my partner and studio leader. Full Paper available for view at http://papers.cumincad.org/data/ works/att/caadria2016_405.pdf

Deriving geometric rules based on patterns found in nature, the lantern is designed digitally using Rhinoceros 5.0 and fabricated from a 2D cutting template which is output through card cutter. The multiple intricate paper panels are then hand folded and assembled; fusing digital technology with craft sensibility.







The Y-curve segment in this pattern of nature is explored and developed. It forms a concept behind the design of the final lantern with consideration of aesthetic purpose and also mass customization. It opts to create a design that serves to the external atmosphere through light and shadow, hence, experimentation of digital design and model representation is done throughout the semester.

Influenced by the materiality and soulfulness of living things, the implications of benefiting geometrical patterns is exploited in this project. The structure of the lantern is hence formed from the Y-curve segment, with the approach of movements in nature, to create a geometric rule of formal design.

The location of the tower is tilted to be along the central axis of the overall plane of Carlton Garden, which offers users more visual access towards the landscape area.

Through the spliced body of the building in response to surrounding height and form of buildings, a harmonious integration into the environment is provoked, minimising the sense of oppression for urban dwellers.

FACADE

The use of a traditional layout of the horizontality and verticality of plane is used in the design concept of the building.

CORE

Located at the edge of the city, a prime location that overlook Carlton Garden, the design of the tower is intended to draw a contrast of old and new, inwards and outwards with respect to the feasibility and functionality of an office building. The building is designed to create a statement at its location, without losing the respect of building formation to the surrounding. The use of a traditional layout of grids is implemented. The design of our proposed building could be seen as a resemblance of the surrounding buildings, depicting as a multiple functional combination as a whole. This is eventually one of the development trend of high-rise buildings nowadays for time and space Intent savingDesign opportunity. In response to this, the building is formed through the splicing of plates, contributing to the cuts of orthogonal as seen in the exploded Located at the edge the city,into green facades, a design opportunity to promote natural ventilation while reducing urban heat effect. Relating to the diagram above. These wereof translated a prime location that overlook concept of inwards and outwards, the design serves to contribute a co-relationship of the users inside and out. By tilting the tower to more exposure of Carlton Carlton the design of Garden, visualGarden, access towards the landscape of Carlton area is offered to the users inside the building. the tower is intended to draw a of old and new, inwards Withcontrast simple approach in massing and plan cuts, the building makes use of orthogonal grid spaces to consider rentable spaces. Consistent floor plates were anddespite outwards with respect to the extension of green facades. Through the green facades that focus mainly on the north and west, a new working formed the additional cantilevered feasibility and functionality environment is created for the usersofofan these offices. Productivity is believed to be highly improved when greenery is implemented in a working environment. A office building. in The building is as a buffer and social zone to these working people in the floors below. The proposal here thus focuses on the sky pool is introduced the crown, acting designed to createwithin a statement efficiency of occupations the designed spaces. It is also worth mentioning that the sky pool here is installed as a representation of a damper pool, providits location, without losingBy benefiting the height of the building and its prime location, an additional feasible consideration was applied to the ing aatconsideration of stability in design. respect building formation to as to promote the building as a statement to the surrounding, media meshes are installed, creating the opportunity for double façadeofskin of the building. Again, the surrounding. office workers inside to communicate with the outsiders through advertisements or messages broadcasted through the façade. Lifts are the main transportation for the building. To save space and promote efficiency, the floors are categorized into zones of: low-rise, mid-rise –high rise –sky rise - crown, thus zoning the lifts into these zones, allowing the core to shrink smaller in size as it ascends upwards. This is done by having lifts that serve lower zones to be located at the outer rim of the core. By ensuring the rentable spaces to spread out to the perimeter of the building footprint, the core is thus located at the center of the building, providing more flexibility in the layout of functional spaces that surrounds it.

THE DESIGN INTENT OF THE ROOF PARAPET IS TO HAVE A WALKABLE PLATFORM ALONG THE PARAMETER BETWEEN THE HIGH DOUBLE FACADE AND THE BMU TRACK FOR MAINTENANCE PURPOSE. STAINLESS STEEL MEDIA MESH IS USED AS AN OVERHANGING FACADE THAT COVERS THE CROWN, SERVING AS A SIMPLE ICON TO THE ALREADY COMPLEX TOWER OF THE SKYSCRAPPER. THE POOL LEVEL AT THE CROWN IS VISIBLE DUE TO THE CUT OF OVERHANGING MESH AROUND THE FACADE. THE ROOFTOP IS ACCESSIBLE BY SERVICE LIFT AND STAIRS, ADDING TO THE CONVENIENCE OF BUILDING MAINTENANCE. COX GOMYL U-TYPE BMU MADE FROM STANDARDISED COMPONENTS AND ARE DESIGNED TO BE ECONOMICAL, THIS BMU HAS EXTRA ADVANTAGE OF HAVING A HIGHER MAST.

Project Brief

With reference to Joseph Kosuth's "One and Three Chair", the idea is presented in three different media/devices to suggest the concept of museums are nothing without musing lines. Highly based on Rosalind Krauss' "Sculpture in the expanded field", architecture in this project is dealt with the notion of axiomatic structure. A fictional world is created to contain the chosen museums with gallery designed specifically for artists based on real interviews.

Definition

Musing line is defined here as a line of thought configured by the participation of people within architectural space. Between the built and the people, lies an invisible matrix of musing lines that strengthen the significance and defines the space of museums in the world. Similar to Bernard Tschumi's statement: architecture is nothing without events; museums are nothing without musing lines. Nothing is sealed, these musing lines resonates outside the institution. By uncovering this layer of lines, it is made visible, tangible to the consciousness. People realize that their thinking creates the museum sphere. It is an experimentation on how these musing lines from each museums, penetrates outwards along the linear corridor. The idea here is to utilise Lebbeus Woods' 2005 project (System Wien) to explore Jurgen Habermas' concept of Public Sphere and Roland Barthes' 1967 essay, The Death of the Author. The musing lines are read as a new understanding of the circulation through the corridor. These lines are formed with identities that respond to both the galleries and museums in the following pages. First, the orthogonal character for the Perez Art Museum that represents frontality and labyrinth; whilst the zig-zag character represents layers and misrepresentation from the gallery in Royal Ontario Museum.

Experimentation


Gallery for The Drone Opera by Matthew Sleeth in Perez Art Museum

By compartmentalizing the performance system into different cubes within the cube, the entire performance could still be experienced as a whole outside the gallery space. Yet, it would be unknown to the visitors of what is creating the show, or even, whether the show is a live performance or a looping track.

Gallery for AVAF Sao Paulo Installation in Royal Ontario Museum

Throwing one's perception off by making the wall overscaled, visitors now are only given a fragment of the work. This impossibility to view the work in its entirety hence is the play to how the definition or identity of the artwork could be altered by the visitors. The newest breaks the spatial vanishing point, creating a bridging from the new to the old; shifts the focal point of the threshold to a distinct change from the old to the new.
