ULTIMO, SYDNEY The urban landscape has left many in-between spaces. I would like my design to create as little impact on the ground plane as possible and allow underground area to be utilised as a farmers market. The connection between people and food is one of the most important aspects of life. Creating a space for people to interact with each other, learn, and share through this is the main focus of my project. Through my design I will show the melting pot of the Sydney food scene as it currently exists, dynamic, urban and connecting, as well as highlighting the importance of locally sourced products.

PORT MORESBY, PAPUA NEW GUINEA Women and girls experience conflicts and natural disasters differently than men and boys because their roles in society have been constructed differently. This creates increased risk of sexual and gender-based violence for reasons such as disruption of communities and services, poor living conditions, and loss of assets and livelihoods. The lack of food, shelter and water compounds these impacts to make women and girls more vulnerable to sexual exploitation and abuse. Designing a space for teenagers that connects them to their heritage through the practice of art, specifically painting, which aids the community greatly. Using the already established National Sports Institute as a location that already draws individuals. The addition of a small art institute will create a positive community space and help draw the youth from poor living conditions and attempt to change the community framework surrounding gender based violence.

EXPERIMENTAL ART FOUNDATION, WAVERTON PENINSULAR, SYDNEY
The concept of art and exploration allows individuals to engage with the Waverton Peninsular. The site is separated into three spaces, the coal loader platform being the main connection point of the upper and lower site. Simple additions and subtractions have been made which bring rigidity to the complexities of nature through form and materiality. The upper site is the first contact that individuals will have with the experimental art foundation. Hidden from the outside and restricting the view of the coal loader platform. Leading down the stairs the interior making space is revealed as well as a cafe that has been excavated from the cliff. The interior making space allows artists to create while the public views this process from a cave like auditorium setting. Finally, after walking through the native bushland, the coal loader platform is theatrically revealed to the individual, allowing a continuation to the lower site. The bushland surrounding the lower site allows for light and sensory art to be created and viewed. Engagement with art is created through three small/medium modules placed on a walk for the public to discover. The use of slight additive and subtractive spaces allows for engagement within both the art process and the landscape.

KENT STREET , MILLERS POINT,SYDNEY The concept of pavilion living separates the individual living spaces in the home. Inspired by architectural works such as the Moriyama House of Ryue Nishizawa, (2005), the pavilion terrace has separated private and public spaces with connections through courtyards and semi-private walkways. The urban square besides the terrace captures the same geometry, aiding the flow of experience from terrace to square. Connecting the two with the central pavilion with a cinema, the square begins to work with the terrace to entertain the community.
