Footscray Exchange
02
With Dr Kelum Palipane and Thomas Proctor
Arts and cultural events of ethnically diversed Footscray narrate vivid tales, portray the communities value , unite people, trigger healthy debates and offer an uplifting experience to its visitors. However, to meet the need of the rising population, municipalities plan of gentrification of the housing stock will begin to affect the availability and affordability of creative and festive spaces within the suburb resulting in waning of local art forms and cultural identity in the future.
Women’s Circus
This thesis aims to develop a transport hub that includes the ‘creative industries’ of Footscray into its development process. By creating a platform that people use not just as a transit exchange but also a gateway for the creative industry, the project challenges the utilitarian spaces of transport hub to uniquely intersect with local art forms and the ways in which commuters would perceive and experience those art forms.

Wakeup Francis With Dr. Hamid Khalili and Concept Artist Nick Stath
Robert Wiene’s The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920) begins with Francis (Friedrich Fehér) recounting a horrific event. In his story, he discusses Dr. Caligari (Werner Krauss), a man that exhibits a somnambulist, Cesare (Conrad Veidt), whom the doctor stores in a coffin-like cabinet and controls hypnotically. Francis recalls the death of his close friend, Alan (Hans Heinrich von Twardowski) and believes Cesare murdered him under Dr. Caligari’s control.
Plot Borrowing elements from German expressionist and Italian Futurist paintings the project expands the architectural world and the plot of the German masterpiece, The cabinet of Dr. Caligari, directed by Robert Wiene in 1920. The extended story attempts to portray the hallucinated world by the character Franiz and helps discover the dark world of Caligari, the somnambulist.
The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari makes use of expressionist architecture and expresses interior reality through exterior means with its use of extreme distortion in its production design. The film, as a result, presents us with a dark and twisted world with distorted shapes and angles. This expressive style presents us with a grotesque worldview – buildings are slanted, doors and windows are unusually shaped and walls and floors consist of schizophrenic patterns and designs. The hallways, intersections, and buildings in the film are all artificial and unnatural. In addition to the design of the sets, the excessive stylization also extends to the intertitles of the film. The texture, underscoring of certain words and phrases, and lettering emphasize a schizophrenic state of mind

inspired by the paintings of Lyonel Feininger’s The town square is represented as a collection of unfamiliar forms and emerges as an unfolding action. The nature of the streets such as the blindspost along the laneways, the irrational openings of the houses, the steetlamps all combines to give the viewers an image of an Urban life.

Scene 2, Inside the Town Franciz: There were signs of life around, flickering lamps, smoking chimneys, chirping crickets but I could see none. It was as if they all knew he was in the town and refrained to get under his sight. He suddenly stormed out of a shelter and certainly did not look delighted. Just as he took a fleeting blurred glimpse behind, I took cover, I could almost hear my heart hammering in my ears as I saw his monstrous shadow grow on to the mighty door ahead.
Scene 5, Sanctum Franciz: Inside there were constant moans and creeks, a musty and putrid odor filled the still air, the walls and ceiling were taken by molds and webs in clusters, Crusty rags hung from the ceiling and lay on the ground, the faint movements showed there was life underneath them, and i told myself “soon they would become his sleepwalkers ...”

Metropolis of Tomorrow With Fiona McLean and Brendon McNiven
Year
2070 By 2070, approximately two-thirds of the world’s population is expected to be living in cities. Skyscrapers have proved to be a efficient approach to accommodate a high density of population within a small footprint controlling the horizontal expansion of the cities. Continuing to keep building them the same way to address the rising population may end up using a lot more ground cover at a higher density which defeats one of the original purposes them.
Case
Concept
To apply the current idea of present skyscraper that is static and pre-programmed may no longer seem to be an efficient way of living and building a skyscraper. Hence, the project attempts to rethink urban skyscrapers as a deployable, carry-go, similar to the gadgets that are part of our daily life today.
The design is inspired by the nesting behavio constant shifting of places for survival reaso nest per year on an average. When it’s time their nest which is soon occupied by anothe living be applied and adapted by humans in tomorrow function like a tree to build our ne

Design The traditional structural glazing is replaced by the docks into which the inflatable pods fit in from inside. These docks can be of various sizes depending on the user’s requirement. With such a system in place, the building offers its users a complete new lifestyle. Users are flexible to design and fabricate their pods to suit their needs; carry them along when they travel and simply plug into another tower.

Wind Architecture With Dr Stanislav Roudavski, Shen, Viki, Johnson, and Jeff
From within a hard shell swells the soft bubble, a billowing urban room hatched in the back of a delivery van. This genie in a lamp makes for instant theater, and shows how wind in a bag can make instant architecture. But this is no ordinary pop-up circus tent. Rather than being consumed as entertainment, like a circus act or the dead matter of architecture, the project consumes its viewers, and they in turn transform it. Touch it, see and be seen through it, drink and debate inside it. Understanding the peoples relation to the urban space as well as a quite big amount of invisible borders within the city that shape the built and the social space through inflatable structures.
environments to the stratosphere. The broad blend of skills acquired when making such structures can be useful in many other forms of design, now and into the future. Inflatable structures can be interesting for architects because they tame a powerful energy source with minimal means to achieve amazing, and sustainable, performance. What if buildings could be supported by the available wind? What can they architects about the invisible landscapes of air?
