HI! Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;M NATHAN & I DESIGN! I

â&#x20AC;&#x2122;m Nathan - a 24 year old Building Designer from Geelong. My passion for Architecture extends from my long established love for all design and is enhanced by itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s diverse problem solving scenarios and its real world implications. I can appreciate most styles of architecture however I am inclined toward modern styles with bold but well articulated statements and

intentions. Professionally I am results driven and competitive. Everyday I need to be better than I was yesterday. I am looking for a design firm that will utilize the skills I have developed in a challenging capacity, all the while providing an environment in which I can further develop my abilities and knowledge.

01 THE POIKA POD

y first design brief was to create my own ‘personal space’ sited at Bells Beach. This space could be designed to be anything we wanted.

The beautiful context made it clear to me that the design should have minimal impact on the site. This drove the insect -like stilt structure that supports the ‘pod’.

With the site being relatively obscured, I felt having a self serviced unit would be great home way from home - a space in which one could disassociate from every day life and just relax with the ambiance of the coast.

The aesthetics were inspired by McBride Charles Ryan’s Klein Bottle House and the pod was design to embrace passive ESD principles (including ventilation and lighting).

DESIGNS

In 2010 Geelong was the host to the UCI Road World Championships, a tournament second only to the Tour de France. In conjunction with the City of Greater Geelong and the UCI Committee - The Gordon found the opportunity to deliver the Advanced Building Design students a real world project. The brief was to create a ceremony stage and time

trials starting ramp that embraced both it’s purpose and Geelong’s waterfront. The premise of this project is that the best design would be selected and actually implemented. While these designs were one of the five groups shortlisted, the UCI committee decided to go with standard portable set ups.

While learning Autodesk 3ds Max I intend on revisiting old projects and using it’s capabilities to improve design presentations. This is the first using 3DS Max and MentalRay.

03 13TH BEACH HOME

My first residential design project was a family home situated at the 13th Beach Golf Course Estate. It was conducted in groups of two and was to focus on the requirements of ResCode as well as covenant design guidelines. The design guidelines required the use of modern design elements as well as an articulated facade. While it was important to me that we acknowledged the design guidelines, I also felt the need

to tastefully separate this family home from the existing paradigm of this gated community, and my teammate strongly agreed. This was the driving force behind features such as the butterfly roofs and the side access for the garage freeing up the front facade for livable space and design features. Care was also taken to ensure the access of natural light and ventilation for most habitable spaces of the building.

We aimed for an open plan layout with as few hallways as possible. As a result a free and IORZLQJ IHHO ZDV DFKLHYHG 2QH PDLQ DGYDQWDJH RI WKLV LV WKH HDVH LQ ZKLFK ZH FDQ LOOXPLnate most areas with sunlight, saving energy by minimizing the need for artificial lighting. a

06 THE HORIZON CENTRE In 2013 I continued my Diploma, with a design brief was to create a community learning/ library learning facility in Torquay. The single storey building was to integrate with the immediate surroundings as possible. My objective was to create a design that embraced Torquayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s relatively young endeavour to incorporate contemporary architecture.

I also pursued various passive ESD principals (particularly lighting, ventilation and thermal mass). Finally I wanted to take advantage of the context, by maintaining views of the beautiful scenery with a green roof. I aimed to implement a dynamic but bold form, which extends from the purpose of the space itself.

HORIZON CENTRE

DESIGN GOALS

Each facade of the building has been designed to represent various facets that a learning centre should provide or promote.

My primary goal was to design a community centre for learning and development. It needed to be a design that captivates the local community and invites them to utilize the facility.

THE KEY IS INTEGRITY

Corner of Zeally Bay Road & The Esplanade, Torquay

WHY HORIZON I have chosen to name this project The Horizon Centre. This reflects the ability to clearly view the horizon from the implemented green roof. More importantly The Horizon Centre and it’s surrounds are a source of information and experience. These two valuable assets are what empowers individuals to take advantage of opportunities that may lay over the horizon.

All of these various traits are tied together by the use of concrete as a cladding material. Concrete in construction is a strong material which provides integrity, an attribute that bonds these four traits together.

Many of the venues have not been updated in over 10 years which provides a stagnant appearance in a sector that should always have a contemporary feel. SOUTH - SIMPLICITY

nature reserve provides calming sensation.

In response to these factors I have chosen to take a more contemporary approach to the design with the intention of setting a benchmark of design for future developments in the area.

On the contrary, there are a few examples of modern libraries in the Geelong Region which take a contemporary approach.

While this ideology is not new, there is currently no venue in Torquay that provides such an important space.

SITE AND CONTEXT

EAST - PURPOSE

1:200

Perhaps most importantly, ‘The Horizon Centre’ is quite an ambiguous name, and was intended to be that way through design. A byproduct of this ambiguity will be imagination among people as they generate their own theories and conclusions about the significance of the name.

FUNCTIONAL GOALS The goal that was most important to me, was the creation of a space that enables members of the community to come together as groups or individuals and take part in the opportunity to learn, discover and imagine in a sociable environment.

AESTHETIC DESIGN Architectural style of libraries in the Geelong Region are, in a general sense, outdated.

Torquay’s local architecture (particularly on The Esplanade) is in a comparable predicament. With many of the commercial buildings being of a past era.

HORIZON CENTRE

To link The Horizon Centre to the business district, thought provoking signage is to be implemented along the residential fencing.

ESD STATEMENT GREEN ROOF The green roof is arguably the iconic feature of The Horizon Centre. It’s purpose is to provide use to a space that would ordinarily be neglected. As a result of this implementation it provides an additional function to the building and a place for social interaction. It doesn’t serve a environmental purpose as water will be drained onto another roof then stored in tanks.

The last major priority was to ensure This was primarily approached from a The Horizon Centre implemented a economical and environmental sense, high caliber of sustainable design. however sociological aspects were also taken into consideration. NATURAL VENTILATION AND LIGHTING Awning windows are to be implemented on both the north and south sides of the building. This will promote cross ventilation. The internal courtyard is provided with awning windows at a higher point of a raked ceiling which helps act as a solar chimney promoting natural convection.

To maximize light natural light penetration the courtyard has been made from curtain glass. These passive techniques reduce the demand on fossil fuel powered electricity and help put the building into a more self sufficient category, further reducing operational costs.

SOLAR DESIGN Steps are to be made to ensure the sun is being used as much as possible. Large amounts of curtain glass have been situated on the north facade to maximize solar heat during winter. Photo-voltaic cells have also been added to power the building.

CLADDING Over 95% of the cladding

Rain and Grey Water Collection Tanks are to be installed underground to store collected rainwater and grey water. This water will be used for operating toilets and maintaining the grounds. This reduces demand on local water supply and building operation costs.
