Location: Union Lawn, Unversity of Melbourne Objective The studio engages with urban and landscape design principle “Woonerf” as applied to The University of Melbourne Parkville campus and, in particular, the Union Lawn, one of the campus’ “major open space”. Woonerf/ Shared space – a street in where pedestrian and cyclists have legal priority over vehicles enable to emphasize the pedestrian priority/ identity of that open space as well as to slow down the “traffic pace”. Concept ‘UNIVER-CITY 2040’ The design focuses on the campus’ network of open spaces to establish the contextual framework to speculate future interventions in the Union Lawn that explore the interrelations between Gehl’s notion of ‘life’, ‘space’ and ‘buildings’ and the influences of urban density and intensity and the public/private interface and thus creatively respond to complex socio-spatial, cultural issues associated with urbanization and urban changes (densification/ intensification). “First life, then spaces, then buildings – the other way around never works” (by Jan Gehl).

Pedestrian Flow
To detect the sense of orientation in the city, various structures oriented and located in particular positions along streets can assist pedestrians with a sense of walking direction and distance to reach different places that people aim to. These structures are particularly located in places showing attractive characteristics that catch people’s awareness of where they are.

Lively Commercial Laneway (Internal Spaces) Open spaces define the character of Bourke Street transect as well as the City of Melbourne. From small scale like streets and laneways to large scale like plaza, parks and gardens play a significant role in the city to stimulate and further enhance the social activities that help make Melbourne the world’s most liveable. Each urban open space shows the unique and creative characteristics of Melbourne.
