I CORONERS COURT

Skyline Analysis

In this project, the courtroom and lab play a role as servants to move among different departments. For the court, it docks at different levels when some legal support or scientific support is required, or stay on the ground to give a public hearing. For the lab, it takes body and mini lab from morgue to legal departments participating inquiries or to the lab for the further autopsy, or just moving between legal and lab for information exchange. In addition, for keeping the cut-edging technology, the lab would be replaced more frequently than the other parts of the building. So the lab was designed into small units within the structure to meet the needs of changeability and flexibility. It could live and grow by discarding its outdated parts and regenerating newer, more viable elements. For the streetscape, the mobile court creates a dynamic environment that may change the perception of the stability of the cityscape.

I FABPOD Meeting Place (Group work, suporvised by Nick williams)

Fabpod is designed to be a working meeting space at RMIT, engaging new tools and techniques around parametric design, acoustic simulation and digital fabrication. It addressed the changllenge of designing an innovative pod, a space designed to strict acoustic performance standards. It was fabricated using state of the art technologies including fiveaxis robotic milling as well as engaging strong experience in building crafts.

I ALESSI Team: Ping Liu, Sophie Beckerleg

ALESSI MUTANTS is a famous italian furniture brand. In this project, it explored and reinvented the relationship between architecture and industrial object, focusing on a series of smallscale furniture-object studies. These serve as conceptual origin for the unfolding of shapes and surfaces creating a small environment that by hybridization is removed from any initial typology or utilitarian determination of the works. Though these projects begined as architectural investigation of Alessi typology, they would be informed by the contemporary discourse on generative processes and manufacture. The projects could redefine the notion of physical space by warping, pulling and pushing the boundaries of the small objects until they arrive at and constitute new and unfamiliar interior landscapes.
