“Mystery is a very special architectural tool… it is important to find a way to assess the difference between spaces that achieve mystery through reduced legibility or through other solutions.”

500 Nooks

There is a plethora of valuable small spaces hidden in Melbourne’s urban nooks. This project uses these cracks and gaps. These are not typical vacant spaces without buildings, rather they are spaces which exist as a byproduct of structures in the lane ways. Their discarded atmosphere of back lane services and graffiti make these sites distinctive; the aim of these designs is to preserve, insert into the existing, and remove nothing.

The five nooks make completely customised and yet entirely unprescribed spaces; the tenants (anyone from a book binder to a goldsmith or fishmonger) bring the next level of intrigue to the nook. Ultimately these designs could pop up and appear wherever there is a nook.

2021

After identifying 500 such nooks, I prototyped five with small buildings, notionally for a resident tenant with a public function - an activating business and a caretaker for the lane. The buildings squeeze into the nooks, tighten up the lanes and hang over roofs and parapets. These objects aim at melding forms of a foreign nature with more familiar or prosaic architecture; to be carefully contextual and utterly alien. Pushing the standard elements of architecture such as windows to become something other than a void or a component.

“This mysterious effect is caused when it is not possible to completely perceive something in the environment and, consequently, the observer becomes engaged in a “pleasant challenge to the imagination” (Hubbard & Kimball, 1929).” - Light and Mystery in Architecture - Paula Cardoso PDF pg 05.”

1.1 Caretakers Guideline

a) The local policy suggests that up to 30% of the total floor area is residential and under some circumstances up to 50%.

1.2 Design Guidelines

30 % Residence

b) An adequate level of private open space is provided

a) If the site has an existing cut out between buildings, that space is to be occupied without hindering the road. b) If there is no specific cut out in the existing, the design is to land on the ground and can prioritise pedestrian traffic. Therefore the road can be blocked.

c) The caretakers residence is located on the top level or at the back of the site
