Design Thesis
This thesis project aims to develop a time based membership housing system: WE LIVE in hoping to response to the changing living needs and lifestyle of Millennials. This project also explores how Melbourne’s housing market can transform into a “share economy” model. A modular in-fill adaptable architecture system were used in response to the above research areas.

This project aims to provide an alternative solution in combating ongoing socioeconomic inequality within Brazil. By implementing an income and functional mix housing system: 33, this would help create a community oriented neighbourhood , affordable, and sustainable housing community.
CURRENT HOUSING ISSUES = INTENSE POLARISATION IN BRAZIL
33 CUSTOMISE HOUSING SYSTEM
BARE SHELL HOUSING OPTIONS
Brazilian intense polarisation has remain as one of the most significant socioeconomic problem of the country. With 10% of the population controlling more than 50% of the National income, this has caused extreme inequality in terms of living standard, social connection and income living among the different income classes.

Due to the extensive slope of the site, micro pilling system are introduce to allow for minimum excavation and use of retaining wall. This system would not only uses less materials but also allows for a quicker construction time. Pilling system would also provide stronger support then footings with less material, in our case, we would like to provide a stronger support for future self building customisation. A standard 6m x 12m structure frame are introduce for easy construction. The modules is a multiple of the 33 grid, which wall and other building element can be easily fit in. This structure would allows for a open plan where the interior can be easily divided up, both flexible and adaptable.

9 urban design parameters were developed with the aim of incorporating the unique environmental identity of Galapagos (i.e. Endemism, Customization) into its urban context. By running parametric simulations with these parameters, two urban interventions were created. These interventions serve as an example on how the island can transform over time to create a more dynamic and unique urban Galapagos.

Developed by a team of student from the Melbourne School of Design, this 6.0 x 2.0m sectional collage was created for the UABB 2016 exhibition in response to the theme: â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Re-living the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. Using our former studio projects as the material for the collage, we aim to deliver a message on how collection of old ideas can inspire newer inventions in the areas of technology, trade, culture, transportation for future Shenzhen urban living.
/ 05 Urban Corridor Melbourne underground travellator 2015
Studio Disturbance
By implementing a three speed, non-stop travellator transport system allows current constraints such as, long waiting time, limited capacity, entry and exit points and single use of space to be removes from the trainstation based transport system. This project aims to transform the newly proposed Melbourne Metro Rail project from a traditional transport system which purely â&#x20AC;&#x153;transportsâ&#x20AC;? into an interactive underground corridor, which serves both as a public transport system and public urban spaces

Melbourne Metro Rail 40 km/hr (city loop)
The newly proposed Melbourne Metro Rail project aims to provide an alternative in reducing heavy traffic present in the current city loop and to support the growing Melbourne population. However, the proposed new metro line within the project would not solve the fundamental problems present in the current city loop (i.e. overcrowding, long waiting time etc.). Instead, a new system is needed in order for train transport to adapt to the changing demographics of modern Melbourne.

CONCEPT DESIGN Convert to travellator Implementing a travellator concept would increase passenger capacity. Number of people that can travel during the same time is no longer limited by the size of a train and station boundaries. No more waiting time for passengers as the travellator is constantly moving. Passengers can get on whenever and wherever they want. This allows full control of their time and movement. The travellator would also provide greater transport coverage for users, as entry and exit points are no longer limited, they can enter the system anywhere along the underground tunnel.

/ 06 Human The memiores of Marta
2015
Studio Atmosfer
The unique atmospheric experience of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Humanâ&#x20AC;? is created by studying the use of both traditional and modern materials, different lightings, colour and sounds. This bathhouse not only allows users to escape form the pressures of modern city life, at the same time giving a new interpretation to this slowly fading traditional culture of visiting bathhouse.

Studio Landscape
Reset pods offer pockets of thermal refuge in the Moorabbin Arts Precinct where extreme weather during summer and winter often prevents the outside space from being used to its full potential as a gathering place. Small landscape interventions are introduced to create a desirable micro climate which enables workers, residents and visitors to utilize the external landscape of the precinct in a comfortable manner.
