The core design of Sydney AMP centre has inspired our arrangement of lifts. The shifing of usable lifts at certain levels has maximised the efficiency. The toilets are arranged between unusable lifts.

The site response of 101 Collins .St. Tower is interesting. It has a formal-looking entrance for the offices and a modern one for the hotel. The visual threshold between different podium functions is also a part of our design.

Hearst tower in New York has a gap between tower and podium, allowing sunlight and vision through. We also adopted this design language as the carvings on the building.

Overall Information: Located between Lonsdale Street and Little Lonsdale Street adjacent to the Merriman Ln, the FROST tower generates the frozen conflict between historical and modern time. With a total height of 250m, the FROST tower is composed of 4 levels of podium, 28 levels of office and 14 levels of the hotel accompanied by 4 levels of mechanical floor distributed through the tower, one sky lobby and 4 levels of the crown. Design Concept: 1. Since the site is adjucent to Melbourne ONE Apartments by Central Equity which has a historical heritage facade on the ground floor, the building aims to continue this historical language on the ground floor but gradually transformed it into a modern language. Thus, a concrete facade treatment starts at the connection levels of the podium and tower, then radially disaturated into the glazing facade unit. 2. Due to the wind direction is mainly from the north. The two north corners are chamfered at the top but not chamfered at the bottom to solve the strong north wind coming from north higher levels. Since there are tower clusters on the north bottom levels, the chamfer on the bottom would be unnecessary. The two south corners are chamfered at the bottom to decrease the wind pressure due to the gap between the surrounding building, and no chamfer at the top. 3. Inspired by the Hearst Tower in New York, the podium’s floor plates are not directly set to the boundary but detached to the podium facade to allow more solar access into the podium. To allow natural ventilation through the podium and introduce enough solar access from the northeastern side, a roof terrace on level1 applied on the northeast corner of the building. Design Concept Implementation: 1. Centre Core: A centre core applied with the module of 1500mm applied in the centre of the site to provide the main vertical load-bearing, resisting the horizontal wind load, supply facilities and transportation. It contains 15 lift shafts, evacuation staircase, service rooms and toilets. 2. Floor Plates Arrangement: Based on the functional area requirement of each level, the tower consists of 2 levels of underground car parking area (5m/level), 4 levels of podium(5m/level), 16 levels of low rise office (4.2m/level), 12 levels of medium-rise office (4.2m/level), 1 level of sky lobby (8.4m), 14 levels of hotel (3.6m/level), 4 levels of crown (4m/level), and 4 levels of mechanical floor (8.4m/level) arranged through the building. This leads the building to have 90603 m2 total gross floor area, 78539 m2 tower total gross floor area in 80.6% average floor efficiency. 3. Lift: There are 15 lift shafts with 21 lifts arranged through the centre core. All the lift shafts are opened on the ground floor. Inspired by the Sydney AMP center, goods & fire lifts are opened on all the levels; only 6 lifts open on the low rise office levels; the bottom level of the medium-rise office is the exchange level where both 6 low rise office lifts ended open; and 4 medium-rise lifts start to open; only 4 lifts opened on the medium office levels, and low rise lift shafts changed into function rooms; 6 lifts come back again on the sky lobby to supply the high rise hotel with 3 lifts only open on ground floor, top level of the medium-rise office and sky lobby for direct transportation and exchange; only two high-rise hotel lifts support to the crown levels. 4. Mechanical floor: Applied into the tower, the mechanical floor supplies levels under the following sequence - mechanical 1 on the top of the podium supplies 6 levels underneath and 10 levels above, 2 on top of low rise office supplies 6 levels underneath and 10 levels above, 3 on top of the sky lobby supplies 3 levels underneath and 10 levels above, 4 on top of the hotel supplies 4 levels underneath and 4 levels above.

1.2 STRUCTURAL CONCEPT

The structural system used for the Frost Tower is a concrete tube in tube with belt and outriggers at mechanical floors. This system was selected to ensure an open floor space and provide an unobstructed view on the corners. The overall massing of the building was based on our design intent to maximize view on the northern corners with a tapered built form towards the northern sky, producing a tower that is clearly identifiable in the skyline of the city of Melbourne. A reversed tapering form was also applied on the south-western and south-eastern corner, as a response to the wind affect. This tapering of the form is accentuated by our structural system as well as the use of different façade strategies for corners and the main façade. As a result of emphasizing the tapering corners, the system of two inclined small columns following the tapering shape and merging into a mega-column on the top or bottom is applied at each corner. The tapering shape of the building results in a unique floor plate of the tower at each level. For the main tower of the building the load of slabs are transferred to the beams beneath each floor. There are 3 beam systems (600*2400，400*2400 and 400*1200) to deal with different areas on the slab. The loads are hence transferred to the mega columns and intermediate secondary columns of the building, with a spacing of 9 meters. There are also 3 scales of columns (2100, 1500, 900 for mega columns and 700, 600, 500 for secondary columns) that transfer the load to the ground. The use of a belt and truss system dividing the tower into three parts was an indication of the change of structural elements among different levels. The core wall thickness taper from 450 to 250, ensuring the load is transferred from the perimeter to the core without unnecessary dead load. This structural system maximizes the load efficiency and structural stability without compromising the design intent. The crown uses a steel structure frame with universal beams and columns supporting the 3 levels of slabs stepping to the southwest corner, providing a multi-level roof garden to the northern skyline. The increasing height( from 3.6m to 27m) of the vertical cantilever columns on the perimeter of the crown is a formal extend to the tapering form of the main building, with a tapered depth from 1500 to 500. Universal beams are used to support the cantilever columns. This steel structure ensures that dynamic wind loads and live loads from the BMU usage are carried from the perimeter to the central core. At the podium two structural glass systems are applied to ensure transparency of the building to welcome visitors and minimize the threshold from the street. A cable truss net structural glazing system which is 20m high is used for the main façade of the podium with perimeter columns concealed in it. A space frame system with gutter grid in between creates a floating canopy for the podium, with a vertical cantilever from the top covering a semi-exterior terrace on the first level.

1.3 FACADE CONCEPT

The FROST tower is ambitious in terms of achieving its concepts of “history and modernity” by manipulating the façade design, while at the same time utilising the technical or aesthetical properties of each system implemented to the façade. With the help of parametric tools, we decided to use unitised panels with aluminium and concrete shading, cable system, as well as space frame to achieve its ambitions. With the main entrance facing the southern side, where Lonsdale Street is located, the building shows its most lovely gesture to this busy street in the city. The two giant triangles on this side have a slope from bottom to the top of the building, creating an illusion that the façade is leaning onto the street. And the envelope of the “triangular” façades is unitised panels without vertical shading to form a continuous and seamless appearance. We decided to use colourback glass spandrel to minimise the visual difference between vision glass and spandrels, hiding the transoms and mullions as much as possible. Moreover, the use of unitised panels allows a better view from the inside to the outside, especially for higher levels. The lower levels, however, predominantly use glass fibre reinforced concrete (GFRC) window frames for shading. This creates a very strong visual contrast between the concrete systems and the unitised systems. And the threshold in between is approached with a scattered gradience. This has made a soft transition between the two parts, giving people a sense that the two systems are embracing each other. It is also a mixture of history (concrete) and modernity (glass), integrating the symbolism of materials. It looks like the white GFRC is a layer of frost, that is wrapping around the glass part of the building. The aluminium shadings also varied in their depth at higher levels of the tower, forming a pattern, which added more textures and diversity to the façade. This clarity and “modernity” are also continued to the crown design of the building. With the vertical shadings extended and cut at the top of the crown with a slopping, geometrical line, we aim to convey a sense that the tower is slowly disappearing in the sky, instead of a harsh stop at the top. The envelope at the crown, however, is penetrable to allow natural ventilation to the habitable part of the crown, where a luxury restaurant is located. The parapet is set at a minimum of 4 meters for safety at the habitable area. The design also played with the structures on the façade for aesthetic reasons. The belt trusses at the mechanical floors are brought to the outside of the louvres to make the structures visible. The trusses work together with the triangles at the corners, to form a “geometrical” language of the design. The “geometrical” part and the “rational” language have shaped the profile of the tower. The FROST tower makes use of the advantages of each system, and became a “monument” of modernity and history.

WIND ANALYSIS

Circulation Entrance Transportation 1:500 @A1

This is the wind-tunnel analysis of different building surface conditions: the different colours indicate the speed of wind when going pass building surface. We have tested 2 desirable iterations, and discovered that the wind is always split up by the facade, whose speed peaks at the edges of buildings instead of sides. Hence we used the strategy of carving, to minimise the surface area at sides, in order to reduce the influence of wind. The shifted directions of cutting at adjacent corners also allows the building to have enough floor area.

The hotel on the top part is rised to form a gap, which became the sky lobby. Inside the cut edge are some double-high spaces, where lounges and other facilities are located at.

Crown lift: 2 lifts only open on the skylobby and crown to introduce public into the crown restaurant and sky garden to active the crown’s function.

Goods & fire lift: 2 lifts serve as the supporting system of suppliment and fire rescue, go through the entire building and open on each level, but stop on the crown first level-L51.

High-rise hotel lift: 4 lifts start from skylobby, these 6 lifts only supply the hotel transportation to make sure the protection of guests.

Medium-rise office lift: 4 lifts serve as the direct transportation to deliver people from ground to medium. Thus, it is not open on the low-rise office levels (L1-L19), but open on L20 to allow low-rise lifts exchange to medium-rise lifts. It would end on L33 to make sure the sercurity level of the upper hotel. On L33, people could exchange to skylobby lift to achieve hotel skylobby.

Skylobby lift: 3 lifts To ensure the sercurity level of the high-rise hotel, the skylobby lift only opens on the ground floor, top medium-rise office floor (L33) and skylobby.

Low-rise office lift: 6 lifts start from the ground floor and end on the top level of the low-rise office (L20). The high-rise hotel lift and crown lift would continue use the lift shaft on the upper level, but the shaft would change into function room on the levels in-between.

View

The building has been designed to be solid and enclosed at the sides, and to be open at the corners. The structures has been designed to make this possible.Each sides of the building has 2 mega columns while the triangular spaces on the corners are formed by 2 small columns, creating a continuous open space in between. This allows the facades at corners to be open, maximising the view from these rooms to the city.

Wind response

The major wind direction of Melbourne city is north. And the speed of wind peaks at both sides of the building. Our response is to minimise the area of facades at both sides, hence to reduce the peak wind speed. The belt trusses are added to four mechanical floors as well as the sky lobby of the building. While outriggers are added to the middle and top mechanical rooms, to reduce the affect of lateral loads.

Vertical Load

The load of slabs are transfered to the beams beneath each floor. There are 3 beam systems (600*2400, 400*2400 and 400*1200) to deal with different areas on the slab. The loads are hence transfered to the mega columns and small columns of the building. The columns are thin at top, and become wider at bottom, to transfer the load to the ground.

Permeability

The building has two major public open spaces: the roof and the balcony on the podium. The steel structures on the crown are designed to be light and hollow, so the ventilation could go through the roof top, where the premium restaurant is lacated at.

There is greenary on the two open spaces of the building: the roof top and the balcony. This is a feature targeted at VIP customers of the premium hotel. The slabs will be desigend with extra thickness to allow trees and other plant to grow on these areas. The structures are also made to be stronger to take the loads of the trees.

Design Intents: The tower aims to create a deluxe hotel & offices that respond to the location in the city. The geometrical shape of the building envelop reduces the influences of wind and maximises the view from the rooms. The tower’s curtain walls adopted two systems: the precast concrete window panels and the unitised system. Vertical shadings are installed on the unitised panels, and horizontal shadings are installed on the northern and western facade, where the PV panel located. The bottom half of the facade is wrapped around by concrete window panels & shadings. The is a scattering of these panels in the middle to form a “soft transition” between different systems, as our design language. The belt trusses are located on the mechanical floors and are exposed to the exterior. The envelope of the mechanical floors shifted inside to reflect a “structural language” of the building. The curtain walls on the four corners are also designed to be clear without shading to expose the structures on these parts. The atrium in the hotel part of the building reflects the passive strategies of the tower. The natural ventilation can go through the atrium, bringing fresh air to the hotel levels, and at the same time, cooling the rooms. PV panels on the northern & western sides of the building also produce power for the installation.
