ECORESILIENCE BY WALKING THE TALK JUNE 2019 The Lorimer precinct is located in the south of Lorimer Street and the north of Westgate Freeway. This area is one part of the Fishermans Bend Urban Renewal Area. The distance of the precinct and Melbourne CBD is about 15-min drive. Existing warehouses and factories will not accomodate significant population growth in the next 20 years.

Proposed by government • Warm northerly winds prevail in winter, resulting in occasional warmer days (City of Port Phillip). • Wind direction varies in summer mornings but tends to be southerly in afternoons. Southerly wind from ocean can cool the environment. Therefore the installation of openable high level windows will be in southern facades(City of Phillip).

Although the Lorimer precinct will be one of the capital zones in Melbourne, the business zone is planned to be in the northwest of Lorimer, not in the investigated area. Based on the governmental requirement and the analysis in the first assignment, it is potential to develop a low carbon community and a climate-adapt city(see Concept Mindmap). Moreover, the new community will remind visitors of ancient swamps in the past site and optimize a pedestrian-friendly environment by offering and organizing explorative, terrain-dynamic and climate-responsive landscape. Therefore, the landscape creation can delineate the punny title, “Ecoresilience by Walking the Talk�.

Cyclists also can have an on-road lane. • Exclusive tram lanes and car lanes are in the north of the design area.

Dynamic Stages Mini sunken platforms not only play roles of the water collection but also provide stages for buskers. It may heighten the artistic ambiance.
The grass slope will soften the edge of the bridge and add interest by dynamic landforms. People can have a picnic at the gentle slope. The pattern of the steep slope connected the bridge will be refined in the next step, for example, spiral slopes or curvy shapes.
The pattern of wetlands will be responsive to the water level. Wooden pavements and endemic plants may lead pedestrians across the area. It can remind visitors that the open space was a swamp in the last two centuries. Water platform will drive people to enjoy their time with the water. 9

KINFOLK BOUNDARY--PORTSEA RESTORATION JUNE 2018 Before the erosion occurs, people are tended to stay at the beach. However, decreasing number of vistors will have fun at the Portsea Pier not only because of the loss of the beach but also the shortage of attrations.

Portsea Portsea is located approximately 60 kilometres (37 mi) south of the Melbourne CBD, on the opposite side of Port Phillip Bay. It has one of the highest average incomes in Australia. But the development of economny influence the environment closed to the sea. 23

KINFOLK BOUNDARY
KINFOLK BOUNDARY -- PLA
What is Kinfolk ?
Kinfolk is Inspired by the idea of â&#x20AC;&#x153;slow livingâ&#x20AC;?, turing towards nature and friendliness. The conception comes from interior design and art design. Landscape architecture is potential to take advantage of the attitute towards slow-pace life .
Kinfolk towards water flow The deepen channel dreged a huge amount of silt and caused the acceleration of water speed. Powerful water flow eroded the coast and destroyed the beach where people prefer to enjoy sunshine. Compared to protect against the tide through stone walls and abandon the beach, it is alternative to retard the water flow through landscape design.
Kinfolk towards the ocean-land boundary Before the erosion occurs, people are tended to stay at the beach. However, decreasing number of vistors will have fun at the Portsea Pier not only because of the loss of the beach but also the shortage of attrations. Vistors will spontaneously stay if more selections of entainterment. Following speclations may change the visiting tempo at the Portsea Pier.
1. Multiple entrances
2. Difference of elevation
3. Opportunities to observe and touch the water
Kinfolk towards the envirionmental awareness If we did not interview a person who works on environmental protection, it is difficult to understand the latent reason of the erosion. Visitors should stay at the pier so that they can have adequate time to discover the ocean environment. The Kinfolk Boundary focus on a speculation combined with slower water flow and a more interesting pier. People can enjoy the visit even though the loss of beach cannot be solved. When the visiting time extends, they will gradually notice the environmentral problem.
The simple structure of the pier and the monotonous visiting route can not attract users to stay without a beach. From a design perspective, the Kinfolk Boundary has to respond to water speed and the loss of entertainment.

Multiple selecitons of the access to the pier can enable people to stop and think which way is the best. The central pavement is constructed from the existing slope. The pavement will be submerged by the flood tide so that concrete material compose of the surface. Wooden pavements on the both side extends the exisiting upward path to the sea at the air. When people starts to choose the route, they can slow down and observe the water flow conditon.

ALLEVIATE EROSION
Considering the construction cost. A swimming pool like the Bogey Hole is not practical. Kindfolk Hole will add natural interest by the coast and enable visitors to observe the alteration of the water. When water flows through the stone piles, slower water may meet stone heap which is used to protect against the erosion at this time at the portsea pier. The stone heap can refuse the highest tide of the day (almost 1.8m). Re-constructed stone heap will be be 20cm lower so that the slower water can enter in the Kinfolk Hole. The depth of the hole is 5-10cm higher than the height of the ebb tide. It can prove that pipeline can drain away the water into the sea.
