INTRODUCTION
“SYDNEY HARBOUR ‘BAYS PRECINCT’ - AN URBAN ARCHITECTURE OF TIMBER” PETER MURRAY
The foreshore of Port Jackson and its maritime past provides some of the most exciting redevelopment sites in the Sydney region. The sites for this studio, Blackwattle and Rozelle Bays, form part of the ‘Bays Precinct’ harbour side redevelopment areas administered by UrbanGrowth NSW. The studio program took a journey through the design process from the development of core planning/urban design controls for the selected sites; establishment of a client’s brief and its translation into spatial form; resolution of basic structural and construction systems; consideration of environmental controls and issues of sustainability; to the fine detailing of the architecture of a public building. Core to the studio was an exploration of the use of timber as a major architectural material. For all projects, timber was required to form the building structure and construction, and, critically, to define the architectural character of the design proposal. Evident in the following pages, the program generated an exciting and diverse range of building types and engaging architectural outcomes. Each proposal reflects its author’s current focus, interests and skills. Some push the structural game to its limits, others more focussed on fine detail. Some working to highly specialised client briefs, others less specifically defined. For all a better appreciation of timber’s potential use in the making of fine architecture. It has been a pleasure working with the group over the year and I hope the experience stands each of you in good stead as you make your way into your professional careers both in Australia and abroad.

“Creating a sheltering canopy reminiscent of the mangroves native to the area” The Bay’s Precinct has a rich industrial heritage, however in recent years the foreshore areas have fallen into disuse. The Blackwattle Bay Research Institute aims to play a part in the revitalisation of the area by establishing a multidisciplinary research and education facility. A dynamic relationship between public and private spaces is developed contributing to the establishment of a more engaging public domain. The planning of the facility draws from precedent such as Kahn’s Salk Institute to create a series of spaces that balance collaborative work areas and more private spaces that allow for focused thought. Allowing cross pollination between disciplines. The northern facade of the accommodation wing is entirely given over to public use. The ground level serves as Bridge across the bay, while wide semi-private corridors at levels 1 and 2 double as long balconies onto which all of the apartments open. The apartments themselves face south over the new mangroves providing a more contained vista sense of space. The form of the building draws from its context. The repetition of orthogonal frame elements referencing Sydney’s harbour’s industrial heritage, while also creating a forest of vertical elements supporting a sheltering canopy reminiscent of the mangroves native to the area. The glass roof with plywood light diffusion system serves to create evenly lit interior spaces but is also used for regulation of internal temperatures. 1vw1In the summer months the roof cavity heats sucking cool air off the water and up through the building. In cooler months the cavity is sealed and used to heat air for the building

“An amalgamation of preservation, restoration and public participation� Situated at the junction of two major public precincts, the Sydney Heritage Fleet Rozelle Bay Complex is made up of restoration workshops, a museum and a visitor centre. In cohesion with the objectives and core values of the community based nonprofit organisation. The complex aims to use architecture to facilitate pedestrian movement and exposure of the Sydney Heritage Fleet. The rugged man-made shoreline left behind by former industrial entities will be incorporated and transformed into major public spaces, while the existing slipways provide the ideal infrastructure for heritage marine vessels restoration and an excellent stepping stone for an integrated facility. Instead of having the traditional layout of restricted workshop areas, the restoration subject in the premises becomes part of the complex; maximising interaction between the exhibits and the visitors.
The public is invited to pass through the building as part of their daily travels
Together with community oriented retail and green spaces, the new Sydney Heritage Fleet complex will be part of a broader urban development plan for the Bays Precinct, transforming the former industrial area into a bustling hub. Building works with the existing rugged shoreline to bring boats in

With a highly exposed structure and honesty to the materials, INNO-PLEX tries to recall the past memory of the boat building process and timber industry of Rozelle Bay. In response to the significant maritime industrial traditions and working harbour of Rozelle Bay, and the maritime workers shortage in Sydney with the budget cuts in the Australian higher educ ation sector, the Inno-plex aims to develop a new way of learning by introducing the concept of “University-Industry Research Partnerships� into architecture and celebrate the last industrial working harbour within inner Sydney. Inno-plex is a combination of learning, research, innovation, affordable offices and workshops, in order to form an interactive production and research cycle for the industry. While the Pavilion caters for the general public as an exhibition space for the Maritime Industry, creating a public square and a meeting point for the locals in Rozelle. The development has a high awareness of the on-site environmental credentials of timber Timber structures are carefully considered as the psychological and physical benefits by using in educational and office building. The primary structure is an abstraction of a boat building, manifested as, the fish-bone truss, repetitive structure. With a highly exposed structure and an honesty to the materials, the development tries to recall the past memory of the boat building process and industry.

“The rhythmic undulations of the timber portal frame creates a flexible and dynamic community space.� Influenced by the development of Sydney harbor, the intent of the proposed Rozelle Bay Community Centre design seeks to provide all visitors with a sense of safety, comfort and community. Engineered timber construction details fuse with modern architectural features to present a unique, contemporary atmosphere. The site is adjacent to the public square and face to Rozelle Bay foreshore. The design of this building and site is to enhance the pedestrian activity of this area, connecting them to the context of surroundings.
Interior
The aim of this design is to bring the city life into and through the building, which is a multi-purpose community space. The concept is to extend the public open space into the community centre. This Rozelle bay community centre leads visitors through the space providing interest through variety. A warm, inviting color of materials speak to the earth and every visitors. Engineered timber as the main material is durable, eco-friendly, which contributes to the development of sustainable design.

The Rozelle Bay Community Centre comprises exhibition galleries, auditorium, library, children’s areas, cafÊ, meeting places and administration office. All main public functions have been centered into one generous space, allowing the structure combined with furniture and technical device. This design creates semi-outdoor spaces and uses glazing face to foreshore. Furthermore, the community centre was open and easily accessible from the main square and waterfront. At the main entrance, the ribs form the loggia, which connects the street and waterfront space.

“The timber structural members and steel tension members are structurally combined to create a tectonic expression which reflects the industrial and maritime identity of Rozelle Bay” Building on the unique history of Rozelle Bay’s industrial past, the proposed Maritime Education and Maintenance Centre aims to provide measures and services in recognition to the issues in the maritime industry, as well as maintaining Rozelle Bay’s identity as a working harbour. Creating a public learning environment is an important part of the project. Student learning activities and boat maintenance process are showcased to the community to encourage social interaction. The education and maintenance centre work together to maximise students’ learning opportunities and experience.
Double height workshop space
The main structural idea of the scheme is inspired by the suspension system of sailing ships: the primary wooden round columns act as the masts extending vertically from the deck, while the enclosed space is suspended by tension members, just like the sails. The timber structural members and steel tension members are structurally combined to create a tectonic expression which reflects the industrial and maritime identity of Rozelle Bay.

“Delivering a theatrical sensory world, The Centre for Sustainable Timber is an exemplar exhibition building providing new civic spaces to strengthen community whilst providing a platform for public timber education� Showcasing the ideology of the tree of life and translating it into a self-sufficient building that occupies the inhabitants and the public with its ability to harnesses rainwater and generate electricity, whilst housing educational facilities, retail and active public communal areas. Focus has been brought to the foreshore of Blackwattle Bay with the key vitality of keeping the narration of the bay alive with its rich industrial history, as well as bringing a revolutionary and systematic change to its future development.
External Public Foreshore
Experimenting with the idea of drama and performance, there is a dialect of revealing and concealing (exhibitionism and spectatorship), in and around the building that constantly drives the viewer in and out. With the ultimate intent to provide a unique theatrical experience where the barrier between, public and private spaces are constantly shifting. The building connects the public with the process of tree plantations and timber production, whilst highlighting and emphasizing the historical references and key essence of Blackwattle Bay, which were neglected and forgotten.
