I am still working on the scale/ size of the rooms and what they'll be used for, moving forward I'm working on digitising the floor plan and some of the key areas that I would like to make elevations/ sections for. The are to the north hasn't really been fleshed out much yet

Hi Michael,

Sorry I couldn’t make it into studio today. Thought I’d quickly show you what I’ve been working on…

Lately I’ve been making some plaster models and arranging them in different ways to create interesting facades or floorplans. So far, I’ve only done ones of clouds, but I plan to do some nature inspired models tonight!

- continue to explore and play with the double sided storage as a system. You don't need to necessarily be specific in the exact location to this building to, but you can work it as a system that can adapt or then later work with floorplan that is developing...
- The snugglepot/ cuddlepie (and Australiana) of materials and tones could work from the timber spines as a feature to the way spaces feel or engage. The timber is there, but what about the green or leaf? how could that impact the concept of timber spines.
- the spine language might not have to work for a second entrance (as we have already discussed), but can work for creating highlight or impact of the internal spaces that you are trying to arrange. Whilst we might not have a second formal entrance for clients, you could flip the floorplan north and create another foyer or common space at before the wing turns again around the external play area...

- good consideration of the structural grid capacity and how you might use this
- breaking up the building might be a challenge but consider how certain zones or spaces are broken up - particularly the staff spaces - do they have to be in one zone or broken up throughout the plan?

# data[].attributes.body

- Zero Threshold Landscaping?
- Draw out some concepts...

# data[].attributes.body

- keep to the site boundary
- 3D massing and form making are great approaches, but you need to test this back to the zone and actual spatial sizes.

# data[].attributes.body
coming...
- good zoning options, test each one with actual spaces to size and scale of the brief...see if one will work better than the other.
- consider the vertical capacity of the form from the plan
- conceptualize the internal space (like you precedents) on how those ideas come back into this proposed building.

# data[].attributes.body
coming...
- interesting to try to just occupy the north of the site...keep pursuing this.
- be careful with a second entry proposal and that it doesnt remove the purpose of the main entry... it is the centre of the site.
- second or more entries and exits are possible, but think of the operation of the building and language of the form.

# data[].attributes.body
coming...
- good start with a planning proposition, but try to tighten this up with constant redrawing and getting things resolved towards the project brief and list of spaces.
- explode your drawing capacity, draw, redraw, draw the section - evolve the concepts through drawings and different views.

Really need to explode the design work of the project. The ideas you are coming from are fine, but would love to see how this translates into Design and your visual ideas to the brief. Reach out to me next week to go over that with you if possible.

Might try modelling the site with nature, to understand the concept better and move forward .

Have to still accurately draw up the site analysis frm week 1 and the precident studys influences.

Confirming that we will run a bazaar review of your AT01 in the a+b Gallery (fingers crossed) or Padlet (plan B) on Thursday 19th of August 11am to 1pm.

I will invite several academics and (hopefully) the architects to come to engage with you during this time.

If you are unable to participate on the 19th of August, please reach out to me privately and we can discuss.

# data[].attributes.body
I have to finish a bit of the rubric evaluation statements for the last 2 ULOs, but this is how I will score your AT01 in a couple of weeks.

The rubric evaluation will be quite simplified and I hope to have it to you ASAP.

Good morning All!

Out of lockdown, but not quite when it comes to your study :(

We will continue to try to make the best of it, but please reach out to me if you just need to talk (beyond this session this morning). My job, as hard as it is for myself as well, will be to try to keep you motivated...

Today we will look at the work you have all been doing for the week around developing concepts.

I will turn the microphone over to you all and encourage you each to respond and discuss the concepts. Engage with each others concepts in two ways - verbally over the Zoom and with comments in the Padlet.

By the vote in Teams, we are going to do this as a larger group and I expect it to run for about 2 hours.

Upload your new concepts to Padlet and you will share the screen when it is your time. No particular order, we will just go with the flow.

We will talk about the next phase towards the end and I will confirm that with some notes in the Padlet and Teams.

Main design goals include environmental sustainability, low running costs, natural landscaping and universal access

Architectural style and built form

·      Use recycled and / or low embodied energy materials

·      Colours that have muted/natural tonal qualities.

·      Low toxicity materials should be used where possible. Avoid the use of PVC materials.

·      Low VOC materials should be used to enhance indoor air quality

·      Draw from the environment for shapes and forms

Landscaping

·      Encourage walking and cycling; to provide opportunities for social interaction

·      Connection to outdoor spaces should consider prevailing winds

·      Indigenous and native plant species to facilitate the harmonious integration of the built environment with the natural environment.

·      Presents as a continuous “bushland” garden

·      Bring the plant life indoors?

·      Vegetable or interactive garden

Sustainability

·      Siting & orientation: building design should be sited to maximise passive design outcomes

·      connected to rainwater collection tanks

·      West facing windows should be minimised to protect from solar heat gain

·      Controlled cross flow ventilation to provide fresh air

Universal Access

What Design Ideas would you like to bring? This is central to the first phase and can bring 15 different approaches and ideas towards the project as a whole.

Over this week, each of you should explore a key central idea for this project. There should be atleast 2 scales of thinking in mind, one from a wider view of the planning and arrangement and one from a narrower scope of a particular space/ detail/ or requirement of the brief.

Do not get caught up in the specifics, but try to make the ideas you generate relative to this project and on this site. You can fudge some of the lines in this exploration and try to get the idea out in the open rather than foolproof.

Explore in drawing, explore in planning, explore in section, explore in 3D – visualize what this idea is.

Once you established one idea – then begin to layer and expand this idea with other influences and considerations…
