ACADEMIC PROJECTS

  • Design Studio Epsilon

    2025 Semester 2

    This medium-density residential project uses a privacy gradient and layered living to balance communal and private spaces. A 5×5 structural grid organizes dwellings, circulation, and gathering, while timber elements and landscaping mediate public–private thresholds. A central courtyard anchors the community, with smaller cluster courtyards fostering semi-public interaction, creating a cohesive environment of connection, privacy, and belonging.

    Architectural Technologies 3: Implement

    2025 Semester 1

    At 524 Flinders St, a vertical second skin system and louvered windows showcases a structural tectonic approach, optimising light control and privacy. Elevated floors, waterproof materials, and wind barriers meet regulatory and performance standards. Zinc panel facade and acoustic glazing fortify the building envelope, enhancing durability. Despite higher initial costs, the material selection prioritises long-term value, stakeholder engagement, and environmental resilience.

  • Design Studio Delta

    2025 Semester 1

    Enterprise Park Library reclaims a narrow green strip beneath Yarra River overpasses as a calm refuge within the city. Framed by elevated roads and towers, the design embraces “serenity within chaos” through a western colonnade that filters light, frames river views, and mediates movement from urban noise to quiet reflection. A sunken central courtyard acts as both playground and entrance, reducing noise while guiding visitors upward into the foyer. Children’s spaces animate the courtyard, while adult study pavilions hover above in calm. Warm brick, timber, and perforated masonry ground the architecture, dissolving chaos into clarity.

  • Architectural Technology

    2024 Semester 2

    Flipbook Section

    This project examines Northcote House's design and construction, emphasising architectural intent and building technologies. Through six construction stages, it enhances skills in technical drawing and sustainable practices, producing detailed drawings and annotations highlighting sequencing, materials, and Australian standards compliance.

  • Design Studio Gamma

    2024 Semester 2

    Living Neighbourhood, Living House

    This project develops medium-density housing for 16+ inhabitants, emphasizing sustainability, passive design, and diverse dwelling types. Deliverables include detailed drawings and models showcasing ecological strategies, natural lighting, cross-ventilation, and integrated indoor-outdoor spaces, promoting functional and environmentally conscious living environments.

  • Design Studio Beta

    2024 Semester 1

    The Figures

    This project reimagines community spaces by integrating architecture and landscape. It emphasises sustainability, inclusivity, and public engagement through pavilions, gardens, and playgrounds. Deliverables include drawings, perspectives, and a video walkthrough, showcasing thoughtful design and user-centered experiences.

  • Design Studio Alpha

    2023 Semester 2

    Utopian Dreams

    The project designs urban micro-infrastructures in Lincoln Square, Melbourne, for diverse social and economic exchanges. Guided by imagined protagonists, it emphasizes site responsiveness, innovative design, and integration of form and materiality through drawings, models, and reviews.

  • Foundation of Design: Representation

    2023 Semester 1

    These modules explore foundational design concepts: "Flatness vs Projection" focuses on creating axonometric Mario World representations using hand and digital techniques; "Surface vs Pattern" investigates digital modeling and patterning on terrains for hybrid design; and "Frame vs Field" reinterprets spatial narratives through isometric and perspectival representations, merging 3D modeling with storytelling.
