BACKGROUND
Auraville explores how architecture can create a self-sustaining, affordable community where green mobility is seamlessly integrated into daily life. Designed in response to Australia’s housing and environmental challenges, the project supports adults aged 25–50 with cost-effective living solutions that prioritize both individual well-being and environmental resilience.
The proposal includes four distinct housing typologies to reflect diverse family needs, alongside a comprehensive masterplan that integrates housing, zoning, roads, and a vibrant community hub. The design incorporates renewable energy from solar and hydro sources, and promotes low-impact mobility through cycling and green mobility, envisioning a people-first community where affordability, sustainability, and connection define everyday life.
DID YOU KNOW?
36 YEARS OLD
42% MORTGAGE 39.1% PRICE INCREASE
Australia’s average first home buyer is closer to 36 years old whereas in 1970 the average was just over 25 yers old (Global survery, 2024).
House prices in Australia overall have also jumped by 39.1% in the last five years (BBC, 2022).
Australians had to use almost 42% of their income to make their mortgage payment whereas the suggested mortgage should not exceed more than 30% (Global survery, 2024).

In response to environmental pressure and the surge in standard living costs, there is a critical need to reconceptualize how communities are designed and sustained. In Australia, it is mentioned that residential property value has increased by around 20% in just over a year between March 2009 and March 2010, and Australian mortgages have significantly increased from 32% in 1990 to 142% in June 2010 respectively (MacKillop, 2013). To highlight this issue further, there has been an inadequate need for the necessary infrastructure to meet the rapid increase in the urban population especially homeownership for young people and middle to low-income households (Lai et al., 2023). This situation has led to ‘housing stress’ where more than 30% of the homeowner’s income is dedicated to housing costs (Sivam & Karuppannan, 2017). This literature review will examine the necessity for developing a self-sustaining, affordable community that fosters carbon-neutral living while creating a stronger awareness of the community and minimizing environmental impact. Furthermore, this literature review will analyze how various authors assess the effect of affordable, sustainable housing and explore strategies for implementing a carbon-neutral and self-sustaining pathway for future communities based on case studies and their findings.
Affordable housing can be defined as housing that meets acceptable standards of location and quality without being excessively priced to ensure that residents can meet other fundamental living expenses (Lai et al., 2023). To homeowners, housing can be seen as a ‘nest egg’ or ‘safety net’ as it symbolizes a source of wealth or investment for an individual during their active life (MacKillop, 2013). However, it is fundamentally tied to the challenges of achieving sustainable development as these two provide complex relationships with one another (MacKillop, 2013). Sivam and Karuppannan (2017) identify key barriers to affordable housing in Australia, including the cost of land, provision of infrastructure responsibility, restrictive zoning laws, lack of stakeholder and government interference, and community support. They advocate for the concept of a “compact, well-connected urbanism concept” to lower the cost of affordable housing and promote livability (Sivam & Karuppannan, 2017). Further, Adabre et al. (2020) provide more additions to these challenges by categorizing the main factors of barriers into social, economic, environmental, and institutional. They identified policy and regulation rules, along with the shortage of skilled labor are some of the top issues globally (Adabre et al., 2020). The challenges are further complicated as sustainability measures integrating solar tech or insulation are often perceived as costly,further increasing the affordability problem for the targeted homebuyers (MacKillop, 2013). Lai et al. (2013) investigate these issues using a quantitative research method on homebuyer’s perception survey. It reveals that respondent’s socio-demographic backgrounds and their social status have significantly influenced their perspective on housing factors in the market (Lai et al., 2023).
Feasible solutions to address these challenges are highlighted in the chosen articles. Promoting community participation in the housing design process, along with government involvement could be a potential pathway to achieving eco-efficient and affordable housing (Sivam & Karuppannan, 2017). Furthermore, Adabre et al. (2020) suggest that integrating sustainability practices into the policy framework could help identify key barriers and establish crucial criteria for developing strategy for sustainable and affordablehousing. On the other hand, a smarter design approach, such as passive design for shading and cooling combined with vernacular architecture can cre-
AFFORDABLE HOUSING
PATHWAY TO A SELF-SUSTAINING COMMUNITY
Key design strategies drawn from these case studies are highlighted in the mentioned articles. A self-sustaining village with low interference can be achieved through the use of passive solar design, water resource utilization, and local materials, creating a comprehensive set of design tools to meet the community’s operational goal (Xie et al., 2022). To strengthen key design strategies, incorporating hybrid and renewable energy resources such as solar power, biomass, biogas, wind, and geothermal from local resources can decentralize energy storage and evenly distribute power across the community (Kaur et al., 2024). Moreover, Haahs (2012) stresses the importance of effective land use through compact, mixed-use design strategies that place all the necessary infrastructures within reach, which can encourage pedestrian traffic flow and minimize the need for automobiles and parking.
The development of self-sustaining communities presents a systematic approach to environmental concerns, increasing infrastructure needs, and rising population. Haahs (2012) advocates for compact, “cellular” urban development that uses passive design strategies to promote walkability and reduce vehicle dependency, in contrast to “Fractured development” where every zone is separated. Haahs emphasizes the use of transit-oriented development (TOD) to minimize car dependency and unnecessary infrastructure demands, encouraging a stronger connection between the community (Haahs, 2012). The article supports the argument that ‘we can no longer afford to build cities for cars, not people’, which reflects the paper’s primary focus (Haahs, 2012). Moreover, Kaur et al. (2024) present a case study on energy self-efficiency in rural villages using bioengineering technology: hybrid optimization model for electric renewables (HOMER) and techno-economic analysis (TEA) models to utilize accessible onsite hybrid renewable energy sources. Their findings demonstrate that these technologies can pinpoint cost-effective energy solutions while supporting the local economy (Kaur et al., 2024). Further, another case study by Xie et al. (2022) examines a village operating within a low-interference cycle that can function independently without relying on non-renewable energy sources. Their findings also show that the village solely focuses on integrating passive design, a green economy cycle, ecological
The implementation of green mobility also plays a significant role in reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting carbon-neutral living. Echeverría et al. (2022a) conducted a case study analyzing the demographics and behaviors of green mobility users to identify which groups rely more on adopting a sustainable mode of transportation. The study found that individuals with higher education and income were more likely to prefer green transport options, indicating a gap in access equity compared to other groups (Echeverría et al., 2022a). Further, another case study by Echeverría et al. (2022b) explores the connection between individuals’ emotional well-being and their transportation choices. The study suggests that those who use active transport methods, such as walking or cycling, reported the highest level of well-being, followed by private car users, whereas public transport users reported the lowest level of satisfaction and emotional well-being, indicating another significant barrier to the adoption of green mobility (Echeverría et al., 2022b). Moreover, Tammaru et al. (2023) highlight a major equity concern from the gap between urban and suburban populations, advocating for an equity-centered approach to the mobility model. They argue that transitioning to sustainable mobility requires not only infrastructure but also social fairness, addressing capability, coupling, and authority constraints to promote a quicker transition to sustainable mobility (Tammaru et al., 2023).
Essential design approaches have been highlighted in the case studies to suggest the importance of integrating green mobility early in the master planning of new communities; which includes replacing underused parking infrastructure with transit-oriented development (TOD) and promoting active mobility (Haahs, 2012). Additionally, including well-being and social equity in the design, can further encourage the community to adopt a more sustainable practice toward a green lifestyle (Echeverría et al.,
FUTURE ADAPTABILITY
Future adaptability is a critical component in designing self-sustaining, affordable communities that support carbon-neutral living, ensuring long-term resilience and functionality. MacKillop (2013) suggests a new housing design approach that prioritizes affordability and sustainability through a passive design, reducing energy use, and minimizing community. Additionally, community participation and adaptive zoning policies can ensure eco-efficiency housing and community resilience Sivam & Karuppannan, 2017). Kaur et al. (2024) highlight the importance of improving hybrid renewable energy solutions to support sustainable rural growth over time. Future planning should also focus on low-interference cycles to minimize human impact, establish a green economy cycle, and incorporate community feedback (Xie et al., 2022). Furthermore, Tammaru et al. (2023) stress the need for a long-term planning approach in transportation and green living, particularly mobility access between urban and suburban areas.
GREEN MOBILITY IMPLEMENTATION
In conclusion, integrating affordable housing, self-sustaining communities, and green mobility offers a promising approach to creating environmental responsibility and social equity in the community. By addressing the ongoing challenges of affordability, sustainability, and the integration of green mobility in the community, this literature provides a valuable pathway for reducing environmental impact and improving the quality of life. However, the mentioned key factors such as balancing affordability with sustainability, ensuring future adaptability to the proposed factors, and equitable distribution of resources between urban and rural areas remain central to implementing a successful strategy. It is crucial to continue focusing on solutions that are not only sustainable but also adaptable to future needs, especially with the ever-growing population.

- Length: Approximately 40 kilometers (Melbourne’s second major river)
- Location: Flows through the northwestern suburbs of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
- Source: Confluence of Jackson’s Creek and Deep Creek near Bulla
- Mouth: Joins the Yarra River at Yarraville, eventually flowing into Port Phillip Bay
The
Maribyrnong River is well known for:
- Cultural significance: It’s a sacred site for the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung people, with a long history of traditional use.
- Industrial past: Was once a major industrial corridor, with factories and munitions plants, especially during the 19th and 20th centuries.
- Recreation: Popular for walking, cycling, kayaking, and the Maribyrnong River Trail, with parks like Brimbank and Pipemakers.
- The Maribyrnong River supports a diverse range of native plants and animals, functioning as a valuable ecological resource and a self-sustaining habitat for local wildlife.
- The Maribyrnong River Trail is one of Melbourne’s best-known shared-use paths for walking, running, and cycling, stretching for over 28 km.
- The riverfront is popular for picnics, kayaking, fishing, and rowing especially near Flemington and the Footscray area.
Shark and dolphin skeletons have been found under Maribyrnong Park, and oyster and other shells at Steele Creek.
The Aboriginal people of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and Bunurong of the Kulin Nation have lived along the Maribyrnong River valley for at least 40,000 years, and the name Maribyrnong derives from the phrase ‘Mirring-gnay-bir-nong’, meaning ‘I can hear a ringtail possum’.
DEFENCE SITE MARIBYRNONG
INTRODUCTION
The Maribyrnong Defence Site in Victoria is historically significant as one of Australia’s key military manufacturing facilities, established in 1908. It played a vital role in producing explosives and munitions during both World Wars and was also home to military research laboratories. The site included a Remount Depot that supported the Australian Light Horse Brigade in World War I and was the home of “Sandy,” the only horse to return from Gallipoli. Operations ceased in 2000, and the site is now heritage-listed, with plans underway for its remediation and redevelopment.
Defence Site Maribyrnong is a 127.8 hectare parcel of Commonwealth land located at 2 Cordite Avenue, Maribyrnong, in the City of Maribyrnong.
The site’s historical use by Defence resulted in contamination to land and groundwater which has only partially been remediated.

CONCEPT IDEA
Water Diversion:
The process of understanding the river flow and diverting it to the masterplan
The community hub layout is shaped by the site’s natural form
Drawing from an understanding of the site’s geography and topography, the water diversion system has been integrated to follow the natural contours of the land and the existing river flow. The design aligns with the site’s arching radius, creating a balanced relationship between the two landforms. Guided by principles of fluid dynamics and tangential flow, this approach not only enhances spatial harmony and landscape integration but also promotes energy efficiency, mitigates erosion, optimises infrastructure, and ensures that water is channelled effectively to areas of need.
