The site is 81 Bouverie Street, Carlton Vic 3053. It is currently occupied by a 2 storey vacant building that was previously a “Tyrepower”. The building to the north across Queensbury Street is constructed from a mix of brick and concrete, to the east is a scape building with a multicoloured façade. And majority of the surrounding buildings are brick, concrete or some other form of masonry. There are gumtrees running down the centre of Bouverie and Queensbury street. The area is quiet with most traffic on Queensbury. A cafe in the building to the west, and another to the south.
The site measures 23.4 meters along the West to East perimeter and 19.8 meters along the North to South perimeter
Typology:
A new RMIT University Architecture Hub is to be designed for the site
Users:
The intended users are both students and Staff with amenity to be provided for both. Students ranging from first year through to PHD and more of a focus on tutors with a direct interaction with students, and creative roles
Architectural Programme:
The building should serve as a an all encompassing university architecture building and provide all the amenity necessary
A library to house architecture books, specifically Peter Corrigan’s Recently Donated Personal Library Lecture Theatres, for smaller groups of roughly 50-100 persons, a minimum of two to allow for multiple lectures at once Creative/collaborative Office space for tutors. Designed for moderation of work, collaboration in creation between multiple groups. Areas for exhibition of students, tutors and professionals work
Kiosk/Café Space
Bike storage
Goals/Consideration:
The client has expressed a particular focus on the works of Louis Kahn and Frank Lloyd Wright, urging the incorporation of their design philosophies
The building must host a variety of adaptable spaces that cater to different teaching and learning methods. Provide areas for collaborative work, individual study, presentations, workshops, as well as exhibitions.
The building must feature a great deal of natural lighting while minimizing glare and heat gain. Sustainable design practices, including daylight har vesting and shading systems, will be employed to enhance energy efficiency, maximize the use of natural light throughout the building and create a visually appealing and stimulating environment
While promoting natural lighting, the Hub will also provide an insular atmosphere, offering students a sense of seclusion and focus within the bustling university environment. The building must exist within and connect to the larger university context. It must establish visual and functional connections with other RMIT University buildings, ensuring a cohesive campus experience
Through a careful consideration of the local context, the integration of great architectural inspirations, the provision of flexible learning spaces, a focus on natural lighting, the creation of an insular atmosphere, and a strong connection with the larger university, the Architecture Hub at RMIT University will embody the aspirations of the client while providing an exceptional environment for architectural education and exploration
We have designed a university’s architecture building for our project, drawing inspiration from the architectural greats such as Louis Kahn and Frank Lloyd Wright, as well as the surrounding context. Inspired by Louis Kahn’s Exeter library, we incorporated a mix of concrete and timber in the interior, with native blackbutt. Additionally we pulled from Frank Lloyd Wright’s SC Johnson Tower with its double-height levels and mezzanines.
The brick facade, inspired by Kahn’s circular motifs, not only pays homage to his work but also integrates harmoniously with the surrounding predominantly brick architecture. The exterior brick facade is hit and miss to provide ample light as well as an insular feeling, the ability to watch and be unseen The exterior brick facade is hit and miss to provide ample light as well as an insular feeling, providing privacy and a sense of obser vation, the ability to watch and be unseen.
To ensure ample natural light, we strategically placed the core of the building on its southern boundary, allowing light to permeate deep into the spaces.
The building features a publicly accessible cafe and exhibition space, giving opportunity for students display works, see the works of professionals and observe the direct impact of their creations.Our building is designed to cater to the needs of both students and working staff, offering flexible learning and working spaces.
The flexible workspaces for staff are thoughtfully designed to accommodate different groups, allowing them to collaborate or work independently as needed. Inhabitants are provided with ample open spaces, enabling them to unleash their creativity and bring their ideas to life.
Situated at the northeast corner of RMIT’s City Campus, the building is carefully aligned parallel to Swanston Street, the campus’s central spine. This alignment establishes a strong connection with the overall context of RMIT, reflecting a thoughtful integration into the existing urban fabric. Taking inspiration from Louis Kahn’s interest in Scottish brochs, our building serves as a watchtower, emphasizing its presence and creating a visual landmark. The form and materiality, inspired by the brochs, including the brick facade, contribute to this concept.
The library, a primary study space, features a large cut opening in the outer facade, distinguishing it from other levels. This unique feature creates a different atmosphere within the building, offering a captivating and inspiring environment for focused study. Moreover, the height of this space maintains the insular feeling provided by the brick on other levels, ensuring a sense of privacy and concentration.
In summary, our 9-storey architecture building serves as a premier creation space, inviting individuals to observe, absorb, and create with consequence. It integrates design inspirations from Louis Kahn and Frank Lloyd Wright, harmonizes with the surrounding context, and establishes a strong connection with RMIT’s overall campus. With its flexible spaces, publicly accessible areas, and thoughtful attention to light and atmosphere, the building aims to inspire creativity, collaboration, and meaningful engagement within the university community.
