Semester 1, 2020

ASSIGNMENT Task 2 Pavilion Design Academic project Individual SITE LOCATION South Lawn, University of Melbourne, Parkville, VIC PROJECT DESCRIPTION “The book is a window to the world” In a world where definitions of sustainability is blurred by wrong definitions and corporate greediness or even ignored, education must be spread in all ways possible to the masses.

The pavilion will be a beacon and shelter of sustainability, educating the masses through books as it houses a library of ESD knowledge and a free space for ESD lectures and talks.

Complementing passive design strategies, the stark used of recycled windows from Victorian homes and warehouses enforces the reusability and sustainability idea the pavilion will spread to the people.

The project is located in South Lawn, being the most prominent area in the University, as the pavilion functions as a promotional tool for ESD strategies and the OEP faculty. The building is oriented North-South following the underlying University grid. By locating it near a major pathway, the perforated panel invoke a sense of curiosity of the building, in which people will feel invited and consequently being exposed to ESD knowledge. The pavilion serves as a beacon and exchange space for knowledge.

02 THE NEW OEP BUILDING PRELIMINARY RESEARCH

PROJECT BRIEF To design a new sustainable campus building

for the Office of Environmental Programs PROJECT TYPE Civic YEAR LEVEL

Semester 1, 2020

ASSIGNMENT TASK 4 AND TASK 5 Preliminary Reseach and Concept Design Academic project Individual SITE LOCATION On the site of Building 165 - Chemical

Engineering Building 1, University of

Melbourne, Parkville, VIC

BUILDING 16 5 NEW OEP

PROJECT DESCRIPTION The new OEP building occupies the site of Building 165. Due to increasing number of students per batch and their current building being inadequate and uncomfortable, a new building was proposed.

The building will need to accomodate the OEP faculty and its students in a comfortable space while showcasing ESD initiatives and strategies as a promotion to the public.

This section of the portfolio is a complilation of research, precedents, iterations, and design progress for the finished building.

VISION OF SUSTAINABILITY “Sustainable development has been defined as development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.”

-United Nations Sustainable Development Goals

The acts of today which will not endagers the needs and livelihood of the current and future generations.

Neutralization of impacts and factors towards the natural process.

Reusability, Recycling, Regenerative

A strategy

How do you make people act? To realise the impending future?

Through Education

Through Each Other

The Institution

The Insitution as the formal method for knowledge

“[A] rich opportunity for real solutions to urban sustainability challenges will come from close collaboration among urban systems scientists, representing all traditional social and biophysical disciplines, and urban designers and planners” (Childers et al., 2014)

The Nature

The Nature as a Teacher to inspire action

Biophilic design and nature intervention as a strategy tool

“sustainable community” vs “the individual”

makes you not selfish rather caring for others increased health (physical and mental) and wellbeing a bigger community creates a stronger bond, creating bigger action

“Solutions that “tweak” the current systems, and that work with or even take advantage of the inertia in those systems” (Childers et. al., 2014) “Solutions that are more transformative and may thus require new systems or new ways” (Childers et al., 2014)

think critically innovate provide solutions build awareness and

To be sustainable is not by creating greedy developments under the guise of ESD principles and call it a day. It is outdated. To be sustainable and achieve it we need actions that will not endanger the current and the future within our liifetime. We often always think about the progressive fully developed future without any consideration outside of the development bubble, our connection with nature. As humans we have not only a biological connection but a duty to nature. We should respond to it and respect it as nature is our original teacher.

No action towards sustainability can be done without knowledge and teaching, and no individual alone can change the world. A bigger concensus, effort, community, as a family of nature will create an action that resonates into the future.

Sustainability through action and education as a family community and nature as our teacher 6

RESEARCH FINDINGS

KHOO TECK PUAT HOSPITAL/ CPG CONSULTANTS + RMJM/ SINGAPORE, SINGAPORE

QUAY QUARTER (FORMER AMP CENTER)/ 3XN/ SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA

A pioneer in biophilic design for the users’ health and wellbeing in a healthcare setting. Other than the common ESD strategies of solar power, cross/natural ventilation, water recycling found on contemporary projects, the involvement of nature and greenery included in the design process is perhaps its most unique feature. The natural intervention of the hospital has brought many benefits, including improved wellbeing for both patients and hospital staff. Doctors, nurses, and other staffs have expressed their happiness in working in the hospital, compared to other common complaints about stress in common hospitals. The gardens are open to visitors as well from the surrounding community, and have said to bring back previously non-identified butterfly species in the area. The new presence of the butterflies have created a great impact on the staffs, patients, and community, as they now learns of the many faunas in the urban Singapore.

The former AMP Center was an eye-sore on the Sydney skyline. Being the tallest once it was built in 1986, it has grown inefficient and costly to run. 3XN won the competition to redeveloped the building area. Its unique approach is what won them the price.

They are reusing the core and 2/3 of the building, allowing for lowered embodied energy and carbon footprint. Intervention of green pockets and open office plans allows for increased wellbeing for its users as well as better collaboration between departments. The podium houses a public park and retail which opens it to the street.

With the advent of biophilic design, butterflies have returned and evoke a sense of protection towards nature, sense of awareness, and sense of knowledge. People realised what nature can bring into our lifes and create a desire to protect them.

People also become knowledgable of nature, in this case the new species of butterflies, plants, and the benefits of biophilic design.

PRECEDENTS

UNILEVER HEADQUARTERS/ AEDAS/ TANGERANG, INDONESIA

ISENBERG SCHOOL/ BJARKE INGLES GROUP/ AMHERST, USA

The primary precedent for this project houses 4 seperate Unilever offices under one roof. Open spaces and a central sky lit atrium houses event, collaborative, and breakout spaces for the 4 different offices. Bridges links programs together allowing for quicker passage and transfer of information, as well as collaboration between departments. Offices faces outwards allowing for natural daylight to enter and increased IEQ, complemented by green inserts throughout the building.

An extension to an existing campus building accomodating more study, breakout, event, and collaborative spaces. The use of a central courtyard coupled with the circular form allows daylight access into all parts of the building, creating an oasis in the city effect, where student can relax, reflect, and engage in social interaction. A grand double story atrium space was created due to the angular roof/wall form, creating a tapering effect where people above can view below. The use of copper for its array of vertical elements is durable for long term exposure and aesthetic effect, as the colour will change from dark ochre to an enduring patina.

TORANOMON-AZABUDAI PROJECT/ HEATHERWICK STUDIO/ TOKYO, JAPAN

A modern urban village located amongst the hectiness of the city, this project revolves around the idea of an urban pergola, where people can engage and interact. This particular element is the “public space” component of the wide Mori development. The undulating green roofs and tapering floors opens views throughout the surrounding and within the project, similar to BIG’s project above where people above can see the people below, a sense of connection.

The undulating roof also creates a “welcome” and inviting gesture for people to come and enjoy the space, a combination of commercial and a public square typology, which is targeted to be implemented in the OEP building project.

WASHINGTON-DULLES INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT TERMINAL/ EERO SAARINEN/

The Saarinen designed terminal is a graceful form reminiscence of the nature of flight. This form creates a grand space on the passenger side of the terminal, a grand entry space.

For this project, a similar feel is intended to be replicated on the upper floors of the building where the Home (OEP) typology is located. A grand space of a terraced study and classes under a curved roof, maybe of glass or solid for green roof.

WEEK 6

INITIAL CONCEPT Students, especially in the field of building--Design and not excluding the OEP, often feels alone which no one to share their ideas and feelings, to work together as friends and to an extent a family. Often caged within their own confines of the designed room, their ideas limited and their wellbeing deteriorates.

A space which embraces the Student with open arms is needed.

The OEP Community “...a place to come back to” “[sense of] family feeling”

Problem “home”, embraced

The University is overcrowded and need more spaces for teaching and study

close, together, bond

Build more than less, intra-campus development

A campus building of wellbeing and high IEQ. Open not confined spaces.

To teach and be taught. To enlighten and to educate. To invite and to excite.

Relations between the University and OEP The OEP has some degree of authority on its programs, admissions, outside the entity of the University, although within the University. The OEP programs are in collaboration with multiple disciplines across the campus, from Engineering to Architecture. This resulted in OEP students needing to move between classes in different buildings far apart.

Sustainability can act as a tool to create this lasting bonds and collaboration facilitated by design and architecture. This relationship extends beyond student and student, yet student and teacher.

Students of the OEP have an awareness to be in a group community, which in a level close to a family. The OEP represents the home, the sense of an embraced family community, and the unique environmentally sustainable education through nature. For this case, the feeling of home should be achieved in its spaces, to create a space of togetherness and community.

The Home OEP (Home)

The new site will accomodate the university faculties which needs rooms as well spaces moving collaborated OEP subjects within one building. The spaces required for these subjects are more formal and regulated spaces, such as laboratories. This cluster will represent the formal faculty insitution where students will receive education which supports sustainability practices of the OEP.

The OEP will have a home-y feeling, having a terraced form for open views towards the central atrium and green inserts and informal classes and spaces. Nestled under the proposed curved roof, daylight will flood the space.

INITIAL MASS FORM ITERATIONS ANALYSIS IDEA A.2-THE TAPERED ROOF

Iteration Matrix Perpendicular Masses

Stacked Program

Extrusion

Parallel Masses

The idea of angular roof was drawn here. The angular roof will have a pitch of roughly 30 degrees or more, to allow for effective PV panels placement. The diagonal nature of the roof allows for interior spaces to be terraced and stepped, allowing for sunlight to enter the rooms inside, as well as opening up views towards the north. Green inserts can be implemented in these terraces.

Additionally, the terraces can act as a class extension, where a class can have an indoor-outdoor feel while still being sheltered under the roof.

A.2 Tapered roof

X The parallel masses will overshadow the central common space, not ideal for a study/collaborative space.

The form has a possibility for reconsideration for the former post office area to be reused in combination with B.2+C.2

B.2 Curved Boolean

In this iteration, the angular idea is transformed into a curved shape, a boolean of a circle into the mass of the building. Initially, this is a strategy to produce power effectively, responding to the traverse arc of the sun. However, after further research, this is not an effective method. The strategy is later repurposed for sunlight penetration into a central atrium and a possible unique shaped green roof. This strategy also allows for multi story height spaces at the top of the building, suitable for rooftop indoor gardens and terraces for relaxation.

A combination of the terraced form in the inside is possible.

C.2 Terraced

X The two masses/clusters idea is not ideal as of now as it does not make sense to have 2 different buildings with the same function and program/without any difference in feel.

By using a tapered form just like in A.2, the space within opens up into a daylight filled space. It also opens up views towards the Northern endless suburbs. Incorporating the terrace idea allows for breakout spaces or extension of class space. Furthermore, a direct view connection towards the garden on Monash Road is created, improving the wellbeing of students with a view connection to nature.

Often caged within their own confines of the designed room, their ideas limited and their wellbeing deteriorates.

On the other hand, the Insitutional typology is very oppresived and one sided, allowing only for one way of communication, Teacher to Student without any peer help and interaction. Long corridors with walls on each side creates a long never-ending tiresome journey of education.

By taking into form the village typology, the space allows for inter- and intra-disciplinary transfer of knowledge, in particular ESD knowledge. Slowly but steadily, this is how the building promotes sustainability.

The building also acts as a showcase of ESD initiatives regarding materials and facade systems. Each “form” uses different materials and systems while remaining iconic, exciting, and inviting. Being located on a prominent thoroughfare of Monash Road, the building will invoke curiosity and realization for its surrounding communities.

The Idea

Collaborating is complemented with a “place to come back to” or belonging and ownership, close like family, yet not blood related. Working and exhanging ideas and sharing stories together as if we are in one village.

Through personal work desks and lockers, student lounges and breakouts, terraces, and a central “village square” court, the sense of belonging and ownership is created

SECTION C-C

PASSIVE DESIGN STRATEGIES

Solar PV panels for power generation and water heating (evaporated tube)

Summer sun

Winter Sun Green roof (turf) providing good insulation Shading system from western sun and prevent inner court overheating

High ceilings on top floor allow for stack ventilation Southern rooms utilise diffused/reflected light. e.g.: MSD southern rooms are well lit enough

Facade shading system (fixed or operable) Sunlight access for north facing rooms

Inner atrium and high ceiling create cross ventilation

Indoor vegetation for biophilic design and air filtration
