I believe the practice of Architecture should be curious innovative and meaningful. Extending beyond the simple physicality of building, every design is a constellation of intricate relationships, interactions, and histories that weave together and engage with the broader context in which they exist.
I am interested in how architecture and buildings can not only address client needs, project requirements, and social drivers, but also account for the context and disciplinary framework from which they emerge; acknowleging the contributions of those who preceded, those who will come after, and considering the experiences of those who will encounter it.
Through continuous reflection, learning and adaptation, I am driven to cultivate a practice that embraces the dynamic nature of the discipline I am working within, seeking impactful design through inventive and discursive approaches. (4)

CITY GIFTS
On the bank of the Yarra river, in the airspace next to federation square, sits a building with a front and a back. The front, an inscription of the back, the back, an instrument for understanding the front. Both are a map for reading the city. A panorama of the city but not in the way that it is known now.
A new City Gallery.
Acting as an extension to Federation Square, this project attends to the idea of a city through setting up a series of dialogues, situating itself within its own pedagogy, archaeology and genealogy, that constantly inflect and refract within and outside itself.
In all forms, this project is seeking a mechanism for holding the complexity of many things, in one thing, architecture. The building becomes an apparatus for accessing this discourse, demonstrating architectures’ ability to not only collect, but curate; not only to observe but to reflect and comprehend. The building becomes a memory of the things it knows within the context of its own existence, the project becomes the endeavor for comprehension.
Following a pattern of reflection, the New City Gallery understands Architecture and Major Project as reflective mechanisms that both have an ability and responsibility to reach outside of themselves - to create discourse with others, but also within themselves. My Major Project was a venture to locate. It was a presentation of the model in the model, and adjacent to the model. An exploration of what constitutes a major project, while I completed my major project, an inquiry into how cities are formed, while acting on a site in the city.
A legacy. An artifact of the city. An artifact of Major Project.
The New City Gallery is not a gallery because it holds things. It is a gallery because it consists of things.
In the city. Of the city. For the city.

In week 1, In a reflective task that indexed all the drawings I produced over my degree, I produced this drawing. The imposition of one project over another represents a convergence of timelines, a layering of occupation that blurs the distinction between subject and time. The legibility of this and the ability to distinguish one thing from another introduced an architectural problem of comprehension.
After 10 weeks of occupying my site, I had something that replicated the condition of the diagram from week 1. My site had become a collection of overlapping artifacts but I still needed to excavate the archeology. Folding the site up in on itself., the final building sought to find comprehension in the very thing it had originally ignored; the city. It became a caricature of the site as it was and holds an abstract quality that enables the city to be true.

Throughout the semester. the object of my attention shifted week to week, but the imaginary plane that I covered the Jolimont rail yards with, remained my site of experimentation, my petri dish.
These experiments became the context for which this project was situated Each week, a new venture accumulated on the site, a constructed history, or archaeology of the site. A constructed body of research through which this building relates itself to.
In week 10 I drew a diagram, an instruction that mapped the body of work against a series of architectural relationships. This diagram is not a diagram but rather the territory of my observations. A map, situating the body of work within its own pedagogy, archaeology and genealogy.
It was my Acropolis. An analogy for Major Project.

The project is a series of attempts to situate or contextualise what I am pursuing as a practitioner. Situating the project in context of myself; my labour and time. Situating it in the context of Major project. Situating myself in the context of Melbourne.
The architecture sustains this; constantly looking out and around you, the building takes moments to remind you of where you are standing, where you are going or where you came from.

The current understood value of ‘architecture’ has become static. Value is broken down and described through quantitative measures such as square meterage or number of rooms. Characteristics divorced from design; the dwelling is essentially a container.
This project looks to the attitude of cultural value attributed to art for its ability to extend value beyond market cost and instead root it in the reactions that are produced as an effect of experience. The project separates architecture into experiential thresholds, movement and light and shade with regulations that are dispersed across the numerous regulatory documents that we use to prompt experientially driven design.
Through shifting the accepted scale of compliance, using language that encourages compositional and experiential consideration, rather than just function, we can rewrite value back into the industry in a qualitative, rather than quantitative manner and shift the public’s understanding of architecture to one of active value rather than static.

must be readily openable without a key from the side that faces a person seeking egress, by --
anything else. This allows us to understand more about the world outside our own sphere of perception.
The relation between the light and the dark is also a question of perspective.
Light -(a) bounces off surfaces and shatters upon the floor. - the colours are not really important, but the effect they have on the observer is. - The individual hues of the wallpaper have no impact on this physical world other than to remind us, in a vague sort of way, that we are living in a physical dimension, at least in an abstract sense.
(b) reflects off the surfaces of objects. the effect is almost like the reflection of a reflection. It is not a reflection of the light itself, but rather of the person within it.
Shadows create --
(a) a kind of background. - like a painting on canvas. The light is not quite as bright as the light from the sun, but it is enough to make it seem as though the whole of the world is visible. The effect is rather like the effect of a light bulb being turned on and off. - the whole effect is one of solidity - a composite of light and shadow.

55.04-1 Responsive envelopes objective The point of interaction between public and private is to establish a way of perceiving, and to recognise the relation between what is real and what is imagined - to reveal the relation between individual thoughts and expressions. 31/08/2021 MB001 Standard B17
A form should extend itself beyond the design by which we see it - from the outside edge of the building to the inside, and from the inside to the outside as well. The edges become blurry so that each surface is nested in relation to the other. The past is not only a part of the present, but a part of the future. This applies the subtle influences of the world to create whole new experience.
The existing structure should be understood as a kind of geometric representation of the world around it. The building, the property, and the people living within it become, at the same time, a part of the structure.
- A person moves through the spaces created by other people, in the sense that they are constantly changing.
Shadows -- create a strange, almost luminous contrast. the blue of the sky seems to be an extra dimension, and the green of the grass seems to be drawn from it.
- create a kind of edge, like the outline of a building. the light is not quite right, but it is enough. the outline is not quite right, but it is enough.
The composition is not yet completed, it is never complete.
- dissolve the matter into a single mass, reconstituting it as a mass of solid matter which is then projected onto the site.
Decision guidelines Within the enclosing walls, the tone becomes more direct and the form more defined.
The designer must rely on experience rather than judgement. The threshold of movement allows the observer to accurately gauge the interiors and reactions of the objects. this information depends greatly on the perspective, relative speed of movement and the relative distance of the object.

SCALE OF COMPLIANCE
With the understanding that regulations occur in unison, it is essential that regulations of this nature are applicable across a range of scales and scenarios. To judge the effectiveness of the new regulations, this project presents three individual proposals that operate across a shifting scale: the dwelling, the building, and the block.

As we move towards a post carbon future, the processes that are currently in place for carbon generating energy methods (coal) will no longer be relevant and a system wide questioning is required. This project looks to reduce the separation of power generation and daily life through the combined housing of sustainable energy output, specifically the anaerobic digestion system, and the governing agencies that oversee its dispersal (AEMO, AER, ACC, VIC GRID, and any future agencies).
Located in Carlton, on the site where the Corkman Pub once sat, the project is an inquisition into how combining two seemingly disparate typologies, power plant and office, can force an interrogation into what these systems are to begin with.
As a result of these intersections, the project operates across multiple timelines, navigating the histories and futures that are embedded within them and incorporating the history of the site, the history of energy production, the construction site and process of bringing these new systems to site, and then finally, the present/ future of energy production.
This is a building for power, that powers.

As coal power plants continue to be decommissioned in Australia, remnants of their infrastructure are left behind. This building recontextualises these as objects to the urban setting, inserting them into the office typology structure alongside the Anaerobic Digester.
With the converging times existing in this building, the building becomes a container of sorts for the history and future of power generationcomplimented by its program of the government agencies that are in charge of the systems.

ASSEMBLY LABEL
Assembly Label is an Australian fashion retail brand that offers more than a simple clothing or retail store; it crafts a lifestyle of simple, minimalist quality for its customers. Through a refined layering of materials and textures, the design seeks to elevate the timelessness of the brand, creating a space that supports and celebrates
the product it displays. Assembly Label is a versatile brand that adapts to various contexts. The design shares the brand’s agility, seamlessly adjusting its materiality to suit the expansive settings it reaches.
From December 2022 to June 2023, I collaborated with the project architect to design and document a total of four stores in quick succession. Once a design language had been established for the brand, my role in these projects grew, and I took on the responsibility of developing a design for the Rundle Street store. Additionally, I delivered complete Preliminary and Construction Documentation sets for both the Rundle Street and Miranda stores.
These projects marked IF Architecture’s first use of BIM software, ArchiCAD. Alongside delivering the projects, I developed the office drawing standards and templates for the program.

MADELEINE DE PROUST
Project Address: 253 Lygon street, Carlton, VIC, 3053
Project Budget: $150,000 AUD
Project Area: 98m2

Madeleine de Proust is an up-and-coming Melbourne bakery dedicated to the sale of classic French madeleines. Referencing Marcel Proust’s term in ‘Swann’s Way,’ Madeleine de Proust speaks to the warmth of childhood memories.
Our concept embraces the classic design elements found in Australian milk bars, places that evoke similar nostalgia, but reinterprets them with for a contemporary retail environment. Drawing inspiration from the eclectic and layered interiors of milk bars, the design features a sequence of objects that come together to guide customers through the Madeleine de Proust journey, capturing the joy of selection while maintaining a sense of familiarity.
As my final project at IF Architecture, I had the opportunity to act as the lead designer on the Madeleine de Proust project, working alongside my director and another architectual graduate. In this role, I coordinated the project from pre-design to the completion of the construction documentation phase. This included liaising with the client, graphic designer, contractors, council authorities and suppliers, as well as managing the schedules and documentation set. Additionally, throughout the design & documentation process, I took on the responsibility of mentoring a recent architectural graduate, guiding their development within the team.
This project occurred within a very short timeline and included PD, SD and CD phases. Construction documentation was complete at the end of June with the store opening mid September. Despite the challenges posed by the short timeline and limited budget, it was important that the design reflected the quality of the Madeleine de Proust brand.

The Gatehouse st project is a single fronted, double storey terrace house in Parkville, Melbourne. The project involves renovation and extension to the existing terrace, and a separate double storey garage and studio structure at the rear.
Following approval of the concept design from the client, my role for this project involved the documentation and delivery of the complete town planning document which was submitted to the local council, Melbourne City Council, in late 2022.
As part of my responsibilities, I liaised with council representatives, as well as the consulting town planner, to ensure that the design and the application both met the planning requirements.
This project received a planning permit in May 2023 and is currently being documented prior to construction.

This residential project consisted of the conversion of a deconsecrated church in Elsternwick for a couple and their large extended family. The requirements for this project were expansive, involving architectural and interior design, furniture and accessories specification, as well as the development of the landscape in collaboration with a landscape architect.
My contribution occurred mainly in the earlier phases of the project where I frequently assisted the project architect with 3d modeling and design testing, as well as the production of presentation renders & documents that were presented to the client.
In addition to completing the internal measure up and documentation of the existing conditions, I assisted with the town planning application and worked alongside the project architect and team to deliver the Design Development and Construction Documentation drawing sets.
I worked on this project for the entire duration of my time at IF Architecture and while the project is architecturally complete, it is still waiting for the completion of the landscape in late 2023.

Old buildings are drenched in stories. Churches, similar to theatres, are the stage upon which performance and ritual are played out. The approach to this project was to pay homage to this by touching the building and its heritage lightly.
The design is an array of moments and observations within the greater whole, a setting within which new stories can be told.

In collaboration with grazia&co.
Working alongside IF Architecture’s director, Iva Foschia, I contributed to the development of a series of furniture items that are produced and sold by Melbourne furniture company, Grazia&co.
Each piece is the evolution of a bespoke piece of furniture of joinery from a past IF Architecture project; now adapted for commercial production to suit a range of new needs and scales.
Much like the design of spaces, the development of these pieces followed a highly iterative design process. Each version or item in the range required a highly individual and rigorous exercise of scale and proportion. Consequence of the shift from a buildingscale to an object-scale, a small adjustment can have huge effect on not only the way a piece looks, but also how a person may experience it.
