Swinburne Station: Swin 15

SWINBURNE STATION!

ROHIT NAIR

BACHELOR OF DESIGN (ARCHITECTURE) ARCHITECTURAL DESIGN STUDIO 5 SEMESTER 2, 2019 SWINBURNE UNIVERSITY UNIT CONVENOR - DR. IAN WOOCOCK

ABSTRACT SWIN 15 is a proposal for the re-design of Glenferrie Station. It tackles the issue of the disconnect between Swinburne University and the general Hawthorn community. As well as providing a much needed front door/main entrance for the university.

This design proposes a tall 15 storey building to be an iconic structure for Swinburne. To put Swinburne and the station at the centre of the current campus and to be eyecatching for the entire community. The program includes new open public spaces as well as private floors for the university and for lease.

SWIN 15 embraces the station as a central point for the university and the community, by bringing it further into the site.
