INTERPRETATION CENTRE
The project brief aimed to design a center dedicated to raising awareness and providing education to the public regarding the urgent need to address global climate issues and cope with extreme weather conditions.
With the average temperature of Australia having increased by 1.47 ± 0.24 °C in the last century, it is imperative that the built form demonstrates resilience to these harsh weather extremes.

The structure was conceived as load-bearing rammed earth walls with timber roof openings designed to harness North-Easterly breeze winds and diffuse light. Beneath the concrete floor, a labyrinth system runs air through the perimeter of gabion walls, facilitating passive heating and cooling of the air.

04 SHARK POINT CLOVELLY PAVILION
The Beach Pavilion at Clovelly designed to house Gallery, bar, amenities and services for leisure and recreation in the neighborhood. Its oriented in a north-south direction and features a simple yet elegant arch form made up of double-layered laminated Glulam timber laths that span over 18 meters.
The lattice shell of the arches is constructed using 106 x 106mm layers of timber. Additional blocks added to provide shear to the structure. These arches are connected to the post base of Prefabricated reinforced concrete, with the abutment and foundation taking the direct horizontal thrust of the structure.

06 SOCIAL HOUSING
Can social housing effectively provide essential infrastructure and bolster economic activity to meet the diverse needs of a community within a single location?
This project seeks to design a social housing scheme that acknowledges and connects with the socio-cultural realities of the Indian community, known for its fluid and dynamic daily activities.

The scheme comprises five blocks interconnected by a central spine and a stringer beam staircase, forming a seamless urban integration that enhances the site’s connectivity and accessibility.
Each block features ground-floor shops, promoting economic activity and fostering community interaction at street level. This design not only creates defensible spaces but also enhances sociability within the community.
The upper floors feature units arranged around functional courtyards, serving as backyards for residents and offering them opportunities for healthy recreation and access to essential amenities.
These units are designed to be flexible and adaptable, capable of accommodating multi-generational living arrangements and accommodating the fluid activities of residents. Additionally, they provide incremental space that can be rented out or customized to meet future growing needs.

07 DOCUMENTATION TECHNIQUES
The course focuses on documenting the design of the Western Sydney Stadium, providing students with a schematic design to prepare a complete set of construction documents and drawings. This involves detailing wall information and creating schedules that adhere to the necessary Australian standards using Revit.
A group of three students proposed an alternative facade design for the eastern side, aiming to establish a connection between the past and present by drawing inspiration from the surrounding contextual heritage, particularly the Old Government House building constructed of sandstone.
The structure itself draws inspiration from an icosahedron, with materials strategically oriented. Polycarbonate and glass were selected for their transparency, allowing natural light to penetrate the interior. Sandstone was also utilized alternately to mitigate unwanted sun exposure in the concourse area.

08 COMMUNITY HOSPITAL
The project aimed to depart from the typical monotonous design of hospitals, instead focusing on creating spaces that promote well-being and have a soothing effect. I was actively involved in Phase 2 of the construction process and contributed to the design of exterior spaces in addition to occupancy considerations.
The tall volumes of common areas were strategically designed to facilitate visual connectivity across all levels and to allow natural light to permeate the space. Additionally, the curved wall at the entrance serves as a welcoming element, inviting and easing the flow of occupants into the facility.
My role encompassed drafting and design documentation, assisting the project team with on-site progress, and coordinating weekly site meetings.

professional project
The residence serves as a serene retreat for a small family, emphasizing connectivity with the surrounding environment. Its design embodies minimalism, prioritizing well-ventilated spaces while showcasing integrated craftsmanship that enhances visual appeal.
A narrow pathway, adorned with pergolas and paved with rugged granite stones, guides one through the property. The interplay of stone pergolas, granite-clad walls, and unfinished epoxy-finished flooring creates an intimate ambiance.
The interior spaces are thoughtfully connected to green courtyards and lush gardens. French doors open up to water features and pergolas constructed from exposed concrete, providing a captivating visual experience that seamlessly connects the home to the sea and sky beyond.

Gabion walls and bamboo pergolas introduce a sense of strength and character to the design, while the concrete flooring and stone walls contribute to the rustic aesthetics that delight the senses. The pergolas themselves are paved with natural granite stones, further enhancing the natural and tactile aspects of the design.
