RMIT Master of Design, Innovation and Technology and Master of Landscape Architecture in collaboration with partners/clients from Hansen Partnership, investigate the identity through the theories of ‘Place and Placelessness’ (Edward Relph) through the methods of digital acquisition, generation and fabrication techniques in a 6-week long studio intensive.
The studio explores how existing public realm spaces may accommodate addition ‘surfaces’ in the form of a smartSKIN. The smartSKIN might manifest itself as a playground, additive vertical green wall structure or interface between streets and buildings or ways to improve existing public realm.this studio delivers design proposals through 1) acquisition and analysis, 2) design proposal and 3) fabrication.
