ABOUT THIS PORTFOLIO
This portfolio is an exploration into interior architectural strategy and visualisation. Through an investigation of the research and products of multiple projects a narative is established, which embodies and represents my design identity.
Each project, based on unique parameters and research avenues, takes on a life of its own. Unbounded by subjective OLPLWV�RI�VW\OH��WKH�GHVLJQ�LVVXHV�RI�HDFK�VSHFLȽF�SURMHFW�DUH�resolved through a process of problem solving and applying spatial awareness to answer the questions of the brief, before considering aesthetic features which results in more thoroughly developed schemes and varied visual outcomes.

A residence established within Sydney’s Royal Botannical Gardens to temporarily house live-in artists on a seasonal basis.
The premises is a semi-subterranean buildingdesigned to accomodate both living and working spaces, whilst still allowing RGB patrons to roamaround and on top of the building freely. The sight intends to be inspirational for both the artist and the public, embedded within beautiful surrounds.

A gateway to the beautiful Royal Botannical Gardens, ‘please walk on the grass’ is a building which acts as a junction between natural and man-made environments.
Inspired by a ‘rule’ instated by the RGB, the facility is required to be sympathetic to both environments, to forge a natural relationship between interior and exterior, and to ensure a seamless, dynamicpassage regardless of the patrons prevailing direction

A timber platform-like construct occupies what is otherwise a
very man-made space, dominated by three concrete
columns.
Practically, the space needs to introduce
patrons travelling through in four
directions, functioning as a unique focal
intersection between spaces and typologies

Wine Bar Project
The focus of th is project involved ut i l i s ing actual research information and gather ings to inform an inter ior s t rategy. The approach takes an explorat ion of the phys ics of wine, as a par t ic le and as a body, and relates i t to the contain ing architecture as i ts vessel .

STAGE 1
STAGE 2
RESEARCH was undertaken on the physics of wine and its interaction with the wine glass, exploring the meniscus, capillary action, and the fluid vs the robust.
22
DESIGN development
At a molecular level , some phys ical character is ts of wine with in a glass such as ‘capi l lar y act ion ’ , ‘ tears ’ and the ‘meniscus ’ demonstrate a non- l inear re lat ionship with the contain ing carcass.
In al l instancs the wine volume appears to cl imb the inner sur face of the glass to a degree, before fal l ing back down again as ‘ tears ’ .
The diagrams below through research engagement explore a dynamic re lat ionship between the swir l ing, gracefu l body of f lu id, i ts corre lat ion to the stat ic edge sur face, and the generat ion of posit ive and negative space with in one homogenous element.

VALUABLE RESEARCH OBSERVATIONS TO UNDERPIN DESIGN INNOVATION.

ECONOMY, AND THE CULTURE AND SCALE OF RELIGIOUS BUILDINGS,
FORMED THE BASIS OF THIS PARTICULAR APPROACH

THE EVOLUTION OF RESEARCH IN RELATION TO THE ‘KNOWLEDGE ECONOMY’ PRODUCED AN UNDERSTNADING OF THE FLOW OF
INFORMATION ACROSS THE GLOBE AND THE PROLIFERATION OF THIS INFORMATION INTO CONCENTRATED LOCATIONS. BASED ON
FINDINGS ON SCIENTIFIC COLLABORATIONS, TRADE PATHS, AND FACEBOOK CONNECTIVITY, IT CAN BE DEDUCED THAT INFORMATION
RESIDES IN A FEW DISTINCT LOCALITIES, CONNECTED BY THE ONE KNOWLEDGE ECONOMY.
IN THIS PROJECT IT IS CONCEPTUALISED AS THE
DESIGN ECONOMY

RESOLUTION RELIED UPON A CONCENTRATION OF ACTIVITY INTO THREE DIS-
TINCT LOCALITIES, THE EXPLORATORY ARCADE, DESIGN STUDIO, AND DESIGNERS RESI-

THE DESIGN RESOLUTION OF THE DESIGN ECON-OMY CAME THROUGH AN
INVESTIGATION OF FORM WITH REFERENCE TO THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SOLID
LOCALITIES AND A KIND OF ORGANIC VISUAL CONNECTING ELEMENT.
RELIGIOUS INFLUENCE - portal

TURING VARIOUS FRAMED ELEMENTS, EACH WITH FLAMBOYANT ARTISTIC DETAIL CONTAINED.

The site’s primary focus, based on thorough research, is to capitalise on the ethos of Bondi and Australia as an active, dynamic and enjoyable people. The design strategy began with the need to increase thoroughfare through the site, and as these initial experiments portray, for the building to open up and IXOȽOO�LWVǾ�LQWHQGHG�SXUSRVH�as a ‘conduit’, connecting Bondi Beach to the main promenade.

EThe Casal Performance Space functions as a performance training space, whilst simultaneously serving as a display for patrons mov-
ing through the Gallery. The venue also aims to assist with the local government issue of a shortage of performance venues available
in Sydney.

The material proposition of the Bondi
Motion Gallery is an interaction between the
neutral, archaic aesthetic of the extant
brickwork and extant forms, and a robust
application of intricate, vibrant elements. The aim
is to produce a unique kinetic spirit which
embodies the zest of Bondi and Greater
Sydney.
Bondi Motion Gallery is a proposition which retains the existing structure as a homage to its origins,
yet imposes a robust, contemporary

re-activating this location into a lively,
kinetic destination, showcasing a spectrum

Black powdercoat aluminium framing bring focus to objects of interest, while materials such as top grade composite leather and red gloss acrylic, normally used in adverse or sporting environments, combine with the traditional structures and surfaces to produce an eccentric spacial condition through unorthodox material applications.

The approach to detail presentation in the Bondi
Motion Gallery is through very intricate 3D visualisation. This is to ensure that a consistent
presentation style is maintained, in keeping with the dynamic,
robust project.
Similarly, the tactility applied to this project follows a robust, dynamic and intricate pallette of form, materiality and lighting, ZKLOVW�IXOȽOOLQJ�FHUWDLQ�IXQFWLRQV��
