ARCH1301 - Architectural Design Studio 5
2009
Session 1
ARCH1301
Architectural Design Studio 5
Integrated Design: Architecture as Evidence
Course Convenor / Lecturer: Steven King
Studio Tutor: Alain Assoum
The Project:
"This project is the design of a modest multi-residential, mixed use building, as set out in the detailed brief. It must be a ‘realistic’, technically competent design. The structure of the project approximates a comprehensive compliance framework similar to the preparation of a development application submitted to a local government authority for planning approval. As such, it will require you to be attentive to rule based analysis, evaluation and reporting within the design process. The setting for the project is urban Sydney, and the relevant controls emphasized are State Environmental Planning Policy 65and the Residential Flat Design Code, the applicable Development Control Plans, and the BASIX sustainability rating tool."

Design Submission - Final
Coogee Beach Community Centre
Public Space in a Sydney Suburb
Site
The site is located next to the Coogee Oval where both are framed by Arden Street to the east, Brook Street to the west, Dolphin Street to the North and Alfreda Street to the south.
Design Concept
For deriving a scheme from the 5 themes, I chose Threshold and Infrastructure.
I chose Threshold as a theme as I felt that the beach was mainly the focus of the suburb. This is because people outside of the Coogee community mostly came to Coogee to experience the beach lifestyle there.
I also chose Infrastructure as my other main theme. I found that the beach serves as a particular function (eg activities, fun and games, sports etc.) and things are built revolving around this particular functional area/space.
Through interpreting these themes, I wanted to create a building that would alter the Threhold of the coastline or the rock "walls/cliffs" that surround and boundary the beach of Coogee. I also wanted to create a building which would reflect the community from within.
