One of these was to engage students in design competitions in order to test capabilities within a wider forum than the program itself. The very first project for commencing students in 2010 was an open competition for a memorial design for Australian service personnel of Chinese heritage,which Sarah Batchelor won. She later oversaw the construction and installation of her design and it’s unveiling by Australia’s Prime Minister Julia Gillard. Every year since has seen a number of undergraduate students win awards in national and international design competitions as well as having research papers accepted at preeminent academic conferences. Architecture at Griffith quickly established as one of Australia’s programs to watch for regular announcements of student achievements. Adding to the celebration of accomplishments are prizes for top students generously provided by architectural firms and businesses. Students now have a positive inheritance of success to look forward and live up to. This confident culture is greatly enhanced by the many students who volunteer as representatives on committees, as peer mentors and in activating networks and the student club “GAS” Griffith Architecture Society. Another objective established in 2010 was to celebrate success. Thus this publication focuses on the achievements of select individuals and groups produced in 2014, the first year in which all five year groups are in attendance at Griffith University. Professor Gordon Holden Founding Architecture Discipline Head We would like to thank Masters student Jessica Harris for initiating and guiding this project and third year students David Lovell, Sasha Wales and Matthew Boyle for production and assistance during the process. 02 GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ARCHITECTURAL STUDENT WORKS CATALOG 2014 2014 STUDENT GROUPS Griffith Architecture Society (GAS) 2014 Club Executives President: David Lovell Secretary: Kate De Pina Treasurer: Cody Mason The Griffith Architecture Society is the architecture programs base student group with a focus on internal networking within and across all year levels. To achieve the club’s aspirations low scale, events are operated and include bare foot bowls, trivia nights and end of semester gatherings. More formal occasions include the end of year exhibitions and at times larger scale social and networking events that are run in conjunction with SONA. The clubs objectives are to enhance the cultural, social and educational experience of the architecture program by creating an inclusive environment in which students can be involved and feel akin with their peers. David Lovell GAS President 03 GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ARCHITECTURAL STUDENT WORKS CATALOG 2014 Student Organised Network for Architecture (SONA) The Student Organised Network for Architecture (SONA) is the official student body of the Australian Institute of Architects. We represent architecture students from across Australia, organising national, state and local events that provide opportunities for students to collaborate with each other as well as architects and associated professionals. SONA members take part in the annual Australian Institute of Architects architecture conference, the biannual student congress, local mentoring and social events, design competitions, professional committees, and receive and contribute to nationallyrecognised architecture publications. This year, the Griffith SONA committee hosted the annual Queensland One:One event, the event was a fast paced design and build collaboration. With a set brief, teams had one day to design and construct a built response to the brief at the scale of One:One. A broad cross section of individuals gathered for this event from tradies to academics to working practitioners and students and upon completion, the project site was opened to the public for a fantastic networking and social event.

There are four projects that all engage with concepts of place: Three Design Projects each of 4 weeks duration and a fourth project that is a semester-long design diary containing notes and sketches and two short articles related to field studies of buildings, landscapes and architectural practices. 05 Nicklaus Browne GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ARCHITECTURAL STUDENT WORKS CATALOG 2014 Warwick Freeman Sophie Hjertqvist 06 GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ARCHITECTURAL STUDENT WORKS CATALOG 2014 1900 STUDIO 1 Dr. Alexandra Brown Sessional Staff: Marty Bignell Kali Marnane Laura McConaghy Morgan Jenkins Nic Brand The studio builds on knowledge and skills developed in Semester 1, focusing on human and cultural issues, exploring architectural design in environmental context from the user’s perspective. The course asks students to engage with a clear project brief and a series of pragmatic considerations, while considering interactions between inhabitants and structures as part of conceptual design. Included is an architectural communication component focused on development of drawing and model making skills; group and individual tutorials and site visits. 07 Sam Merrett GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ARCHITECTURAL STUDENT WORKS CATALOG 2014 Sophie Hjertqvist 08 GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ARCHITECTURAL STUDENT WORKS CATALOG 2014 Lauren Smith 09 GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ARCHITECTURAL STUDENT WORKS CATALOG 2014 Masterplan Masterplan ContoursContours Section 1:100 1:100 Warwick Freeman 10 andAnalysis Sun Site Analysis Noise andNoise Sun Site GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ARCHITECTURAL STUDENT WORKS CATALOG 2014 Warwick Freeman S2951064 Warwick Freeman S2951064 2901 STUDIO 2 Dr. Wouter Van Acker Sessional Staff: Alex Cohn Lisa Mercer David Hanson Shane Thompson Peter Edwards Mahsa Farougi Architecture Studio 2 builds on the studio practices, knowledge and activities introduced in first year. Projects have an urban and environmental focus – integrating knowledge gained in the concurrent courses “History, Theory, Methods of Urban Design and ‘Australian Cities’. There are three projects – two focusing on urban design with group work aspects and one individual architectural project related to the earlier urban projects. For the first assignment (NO) STOP CITY students were asked to work in pairs and design a model of a suburb or residential area, which reacts on the condition of sprawl and the models of NoStop City made by Archizoom. Like the models of No-Stop City made by Archizoom, students were asked to make five photographs of their model positioned in a mirrored cube. Students invented their own urban landscape (site) and took five photographs of the model positioned in a mirrored cube (non-site). When all models were put together, they formed a model of a city district of 20,000 inhabitants. 11 Kate De Pina & Nathan Kriis Erin Fanning, Courtney Villegas, Jeremy Wass & Stina Gustafsson GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ARCHITECTURAL STUDENT WORKS CATALOG 2014 Lynne O’Hehir & Elizabeta Misevski Mark Blyde & Peter Reilly Demitrya Frangos & Bryce Schurman Jason Palmer & Sasha Steindl 12 GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ARCHITECTURAL STUDENT WORKS CATALOG 2014 Bryce Schurmann 13 GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ARCHITECTURAL STUDENT WORKS CATALOG 2014 Demitrya Frangos 14 GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ARCHITECTURAL STUDENT WORKS CATALOG 2014 2902 STUDIO 3 Dr. Henry Skates Sessional Staff: Rob Norman Nicolo Del Castilo Katie McColl This studio focuses on sustainable construction, materials, water-use and energy performance. It explores designs for environmental low impact, accounting for weather conditions and carbon in materials. It integrates knowledge developed from ‘Principles of Sustainable Design’ and from ‘Construction Materials and Practices’. Over 10 weeks there are short design esquisse exercises presented through different media all aligned to the weekly subject matter, that reinforce learning objectives and develop skills. This work is presented in the end-of-semester portfolio. In 2014 student Rory Pope won the ‘Nine Dots’ design competition and Kate De Pina was commended.

Prof Karine Dupre The goal of this special topic was to explore the characteristics of Japanese culture through architecture, urban and landscape developments. The questions of contemporary practice for heritage areas and buildings were addressed during the one-week design studio developed in partnership with the Akashi National College of Technology. The course included a compulsory one-day intensive workshop on Japanese culture, the field trip (Tokyo- Kyoto- OsakaAkashi), the design studio and student journals. Besides discovering another culture, students built skills in alternative methodologies for site analysis, design development and communication. These skills can be applied to professional practice. 19 GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ARCHITECTURAL STUDENT WORKS CATALOG 2014 20 GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ARCHITECTURAL STUDENT WORKS CATALOG 2014 3901 STUDIO 4 Assoc. Prof Karine Dupre Sessional Staff: Peter Roy The second design project for Architecture Studio 4 was to design a ‘Green’ bridge for pedestrians and bicycles across nominated waterways at the Gold Coast. This project attracted a $1500 award from the French Embassy in Australia to assist the winning student to travel to the INSA Architecture School in Strasbourg, France, to participate in a Gold Coast Green Bridge exhibition, with work displayed from Griffith students and INSA students. Miyuki Suzuki won the competition.

The studio adopts a practice culture. Students are offered a choice of three project scales for the semester: Bio-regional; Urban; Suburban. Each project explores sustainable environments to deliver potentially ‘real’ outcomes. Studio outcomes are to deliver initial brief and concept design, design for development application and finally developed design for building application. Students simultaneously explored their designs in the courses: ‘Advanced Environmental Studies’ and ‘Advanced Integrated Technologies’. Consultants attended to inform design development. Building performance and comfort conditions of were tested during design development through sophisticated simulation software. 35 Jordan Pope GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ARCHITECTURAL STUDENT WORKS CATALOG 2014 36 Darcy Harrison GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ARCHITECTURAL STUDENT WORKS CATALOG 2014 Dylan McLaughlin 37 GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ARCHITECTURAL STUDENT WORKS CATALOG 2014 Joshua Watson 38 GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ARCHITECTURAL STUDENT WORKS CATALOG 2014 7602 STUDIO 2 Parked Architecture and Bon Appetit Food Court Assoc. Prof Karine Dupre Sessional Staff: Teresa Wuersching This advanced studio course builds upon the knowledge, skills and abilities achieved in a pathway undergraduate degree in architecture as well as from Advanced Studio 1. It focuses on the integration of ideas, practice matters and technologies to generate workable architecture. It amalgamates knowledge from Contemporary Architecture and Professional Practice. There are two projects of equal weighting. The first project addressed the design improvement of spaces adjacent to the Gold Coast City’s light rail system. It called for assessment, innovation, and testing of architectural and landscape ideas using timber. Site analysis and site models involved group work upon which individual design proposals were presented. The second project required the master planning of an avant-garde healthconscious food court adjacent to the Gold Coast rail system. It called for a 39 ‘pecha kucha’ presentation of client profile and architectural interpretation followed by a video presentation of conceptual approach and finally graphical communication of developed design submission. Lectures each week extend architectural critical knowledge and support the design projects.

ABSTRACT This work presents a discussion about the role of the breeze block within contemporary architectural history. The content focuses on the period of popular use from the late 1950’s to the early 1970’s, and highlights the work of architects within South East Queensland who utilised breeze block. Archival and historical research established that breeze block had been blocked out from scholarly record, but that many reputable architects employed their use as climate regulators in civic scale buildings. The breeze block was an immensely popular product during the early 1960’s, and was used extensively in the United States and in Australia. In the United States, its use was concentrated across the Californian regions, especially celebrated in Palm Springs. In Australia the breeze block experienced unprecedented popularity in commercial applications and with homemakers desperate to individualise their homes. It exploded onto the DIY scene with concrete manufacturers and women’s interest magazines alike promoting the decorative and functional benefits of breeze block within the home. Despite enjoying immense popularity and use, the breeze block is absent from academic literary record, and features only within limited popular culture works or building construction text books. This absence could somewhat be explained by a stigma attached to the breeze block from its inception. The development of this stigma may have been influenced by early preconceptions held about concrete, decoration in a time of unornamented modernism, and mass use of breeze block in the domestic realm. In South East Queensland at the turn of the decade, architects Stephen Trotter, Joop van den Broek, David Bell and Eric Trewern were designing buildings with breeze block on a civic scale. These buildings form an important part of Australian contemporary architectural history that is largely untold. A renewed interest in the modern era, and the ever-present threat of redevelopment, emphasises the need for a re-evaluation of the breeze block, and recognition of its role within contemporary architectural history. 47 Kalimna University of Melbourne Department of Architecture, Cross Section, no. 127 (1 May 1963): 2 GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ARCHITECTURAL STUDENT WORKS CATALOG 2014 Jessica Harris Taboo, Pneumatics and Punks: The Complexities of Architectural Experimentation in Brisbane and the University of Queensland: 1972-1980. ABSTRACT From the late 1960s, amidst the turmoil of wider global discontent, the discipline of architecture and its institutions experienced an intense period of social and political engagement. Students and staff involved with the Department of Architecture at the University of Queensland in Brisbane reacted against the global conditions of the time as well as Brisbane’s own unique socio-political landscape typified by the controversial State Government regime. The University of Queensland’s reactionary architecture activities were diverse and complex. This dissertation traces three groupings of architectural experimentation at the University of Queensland between 1972 and 1980; firstly, an avant-garde and conceptual art influence, followed by a direction toward environmentalist practices and thought process, and finally the onset of a punk attitude amongst certain students of architecture in Brisbane. Countercultural architecture therefore consisted of diverse experimentation and often contradictory influences, as students experimented with various creative modes of political expression. The time period 1972-1980 saw Brisbane’s architecture students involved with an array of activities from conceptual art experiments, to inflatable dome building, double-decker bus appropriation and punk DIY activities. Tracing these diversities not only tells us of the complexities of countercultural architecture but also demonstrates the perceived limitations of traditional forms of architecture and architectural education, as each form of experimentation is outside of the conventional boundaries of the discipline. In this way, the dissertation tells a story of institutional critique, the outcome of which signalled an inward turn for the profession. Ultimately, a more developed understanding of certain transformations of the architecture discipline during the late twentieth century begins to emerge. 48 Mobile Design Research Unit Bus.

ABSTRACT This research paper explores the role of Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC) timber fabrication techniques to assist in providing site responsive sustainable architecture through variation of building elements within prefabrication. Prefabrication is a lean, sustainable building construction method proven to reduce the impact of building development on our natural site and ecology. However its downfall has proven to be an inability to provide sufficient variation to create architecture that responds to site typology, ecology, vernacular and human users. This has resulted in negative connotations towards prefabrication and hence the predominance of traditional construction methods, even when proven less efficient and with greater impact on our ecology. Computer Numerically Controlled (CNC) digital timber fabrication technology can assist in providing variation within prefabrication by the mass customization of architectural components. With this digital technology there is the opportunity to develop new building systems, design language and forms that are able to deliver architecture that can adapt and change in response to individual site, ecology, vernacular and human user. Use of a responsive design language within prefabricated buildings or components therefore assists in overcoming the existing mass-produced prefabrication aesthetic. This study proposes that with a greater acceptance and use of prefabrication techniques within the built environment we also create a more sustainable construction model, lessening the impact on our ecology. We can conclude from literature, case study investigation and survey results of industry professionals that the practice of the mundane mass produced style of prefabrication can now be advanced because of technology. The market calls for customization and individual options and would respond to numerous solutions allowing for interchangeable components such as can be provided with the use of digital CNC timber fabricating technologies. Current contemporary examples and future opportunities of a responsive design language within prefabrication, enabled by CNC mass customization, are presented and categorized. CNC mass customization assists in the reintroduction of variation and responsive forms within prefabrication. Through the greater acceptance of prefabrication, sustainable construction practices are implemented over more traditional building methods and therefore have the ability to reduce the impact on our ecology. 49 GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ARCHITECTURAL STUDENT WORKS CATALOG 2014 Janelle Campbell Closing the Gap: Architecture and Aboriginal Health. What role can architecture play in response to providing a culturally appropriate environment in aboriginal health facilities. ABSTRACT This dissertation explores the correlation between the architecture of Aboriginal health facilities and the affects built environment can generate as a result of Aboriginal patients possessing traditional cultural values. The research was undertaken with the aim of improving the way current Aboriginal health environments are designed and constructed by architects and clients. The research was undertaken by conducting an analysis and review of three Indigenous health clinics, each varying in size, location and funding model. This dissertation attempts disclose how the built environment can reflect the cultural values and identities of individuals, highlight social insecurities and forms of political dominance, all while rehashing the destructive events of colonial history which has lead to the restrictive barriers preventing traditional Aboriginal people from accessing culturally appropriate health care. The dissertation establishes that current Aboriginal health environments have cultural consequences when designed without the consultation and involvement of the Aboriginal community. Aboriginal health environments continue to absorb colonial influences, which suggest that the non-Aboriginal architects are applying their own cultural values into the design of Aboriginal health environments. The significance of this research suggests that the design of these health environments need to include a more inclusive participatory process, where by the outcomes of the architecture and the health facilities are representative of the Aboriginal community.
