INTRODUCTION
Architectural education commenced at the Gold Coast campus of Griffith University in 2010 and the program set
itself several high objectives. 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

2913 JAPAN TRIP
Assoc. 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.

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.

Architecture Studio 5 is the final studio
in the Bachelor of Architectural Design
degree and focuses on theories and ideas
to generate meaningful architecture that is
informed by architectural practice through
partnerships of groups of four students
with architectural offices.
The aim is that the work undertaken by
students will expand the work undertaken by
the practice and contribute to discussions
and development of ideas around project
themes. The students then used these
ideas to develop individual proposals for
each unique brief.

This advanced studio course mirrors
typical stages of an architectural project
from conception to building approval,
through integration of technical and
design knowledge. 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.

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.

Blocked Out: The Role of Breeze Block within Contemporary Architectural History in
South East Queensland from 1955 to 1970.
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.

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.

Site Responsive and Sustainable Prefabricated Architecture Assisted by: CNC Mass Customozation of Timber Elements.
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.

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.
