Project Brief: Investigate different types of hybrid buildings- platforms and their platformability. Their spatial, typological and morphological characteristics and, programmatic, technical and artistic expressions. Creating language on how to represent it in architecture and urban design was intended. Urban Context South Melbourne Tram Depot. Rich with history of the very first train lines connecting Port Melbourne and the city, the urban strategy was to recreate a focus on the ‘in-between’ spaces of daily life. So what lies for this quaint suburb of Port Melbourne between now and the future? A more pedestrian friendly environment was designed together with a gradual change of density throughout the 1.75km long reserve.

Project: The Melbourne City Rail Museum acts as one program attached to a central island tram stop platform. One end facing Port Melbourne; the origin and the starting block, and the other end facing the Melbourne CBD that portrays how far the rail system has come. The past can be explored but never changed- the language of how the project shows how it is not a road block but more smooth and continuous , It is the future that the world is interested in- the journey is ongoing. That is the beauty of incompleteness.
