C.1. DESIGN CONCEPTPART C: DETAILED DESIGN
A design of a pavilion or a form which establish a stronger connection between human and nature environment on the site, where visitors interact with the surrounding environment
and acknowledge it.
THIS PART FOCUSES ON THE DEVELOPMENT OF A REALISTIC AND YET INNOVATIVE DESIGN PROPOSAL.
THE OUTCOME OF THIS STAGE IS A FULLY DOCUMENTED AND CONVINCINGLY ARGUED DESIGN THAT IS CRITICALLY POSITIONED IN CONTEMPORARY
ARCHITECTURAL DISCOURSE.
After site analysis, a problem was found on the site that the visitors just walk pass the site without enjoying the beautiful nature environment. Therefore, this project will focus on a design of a pavilion or a tunnel which establishes a stronger connection between human and nature environment on the site, where visitors interact with the surrounding environment and acknowledge it. From development of Part B, Field technique in Grasshopper is best to represent the trees and branches in biomimicry as well as tessellation. Therefore, this is the main technique used to fully develop this project. This technique can be developed using lines and points so series of points and lines will be extracted from the analysis of the site. The main effect of this project is catching users’ attention through its form as well as lighting effect from beautiful shapes
of trees when the sunlight pass through a layer of trees (growth along the structure of the fields). Also, the form of the project can merged into the landscape overtime and be part of the surrounding environment if trees and plants are allowed to grow along the fields.

SITE ANALYSIS
In order to establish a stronger relationship between human and surrounding nature environment at the site, it is important to analysis carefully the possible stakeholders of the site and
their activities to catch their attention.
Through the analysis, data shows that the site is a large green area with trees and the Merri Creek run across. The environment of the site is combination of three large park, Phillips Reserve, Merri Park, Summer Park. Most of people visit the site are from the local area. However, not many people access the parks within the area, most people just run or cycling through the main trail. I asked some people on the site to see how they feel about the site, a few people said because there is a power station which block the view and there is nothing special on the site for them to stop and pay attention to surrounding landscape. Therefore, a pavilion represents the landscape should be built on site to evoke visitors’ curiosity to slow down and pay attention to the surrounding landscape.

The chosen area was analysis to highlight where the green and non-green area on the site.
FOCUSING ON FIELD PATTERNS
FIELD PATTERN CAN EXPLORE A BEAUTIFUL FORM WHICH ABSTRACTS VISITORS’ ATTENTION WHILE ON THE SITE. ALSO, THE FIELD PATTERN REPRESENT THE ROOTS OF TREES IT WILL BE INTALL ON THE SITE AND TREES ARE
ALLOWED TO GROW ALONG IT, OVERTIME THE PAVILION WILL BECOME PART OF THE SITE.
In BIOTHING-FIELD explored by trans-coding 3 different algorithms. Electro-Magnetic Field developed through Biothing’s custom written plug-in for Rhino was initially distributed in order to develop structural trajectories for the roof condition. Resonating pattern was imprinted into the ground creating emitters for the second algorithmic logic _ radial wave interference pattern that formed global geography of the field. Finally, class 4 Cellular Automata was used to re-process wave data by imprinting micro-articulation of the ground. Zooming in and out of this field revels drifts in the character of the pattern. This effect is accelerated in the behavior of the CA pattern which drifts between distinct characters of rigid geometrical states and more organic states.

MATERIAL AND EFFECT INSPIRATION
INNOVATION: MOLD TREES IN A PARTICULAR WAY.
After research on how trees can be molded into different shapes and become a sculpture in art. I found this idea is interesting to explore in my project as it is a way I can establish a relationship between the site and user. Therefore, I want to create a tree pavilion which can create a similar effect to the image. The pavilion can be turn into a series of tunnel with interesting lighting effect. This evolve a calm feeling for users while they are walking pass the pavilion. At the same time, this pavilion can be used for many other activities such as:• Observing • Learning • Contemplating • Exercising • Walking • Running • Cycling
FIELD PATTERN WAS CHOSEN BECAUSE IT CAN GENERATE A BEAUTIFUL FORM WHICH ABSTRACTS VISITORS’
ATTENTION

FIELD PATTERNS DEVELOPMENT
In order to re-image the relationship between human and the nature environment, I tried to derive the field pattern from lines
of the housing around this area. However, it is complex and also it does not develop enough connection between the site
and the visitor. It cannot establish the relationship between human and nature environment.

RETHINK - FINAL FIELD PATTERN
After rethinking about regenerate a more simple form for the final pavilion form, another analysis is explored to show how many way visitor can access the site, as the field can create many possible ways for user to enter each of the field pattern. The main trail is where people interact most on the site. Therefore, I want to use this as a base to generate field over the top, as I want to generate a BEAUTIFUL FORM where it can ABSTRACTS most of VISITORS’ ATTENTION. The analysis showed 11 ways visitors can access the site so the field is also generated with 11 lines. This final pattern is suitable to the concept and less complex to build in real life.

SPIN CHARGES NORMAL CHARGES
Both form of field patterns are generated as the field pattern need grid to interlock with each other and it can be built in real life. Also the lines can be connected to each other at the end of the lines. If only one pattern is used there is nothing to hold them together and it will flow in space without any supporting.
FORM FINDING METHOD
After analysis, the green area as the base of the form. Kangaroo is the technique for form finding as it can apply force onto a surface and create a structure using anchor points. It will apply force onto the surface while the anchor points will remain stable this can generate many possible form for the pavilion. The aim of this form finding is exploring a mini version of the whole green area to let visitors acknowledge the three main parks of the site. Therefore, three main parks areas have to stand out from the form, and the anchor points are 11 ways visitors can access the site to create the same flowing of visitors through the site.

1. The main green area of the site as the base of the form2. Vertices are explore from the surface3. 11 ways people can access and run through the site are 11 anchor points of the kangaroos definition.4. 3 points of the three main parks need to be highlight within the form so more force is applied to create greater bending within these 3 points

SITE RE-SELECTION
After finishing the form finding, I realized the form is too big and it is not possible to build in real life with massive scale. Therefore, I re-select the area where I want to place my pavilion. The site highlighted that the middle of the trail where it connect with the bridge is where most people access as people cross the bridge to access the main trail and all directions of accessibility come to the middle point. This is the best location to place my pavilion as it can abstract most of people access the site.

FABRICATIION FIELD
In the fabrication process a problem explore as the field cannot hold itself up so a base structure need to be constructed to hold up the field.

Overtime, trees will grow along the structure and the pavilion will become part of the site.
