Merri Creek without disturbing the

ecosystem.

Combined Idea

PROJECT INTRODUCTION

To design a panelized structure from the grasshopper techniques – geometry, and tessellation and panelization, that we have both explored in Part B.A flexible U-shaped panelized structure is aiming to achieve in the project, which the structure can be expanded or dormant horizontally and vertically, depending on the water level and the amount of rubbish.
