What will the future look like? How will we be Living? Working? Building? Eating? Consuming? From places, people and produce the AA Visiting School Melbourne focuses it’s lens on the State of Victoria, we speculate beyond the restrictions of yesterday to unleash the potential of creative visions of tomorrow. The subject is an intensive 2-week Laboratory hosted at the Melbourne School of Design each year where we re-imagine what Victoria will look and feel like. It introduces students to contemporary digital design techniques, toolsets, workflows and frameworks. We undertake deep local research, immersive analysis and intensive design sessions to produce a collection of inspiring work that explores how living, mobility, energy, material and food can be re-imagined in creative and unique ways; from autonomous infrastructures, territorial landscapes, robotic fabrication, crypto banks, hydro powered carbon extractors, circular urban farms to a city to house 22 million - it is a test-bed for the future. Instead of policies we seek artistic visions or propositions to highlight important catalysts for fundamental change that are radically shaping our notions of life. We zoom into architecture through the lenses of today’s culture and share our visions of what is to come next. Project Toria sets out to explore the realms where Architecture is a vehicle for thinking. We bring a diversity of people, professions and thinkers that discuss, debate and visually inspire what lies ahead.

In her work as a Visual Designer, she likes to explore the edges of the brand she’s working with. She believes that crafting an engaging identity is all about refining and communicating the story behind it, in a way that resonates with a niche audience. Lucinda uses an array of mediums, including animation, photography, set design, UI and illustration, to weave together these threads. She feels that a good narrative has lots of texture in it, is multilayered, and contains a touch of experimentation to explore the edges of a brand. Over the last few years her work has mostly been in the tech start up industry, and so she usually works in digital media. This means that outside of her work, she loves to get back to more analogue forms of creativity; working in textiles, clay and ink in her craft. Lucinda starts a project with a constraint–a tool, subject or form–to refine her focus and concentrate her creativity, without being overwhelmed by an unstructured project, with endless possibilities. Lucinda is very passionate about the connection between creativity and mental health, and mentors others in exploring this link in their own lives, and finding ways to thrive as creatives in the commercial industries. -︎︎︎ <img width="3024" height="3024" width_o="3024" height_o="3024" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ec15ec69e95873818a8063b22960742541eba178001b15d7d7cca96a7214bc6b/Beth.jpg" data-mid="167204923" border="0" data-scale="25" data-no-zoom src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ec15ec69e95873818a8063b22960742541eba178001b15d7d7cca96a7214bc6b/Beth.jpg" /> Bethany Edgoose(Inferstudio) Bethany is an editor, writer, and researcher.

Our First Nations Australians have used mud construction to construct dwellings in Victoria and Tasmania. The material is where we stand, inhabit and dwell. We build cities on it, sculpt it to shape infrastructure from roads to rivers, draw lines to define the land, go to war to gain territories, ritualise it as sacred, and bury our waste and our dead in it. Yet, we rarely build with it.&nbsp; ︎︎︎Brief Teaching Staff: Paul Loh&nbsp; (LLDS / PTM) David Leggett&nbsp; (LLDS / PTM) Yuhan (Psyche) Hou (LLDS / PTM) Students: April Lachal Baikun GaoHua Suen CheahYang Kaiyuan Shuaixian LiJia Wei Ng Lin Yuwei Wang Haotian Frank GuoTianyao Song Project:&nbsp; HEY HAYS Students:Shuaixian Li Hua Suen Cheah Jia Wei Ng Brief:Hey Hays intends to explore the properties of the rammed earth structure, and further find new potential in the texture and volume of the material, trying to provide a feasible method tobreak the boundaries of the rigid quality of the rammed earth for future design purposes. This project will be built in 2030, at the new Fishermans Bend campus of Melbourne University, within an industrial estate and surrounded by factories and companies. The unique site conditions pose challenges for applying conventional structures while allowing exploring the possibilities of the rammed earth construction and addressing our practice toward a carbon zero architecture.We started our project by developing the basic knowledge of the rammed earth structure, then tried new methods to affect the construction process and texture outcome in the perspective of material by using hays, and finally solidify the process using a robotic system to match with the real construction practice. All these three stages are developed based on the prototypes we test and design. With the experiences we learned, we propose a new construction sequence of the structure to create a more interesting texture and spacial quality of the rammed earth material. Hey Hays shows the potential of the texture of rammed earth structure and the further spacial experience it can provide. It also shows the possibilities of how robotic systems can provide a renewed agency through rammed earth construction, and help to address this practice toward carbon zero architecture. <img width="3187" height="4501" width_o="3187" height_o="4501" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/92c9ae7dfbaef3b337fb8f4b8b9360377b7bfac057b7224b0d0a22024a31fa6e/AAVS_Final_Presentation_HEYHAYS.jpg" data-mid="167287976" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/92c9ae7dfbaef3b337fb8f4b8b9360377b7bfac057b7224b0d0a22024a31fa6e/AAVS_Final_Presentation_HEYHAYS.jpg" /> <img width="8000" height="4500" width_o="8000" height_o="4500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/8bcdc4ce80b6f68cfc1e10b3b35b0ccc18dda16722b0d128b96b80c39ab8c717/page2.jpg" data-mid="167288369" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/8bcdc4ce80b6f68cfc1e10b3b35b0ccc18dda16722b0d128b96b80c39ab8c717/page2.jpg" /> <img width="4694" height="2640" width_o="4694" height_o="2640" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/fdb3efa5e25d9a396017d3ef08e602e08fc70fbf8b38122dc76acc61601e8928/page3.jpg" data-mid="167288370" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/fdb3efa5e25d9a396017d3ef08e602e08fc70fbf8b38122dc76acc61601e8928/page3.jpg" /> <img width="8747" height="4920" width_o="8747" height_o="4920" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/4540071f60bb593e5020517b84fd5e6a5cf441687e441ea11a2a10835d9d9a0d/page4.jpg" data-mid="167288371" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/4540071f60bb593e5020517b84fd5e6a5cf441687e441ea11a2a10835d9d9a0d/page4.jpg" /> <img width="4400" height="2520" width_o="4400" height_o="2520" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/2daa96c853105ac0f90ebd58471cd2e5e53d5d06c75be55366999e5f5b7d05dc/page5.jpg" data-mid="167288372" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/2daa96c853105ac0f90ebd58471cd2e5e53d5d06c75be55366999e5f5b7d05dc/page5.jpg" /> <img width="8000" height="4500" width_o="8000" height_o="4500" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/398186382b40afd7a5c26772f153e6aec5a9030ddd7011121ec4b7dc964ee478/page6.jpg" data-mid="167288373" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/398186382b40afd7a5c26772f153e6aec5a9030ddd7011121ec4b7dc964ee478/page6.jpg" /> <img width="2907" height="1635" width_o="2907" height_o="1635" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ce736e65e793d0ac6ada6a881a1448af33937826788fefda4c990f60c2d13713/page7.jpg" data-mid="167288374" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ce736e65e793d0ac6ada6a881a1448af33937826788fefda4c990f60c2d13713/page7.jpg" /> Additional projects: <img width="2000" height="1792" width_o="2000" height_o="1792" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/6168274f0037d37979e2e78f5625291e248f699927dc65565a5171b97e620ec4/1.jpg" data-mid="167300658" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/6168274f0037d37979e2e78f5625291e248f699927dc65565a5171b97e620ec4/1.jpg" /> <img width="1884" height="2688" width_o="1884" height_o="2688" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/bb9e5e8fc66ab68b4fd26bc18b588bc0d6df776cbaa63864948d77fa6fdad7ed/2.jpg" data-mid="167300660" border="0" data-scale="63" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/bb9e5e8fc66ab68b4fd26bc18b588bc0d6df776cbaa63864948d77fa6fdad7ed/2.jpg" /> <img width="2837" height="2434" width_o="2837" height_o="2434" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/db558a2829cecbd698b2e9ef318439d1f0086efbe23c59ba3de2108d48d3ff5c/2.5.jpg" data-mid="167300659" border="0" data-scale="100" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/db558a2829cecbd698b2e9ef318439d1f0086efbe23c59ba3de2108d48d3ff5c/2.5.jpg" /> <img width="2477" height="1388" width_o="2477" height_o="1388" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/25840a392e26b90968c38206e2f010b7838749b7db4d31456ad5199c66a9e046/3.jpg" data-mid="167300727" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/25840a392e26b90968c38206e2f010b7838749b7db4d31456ad5199c66a9e046/3.jpg" /> <img width="1141" height="655" width_o="1141" height_o="655" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/5e60df690dd6930055a2c677aaf29294ed70f05ae3b9bb20a4b7d6eed837f693/4.jpg" data-mid="167300663" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/5e60df690dd6930055a2c677aaf29294ed70f05ae3b9bb20a4b7d6eed837f693/4.jpg" /> <img width="4666" height="2454" width_o="4666" height_o="2454" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/801de25e42425b538212eeb99031ac0ac0afdfbe33a65242aff5c19df33b2c8f/4.5.jpg" data-mid="167300692" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/801de25e42425b538212eeb99031ac0ac0afdfbe33a65242aff5c19df33b2c8f/4.5.jpg" /> ︎ 2022 Project (Vic)Toria ︎ Next Unit
