BRICKERTIES
Supervisor: Brent Allpress
The population of Fishermans bend’s new district will reach 80,000 in 2050. As an old industrial area in Victoria, a large number of new immigrants will flood into this area. How these new residents and employees adapt to the new environment has become a big challenge. BRICKERTIES as a new cultural center.
Here, residents can create their ideal social space by assembling movable prefabricated walls, platforms and floors. Visitors can also participate in entertainment activities or parties there. It will become an environment that constantly interacts with society..
BRICKERTIES assembles digital wood blocks in real-time through digital models. The connecting ports are prefabricated in the building blocks first, and they are assembled together to form a strong structure through a connection method similar to the Japanese traditional joint. All of this will be controlled by a parameterized model. Compared with traditional buildings, they will be more environmentally friendly when replaced and demolished.
