CONTENTS.

This project represents the use of a Art studio complying with the needs of the client in the city of Canberra, it houses rooms and a studio space with attention to light and there surroundings.

06

Bankstown Public was a school lacking innovation and design. This project showcases the connection between community and the surrounding areas to trasnform the city of Bankstown through the public infrastructure.

Picturesque studio. Bankstown public. Personal project.

Showcasing my skills by working with different companies advising design plans. Interior design, construction, client liason and construction documents.

Vertical Project.

The Vertical Project was created to house three families within the suburb of Westmead, NSW. The challenge was to design these terrace homes on council-owned land in front of existing properties.

Housing for one.

A continued lineage of the process of deconstruction, temporality, juxtaposing transparencies and raw structure. The design seeks to break the surface between the Tourist and the Purist with the introduction of a guest.

PICTURESQUE STUDIO

Year: 2020

Team: Brytan De Mattia

Type: Ideas

Role: Visualization and design

Status: Completed and revised

Picturesque / Adjective

1. (of a place or building) visually attractive, especially in a quaint or charming way. eg a picturesque cottage/village

Due to colder climates and harsher winds, The Canberra landscape taught its inhabitants resource efficiency and how to adapt to the specific context. Traditional baltic dwellings where isolated houses in the cradle of nature with the private, common areas, animals and barn residing under one roof. This mini

mised the heat loss and use of construction materials; as a result generations of families developed a strong community mentrality. The project aims to perpetuate the communal vision and Baltic lifestyle, as well as vernacular practices, in a contemporary manner.

In terms of building typology,the house use a traditional truss structrure with all the main functions under the roof. Therefore, the layout encourages interaction between guests, sharing knowledge, stories and insiprations. The building is formed of long spaces that provide expansive lake views across the beautiful exterior and beyond. The terrace extends itself into the landscape, creating a physical and visual connectionto the lake. The articulated facades provide high level niches for bird, bat and bee habitats, enriching visitors wildlife exeperience.

The building programme is flexible, open for modifications and imrpoved development strategies. The proposal saw through all spaces required in the brief under the same roof. The division of the house in half created two areas in terms of function: the residentrial area and workshop, which is a flexible double height space.

The interiors are luminous and warm - toned timber floors, wood panelling and an exposed truss structure. The fenestration was designed to frame the landscape and paintings.

where the guests can immerse themselves in the exeperience. The flexible truss structure makes the proposal economical and ecological. The painters workshop can be opened for the public as a space fpr art exhibitions and other workshops. Although designed for painters the structutre can be useds for any art and craft workshops or related events.

From the facde the light penetrates teh structurte from up high through the arched windows, bathing the interior with different northern and southern sunlight - Ideal for painting.

Sustainability

Building out of locally sourced wood ensures short and convenient transportaion and a good life cycle energy performance while supporting local and sustainable foresty economics.

Wood fibre insulation, natural ventilation, create a healthy interior climate. The proposal seeked to preserve and reutilise the foundations, as to not diturb the soil unnecessary.

Other features such as compact gemoetry, limited glass area, infrastructures such as recycling grey water contribute to this.

The strcuture is repeated, easy to make and fast to assemble, as such the local craftsmen or womencan be invol;ved in the construction.

Flexibility

The studio is a flexible double height space, ensuring both openness and intimacy. Private zones can be created with the help of movable furniture which sits on wheels and provides maximum versatilituy, flexibility and modularity.

Bankstown Public

Year: 2021

Team: Brytan De Mattia

Type: Year 2 Final

Role: Group Project with Emma Moore & Christian Hart

Status: Completed and revised

Designing an instrument through which to teach in different ways – not just a shelter, or a series of spaces and places, but a teaching instrument, a new educational pedagogy. The building is one of the instruments through which to teach – like the canopy of the bush as a learning tool. Guided by country, Salt Pan Creek and its lifeline – its flows providing for both sides through its core and bringing together clans along it, as the meeting place feeding both sides, a place where various crossings happened.

Reflecting on the flexibility of gathering – 2 scales – a mega structure and secondary structures, but within that flexible modules and learning spaces cascade the essence of the library and culture.

The cultural coincide redirects the proposed cultural trail, reinterpreting its functions within the structure to learn from the building and learn from the land. Generational learning an staggered staging is encouraged, the edges facilitating extra classroom use – an outdoor indoor relationship. 2 juxtaposing cultures transition together, through basic structure, from a more controlled learning environment (classrooms) to more flexible (the library). Playful circulation, streets and commons act as conceptual distributaries of the creek.

House For One + Guest

Year: 2020

Team: Brytan De Mattia

Type: Studio 2

Role: Visualization and design

Status: Completed and revised in 2023

Site - Lake Burley Griffin, Canberra, ACT, Australia

A deconstructed re-work, taking into consideration the client and using Le Corbusier’s 5 Points of Architecture through the means of raw structure, free program, circulation, form, juxtaposing materiality and the connection to the city. A hierarchy is formed between the occupant and the public, as the Tourist and the Purist, each with user centric circulation. The clients work follows the process of deconstructing and exposing raw elements, inverted, transparent and leaving a constant unfinished effect.

Concept Development

The house becomes a constant work in progress, the client always on the move, working as a constant exhibition of creativity and fluid movement, deconstructed as a process through structure, program, materiality and circulation - using Virgil’s idea of “1 idea and repetition to own it” - achieved by inverting beams, walls, glass and exposing scaffolding.

A continued lineage of the process of deconstruction, temporality, juxtaposing transparencies and raw structure. The extension seeks to break the surface between the Tourist and the Purist with the introduction of a guest and exploring form as a series of deconstructed pavilions - each with a sense of independence, connected in sequence and circulation. The guest’s extension is a forced intrusion to disrupt the fluidity and slow down the client in the process, an obstacle through inversion and circulation. It is a process of reconstructing the connection to the city – the extension forming a perspective through materiality as a metaphor for breaking the surface between the Tourist and Purist
