Southgate Podium
The Southgate project involved re-imagining the podium structure and waterfront interface of a significant shopping centre, office and hotel development directly adjacent to the Melbourne Arts Precinct and opposite downtown and the iconic Flinders Street Station.
It was a short project led by director Craig Becconsall with diagrams and document design by me. Below is a concept diagram produced for the project (see further for analysis and existing podium design).
Below: existing podium and waterfront configuration.
Below: new podium, circulation and waterfront configuration proposed by the Urbis team. Concept by Craig Becconsall, diagram by me.
Below: Rapid photo-manipulation to show opening-up of the waterfront with terraced seating. Not my finest work, but an exercise that hopefully demonstrated the point well enough.
