Residence facade detail 1:10

Studio project. This is a detail putting together all of my material research, the facade tiles are made up of reclaimed materials and so are the earth-Crete, pointed arch, key stone pieces. The detail is designed to minimise water coming into the house and also to stop damaging the earth-crete, due to its porosity. Drawn by hand, light ink wash, water colour and pastels.

Quick digital drawing of a landscape design I did last night for a regenerative house project. I designed the veggie patches in a half moon shape to capture water, the creek/wetland cools the area and works as a filter for the grey water. The out door barbecue is fueled by methane gas produced by a bio bladder, which works by processing food waste with hydrochloric acid, giving off methane and fertiliser. It took under 2 hours to draw.

Raw earth experiments.

Iā€™ve been ambitious recently and Iā€™ve collected the sites soil and tested various binders to create an ā€˜earthcreteā€™. It was successful. Iā€™ve created tiles for external cladding, bathrooms and material for the larger buildings.

Studio concept

This isnā€™t a final drawing at all, itā€™s just me drawing my thoughts out and to see what the connection is between my physical expression compared to what I had in mind. Re-used church windows and cream brick shingles.

Eko Deck in Frankston.

Completed this a while ago, implemented some sick details that worked out very well. Mitres were upon customers request, they were biscuit joined with some 2C. Pretty large deck considering I had to smash it out before Chrissy on my own, but I was very chuffed. Also made a fascia board from scratch as buying a piece wouldā€™ve been expensive for how much I needed. All the joist were painted with bitumen (usually thatā€™s enough) and also joist tape over the top. Zero bounce and will last a very very long time.
