UNIVERSITY OF MELBOURNE LIFE SCIENCES PRECINCT

University of Melbourne Life Sciences Precinct
Interior Designers: HASSELL
Area: 10250 m2
Year: 2019

The University of Melbourne will prepare the next generation of vets,
scientists and doctors in an innovative new life sciences precinct that will
further the university’s international reputation for excellence. The HASSELL-
designed precinct brings together three faculties into an active, flexible
learning environment to accommodate the variety within the life
sciences.

Year: 2020

In Stains (Seine-Saint-Denis), near Paris, the site was exemplary of the franchised
city made up of hangars and warehouses, often regarded as disparaging urban
elements. The project led by WOA (Wood Oriented Architecture), with
architectural and urban as well as social and societal objectives,
transformed a neglected parcel of land into a dynamic living space.

DESIGN NARRATIVE

Creating a physical space in Kampong Bharu to attract the community and tourists to give a PAUSE in Kampong Bharu. To see and feel the
beauty of culture, authenticity, and identity of Kampong Bharu. A place created to gather and celebrate or discuss the culture and history
in Kampong Bharu.
Through that, community and tourists tend to PAUSE on-site, and activities is going on. This helps enhance the economy of Kampong Bharu.
