	The Gippsland Performing Arts Centre is the centrepiece of the Latrobe Creative Precinct in the Victorian city of Traralgon and the country of the Gurnai / Kurnai. Katsieris Origami are Design Directors for the project having won the architectural competition together with our project partners, Jackson Architecture.The performing arts are a celebrated aspect of life in regional Australian cities with the ‘country hall / theatre’ typology occupying a special place in a town’s mythology. Our design sought to tap into the deep affinity for the performing arts in regional Australian life by combining a contemporary performance facility with more abstract ideas linked to specific place and memory.
A box of treesIn recognition of the region’s former history of timber manufacturing and large-scale timber structures, the design uses local timber to herald a new era of mass timber construction. The main foyer is the key expression of this idea where a set of tree-like, mass-timber columns support the foyer roof.

The mass-timber columns, each 8.5 metres high, 3.2 tonnes in weight, and manufactured using local Victorian Ash, are symbolic forms as much as they are primary structural supports. The set of trees allude to a lost history; a time in the late 19th and early 20th centuries when heroic timber structures, all constructed of local hardwoods, dotted the surrounding landscapes. Giant timber trestle bridges, tall viaducts, and steep-incline winch-tramways were built from the strong and durable timbers endemic to the area. With the decline of gold-mining, steam-driven rail, and other industries, these impressive structures gradually dissapeared through bushfire, neglect or dismantling. They became the lost and forgotten artefacts of a bygone era.
A box of red
In contrast to the field of abstract trees in the foyer, the auditorium space is its philosophical other; a direct material and spatial counterpoint. Where the foyer is defined by a cluster of trees with overlapping branches splintering space, the auditorium is a singular, clear-span volume. Its scale and rich, earth-red finishes heighten audience expectations and create a chromatically-charged, immersive effect.
A surrounding braid of folded wall panels sharpen the acoustic fidelity of the auditorium by promoting the dispersal of incident sound waves.

Transformation and public realmOur design also transformed buildings around the site to create a new external public realm; - the Latrobe Creative Precinct. Like acupuncture on an urban scale, specific parts of surrounding buildings were modified in such a way that a new public realm was formed of loose, multi-use external spaces. They include a cave-like informal performance space created from a modified section of the existing Library building, and a large-scale digital screen created from a re-composed side of the former performing arts centre buidling. Performances, festivals, markets, exhibitions, community events, moonlight cinema, and passive recreation all occur in the new new public zones created.Architecture can achieve so much more than the fact of its own presence. We hope that in some way, the design of this project captures the love for the performing arts, and community gathering, our regions hold dear. We also hope it heralds an emerging, sustainable, mass timber fabrication expertise in Victoria’s Latrobe Valley and Gippsland regions.

The
alluring romance of the moody eastern Victorian coastline drew our client to
purchase this site over twenty years ago.

Situated on a long sand
dune and fronting a thick blanket of ti-trees and coastal scrub, the design of this coastal house arose from environmental and topographic opportunities. A modest budget, the integration of mid-century fixtures and art works the client had
patiently gathered over the years, and an affinity for a Brutalist aesthetic were further elements to our brief.
From our first visit and field-notes, we experienced the coastal winds
and the sense of primal, elemental remove of this location. We saw these factors as opportunities for direct, robust massing with allusions to the rugged coastal cabins that originally dotted this remote part of the Victorian coast.


The resultant design is a 2-level house with a smaller footprint at ground level than the main upper level.
The form was designed to capture surrounding coastal scrub views and shaped to better draw cooling summer breezes into the interior. The upper
level volume is bi-sected by a thin stair void that acts as a chamber to a thermal pinwheel. In summer periods, cool air emenating from the polished concrete floor slab at ground level is drawn up and through the upper level by a thermal pinwheel effect. Casement window panels and louvres are strategically oriented to induce the thermal pinwheel effect by capturing even light breezes and maximise cross-ventilation draw through the house. 


The site is within a Bushfire Attack Level (BAL) rated area of 29. External
façade materials, roofing systems and details were developed to accord to BAL-29 requirements.
As a cost-saving measure, the structure of the house minimises the use of structural steel. The resultant braced
plywood, box-beam system allowed the maximum possible, structurally-strong building enclosure at the lowest possible construction cost.
Finishes
throughout are simple and durable, in keeping with the client’s requirements for honest, ‘no-bull’, direct materiality and the equally robust, ‘no-bull’ nature of
the location.

	Junction Place, Wodonga is one of Australia's largest urban redevelopment projects; it was also Katsieris Origami's first major urban design.

The city of Wodonga remains Victoria's fastest growing regional city. As well as planning for its expected future growth, we recognised a unique opportunity for this urban design to act as an agent of wider civic and cultural regeneration.The site of 108,000 m2 (10.8 Hectares) was a 'brownfield' site; the decommissioned original Wodonga Rail Station and rail maintenance yards located in the centre of the city.

Our urban design proposed a network of new streets, roads and public spaces linking existing urban fabric with newly created development parcels. Five new precincts, each with their distinct character, were created within the urban design.

We incorporated a major new pedestrian promenade along the former rail alignment and this linear public space connected a proposed new public square with the buildings of the former heritage rail precinct. Though we met opposition to this core idea, we successfully advocated for the retention of the rail buildings and wove them into the urban design as signature place-making elements. The iconic red-brick, Victorian-era structures subsequently became the first built transformations within the redevelopment and were renovated into much loved, vibrant hospitality venues with retained rail-industrial character.
 
We also sought to ensure that increased pedestrian movements passed a full range of commercial, retail and civic uses. To further support our aim of ensuring retail shops were visually prominent, the scale of new streets, roads and public spaces were designed to slow vehicles down as they passed through the development.

Future development parcels were also analysed to confirm their flexibility and adaptability for different commercial yields and uses.
 Construction of our Master Plan commenced in 2012 with the strategic re-alignment and widening of Elgin Boulevard followed by the new streets and roads. The construction of the new Junction Place public square and the new public promenade followed. The project continues to be built out according to our urban design and Master Plan.

Its been fascinating to follow the incremental urban changes over time and witness first-hand how citizens, and visitors have responded to this ever-evolving piece of Wodonga.

	Located in the inner-city Melbourne suburb of Yarraville, this modest, two-dwellings-on-a-lot development negotiates the complexities of a small site containing an existing heritage worker’s cottage. Our clients were a multi-genrational family seeking to live in their own houses but on the same site. Their brief to us was to completely refurbish and extend the existing cottage and construct a new, separate townhouse in the backyard.

The small backyard, combined with restrictive overlooking regulations, drove our design response. The motif of house-as-periscope was developed as an analogy; light and views would be captured up high and reflected down via mirror to the levels of habitation without impacting on the privacy of neighbouring residences.The cantilevered, ‘pinched-waist’ form of the new dwelling ensured it was tuned to maximise potential view, sun, and ventilation opportunities. Though compact, the 480 m2 site offered the potential for enticing city views and the periscope-like window treatments, wall-voids and reversed, ‘top-heavy’ massing allowed us to capture these.
A resultant calmness permeates the interior as the periscope windows promote the admission of diffuse, soft, white filtered light.
Bento space / slippage spaceOn such a compact site it was important to ensure the bento-like interior spaces felt larger and more spacious than their physical reality. Narrow, double-height voids created through the ‘slippage’ of upper and lower level geometries were designed to add a dimension of vertical flow through the main volume. Angled walls were introduced to further the sense of space extending out / or up / or around; space released beyond the confines of its physical boundaries.
Both dwellings are further spatially enlivened by a richly planted, pocket courtyard-garden established between them.
Battery / Solar
This project was also our first residential development to incorporate household lithium battery power storage in the designs.
6.4 kW/h household batteries are energised by 5.0 kW solar photovoltaic cell arrays installed on the roofs of both dwellings.
As well as achieving an annual reduction in carbon emissions of around 7,100 Kg/Co2 per dwelling, our clients report that since occupation, electric power bills for both dwellings have been minimal to non-existant.

	This project aimed to design a series of limited, low cost but high-value strategic interventions to an existing, 1970’s era functionally driven School of Biological Sciences building at Monash University’s Clayton campus.
There were three primary interventions: a new entrance and foyer to the building, a new student space in a disused undercroft, and a new garden deck to the rear of the building near a loading dock. Our brief: use design to convert a series of unfriendly existing spaces into welcomming, useable spaces.
Cinderella Space
From the outset, we were working with piecemeal offcuts of secondary, low utility space clinging to the periphery of an existing, unrelentingly linear building. Yet this linearity became a useful datum for our more shaped interventions placed around it. We began to see the latent value in the three off-cuts of poor space we had to work with; we began to conceive of the fragmented, poor-quality space as Cinderella space.
Entrance Foyer / Tree - A small tree in the vicinity of the new entrance was proposed to be removed to make way for the new entrance however the university accepted our proposal to retain the tree and form a new entry around it. The new entry therefore became one informed by a design proposition; the foyer walls would embrace and protect the tree and the roof would nuture it. The roof is designed to gather rainwater onto a spillway gutter which directs water onto the tree through a strategically positioned spout.
Undercroft / Meeting Room - An underutilised building undercroft, dark and cluttered, was transformed into a sheltered student space with tables and seating, BBQs, powered workspaces, and bicycle parking. The existing walls and soffit were clad in new skins of metal panels designed to reflect more light into the space. What was formerly a tunnel of poor quality space was transformed into a well-utilised student meeting and recreational area.
Timber / Stainless Steel - A new timber deck at the rear of the building was floated over existing tree root zones with minimal impact. Shaped to weave around an existing tree, the deck also incorporated outdoor work-tables and seating allowing staff and students to recharge devices, work and meet within a garden setting. The design of the timber deck structure incorporated a play between two materials not often paired together; hardwood timber and polished stainless steel. The design of the deck became a game of opposing material interplay, - one between the timber of the deck and the stainless steel plate forming the continuous, ribbon-like looping balustrades, seating tables and fascia that define the deck’s perimeter.&#38;nbsp;

	 In an ever-evolving technological world, one’s focus and engagement is increasingly concerned with the virtual. In my view, the very physicality of architecture provides a stabilising anchor to one’s sense of self through its unique capacity to engage all our senses simultaneously. The haptic realm that is unique to architecture acts a counter-measure to the cerebral but strangely hollow space of the virtual.

This design for a renovation to a full-floor apartment in Melbourn’e heritage Toronto House building in Flinders Lane, seeks to express these ideas. The project uses a modest client brief, - add two bedrooms with en-suite to an existing linear apartment loft volume, and create a new space that provides a spiritual anchoring for a much travelled family with teenage children. 
Ideas of permanence, anchoring, nesting, enveloping and gravitas became important factors in our design thinking.
Blue Cave - A curvilinear vessel of space, the blue cave, finished in a fine, sky-blue venetian plaster, houses the two bedrooms and defines them as quiet personal retreats. Light falls into their interior through the large, spout-like forms on the caves.
White Nest - The linear white storage wall, the white nest, glossily white and sleek, houses multiple functions: office, ‘garage’, storage, reading niche, bar niche. It also houses a small army of seating and storage mobiles on that are used to create seating banquettes and social gathering settngs when required.Traditional and Continuing Land Country of the Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung and Bunerong people

	The ACT Supreme Court Redevelopment PPP project involved the complete redevelopment of the existing Supreme Court building dating from 1962 and the creation of a new ‘wing’ fronting onto Vernon Circle: one of the key urban nodes in Walter Burley Griffin’s esteemed master plan for Canberra.

The design mediated between existing heritage buildings and areas of national importance with the creation of contemporary courts facilities including 6 new court rooms, judicial accommodation, juror facilities, courts registry, courts public spaces and secure holding areas.

The resultant new wing of the ACT Supreme Court was a 5-level structure following the radial nature of Vernon Circle and further reinforcing this important urban pattern.
The radial geometry also increased façade perimeter which in turn maximised the degree of natural light and view to all court rooms.

In
2021, St Mary’s Girls College merged with CBC St Kilda to became a new,
co-educational college renamed St Mary’s College. The former CBC St Kilda, was founded
in 1878 and had been providing education for 138 years.&#38;nbsp;


Katsieris
Origami were engaged by the college to develop transformative and visionary
Master Plans for both the St Kilda East and Balaclava Campuses.


The
existing campuses were modified countless times over the decades and spanned
the full gamut of differing architectural styles dating back to the original
historic buildings constructed in 1878.
The Master Plan project involved
developing a detailed understanding of the existing multi-level campuses which
included a variety of historic buildings, mid-century brutalist buildings, newer
structures, disaggregated open spaces and adjacent public realm. 


Our
work undertook a detailed analysis of the existing uses and circulation
patterns of both college campuses. We spent time in classrooms observing
first-hand the limitations that outmoded existing learning spaces imposed on the
delivery of contemporary teaching.
Our Master Plan proposed the strategic
removal of existing built fabric to be replaced with an incremental enlargement
and rebuilding of specific buildings and spaces. We likened our work to
architectural acupuncture; the precise targeting and unlocking of specific
points within the campus that were causing significant blockage to the flow of
learning.


&#38;nbsp;The Master Plan re-envisioned the campuses of the near
future. They would be transformed from campuses of single-purpose buildings; long
corridors with endless rows of identical, cellular classrooms into wider, more
flexible, engaging learning environments for the college community.
