Snowy, Australia

 

 

Australia is a livable country to live in. However in the Snowie, it goes get cold and can be a temperate climate as well. As a modern abode hub, this means that there will be many uses for this structure. The snowflakes is the inspiration of this project taken from the nature to create the core structure of the building. Snowflake’s structure is combination of several linear lines of ice to form a bigger ice structure. From that idea, it became a main feature of the building.

 

The building is mainly supported by snowflake-like structure consist of local manufactured steel giving the building a dynamic structure and stronger build. The structure is giving the building more acquired spaces into the building as well; series of mezzanine floor up until the roof providing 360 degrees view of the Snowie. Double glass curtain wall helps the occupants warms during the cold weather and providing an extra light to the space as well. Most of the materials are local produced and easy available around Australia.
