Second Year, Semester Two
Rethinking Urbanism: Inhabited Bridges of Parramatta
Unit Coordinator: Hugo Moline
Teaching Staff: William J McKee, Shuang Wu
Final Review Critics: Eoghan Lewis, Isabelle Toland and Phillip Arnold
While typically bridges are understood to serve the sole purpose of connecting two points (A-B) and enabling efficient transit, this studio explores the possibilities of the bridge creating a third condition (X): a place that is about remaining rather than moving on, a place with a very specific purpose. The studio operates as a kind of public interest detective agency, conducting intensive site investigations to seek possible new programs and forms of life for Parramatta Park.
