PARASITIC DYSTOPIA - the proposal  

This architecture represents a skewed view of the paradox within the cultural boundaries of urban grunge and bourgeois high society, and symbolises the oscillation between their extremes that is deeply ingrained within the Victoria St precinct.

We see this analogy as the surrounding high cultural arrangements and proportions are disturbed by this parasitic inspired structure repressed and squeezed between Victorian bricks and mortar but overwhelms an otherwise simplistic form and establishes itself therein.

As a tribute to the area's lush vegetation, the network of steel frames mimics a system of orthotropic growth as it (ironically) attempts to assimmilate within its streetscape.

As well as aesthetics, this network of steel holds structural qualities as it supports and defines part of the building's roof.
