degree production: N-I-O AMBI


N-I-O AMBI A Writer's Retreat

This design project is an extension of the competition entry for the 2003 Australasian Student Interior Design Competition – The Poetry of Space. It was produced for the qualifying round which would then be nominated as entry for “A Writer’s Retreat” competition organised by the Commonwealth Association of Architects.


The preliminary design concepts were maintained and alterations were required to meet a new set of requirements.

Large panels were used to divert the writer’s view towards the sky when he engages in his act of writing and composing.

During the summer, water is channelled through the panel system which will cool the interior space. In winter, solar energy is converted into electrical power by means of solar panels to heat up the water in the panel system.

Transparent and translucent materials have been applied to promote vastness in the space. The space is washed in white finish in order to capture the colours of dawn and dusk.

The design is eco-friendly through the extraction of both kinetic and light energy from the principal energy source – sun.
