Expression of Interest

Architectural Design Competition , New Building for the Faculty of Architecture, Building and Planning Via Online Upload May 1, 2009

It is with great pleasure and excitement that Studio Daniel Libeskind respond to your Call for Expressions of Interest for the University of Melbourne Architectural Design Competition for the New building for the Faculty of Architecture, Building, and Planning. We consider it an honor to have the opportunity to work on such a meaningful project. Our Studio is involved in an exciting array of architectural projects across the world, that have formed the basis of our practice and we’re enthusiastic about the potential for the University of Melbourne and its surrounding area.

Daniel Libeskind believes that architecture today is the most important symbol for a city and its academic, cultural and public life. SDL is capable of designing and delivering a project of this type as shown by the following criteria exhibited in this Expression of Interest. We have included projects ranging from concept to completion as our concrete examples of said capabilities. We emphasize our design philosophy and architectural approach within these examples.

Our interest is to design a unique building in an economically responsible manner. The project will provide a new learning environment that will demonstrate the best that each of the professions represented by the faculty has to offer. It will be an outstanding work of architecture, in both appearance and performance; it will be an outstanding work of urban design, activating and connecting to the campus and its community; it will use advanced construction, structural and servicing techniques, it will demonstrate integrated design between the natural and built landscape in and around the building. The building will also communicate ongoing work in each of these professions by enabling completed and in-process work of staff and students to be highly visible, as well as being enlivened by regular discussions, exhibitions and displays of contemporary and historical work.

We sincerely hope that we will be given the opportunity to personally convey our commitment, passion and enthusiasm for this project.

Sincerely Yours, Lynn Krogh Director of Public Relations

Studio Background

Daniel Libeskind established his architectural studio in Berlin, Germany in 1989. Upon winning the World Trade Center design competition in February 2003, Studio Daniel Libeskind (SDL) moved its headquarters to New York City. The office is now headquartered two blocks south of the original World Trade Center site.

Since 1990, the office has been fortunate to be involved in a diverse array of urban, architectural, and cultural projects. The office has won commissions for major cultural buildings and significant urban projects in Germany, Switzerland, Denmark, Dubai, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Italy, Canada, the United States, Japan, Spain, Israel, Mexico, Korea, Singapore and China. Daniel Libeskind’s architecture continues to reflect his profound interest and involvement in philosophy, art, music, literature, theater and film, and a continuing commitment to expanding the horizons of architecture and urbanism.

It is fundamental to Daniel Libeskind’s thinking and motivation that buildings and urban projects are crafted with perceptible human energy and that they speak to the larger cultural community in which they are built.

The New York office has an average permanent staffing of 70 persons. SDL has European partner offices based in Zürich, Switzerland and Milan, Italy. In addition, the Studio has established site and partner offices with personnel around the world, including San Francisco, Denver, Bern, Toronto and Hong Kong, bringing the total number of worldwide employees to roughly 140 persons.

The office has extensive resources and experience in computer aided design, with Macintosh and PC computer workstations used to produce 2D and 3D presentation materials, working drawings, and construction documents. The office uses email and FTP sites to furnish design documents to consultants all over the world and maintains a video conferencing facility. Complementing this, traditional drawing and model-making techniques are extensively employed at all stages of the design process to visualize and develop important aspects of the designs. In particular, a comprehensively equipped workshop, with facilities for the production of high-quality presentation models and mock-ups, functions as a key resource in the development and realization of the Studio’s designs.

Design Team Studio Daniel Libeskind DANIEL LIBESKIND, B.ARCH. M.A. BDA AIA is an international figure in architectural practice and urban design.

ARUP Introduction Arup in the Americas is an integral part of the Arup Group Ltd, one of the world’s largest independent engineering firms. Established in 1946, Arup has grown into an international group of multi-disciplinary practices with over 10,000 staff in 92 offices in 37 countries. The firm was established in the US in 1985 to provide the multi-disciplinary service that embodies the Arup philosophy and design approach.

Arup in Australia For more than 40 years, Arup has worked in partnership with its clients as a key contributor in the development of Australia. Arup came to Australia in 1963 to undertake the structural design of the Sydney Opera House. We have been in Singapore since 1968, and have developed a diverse practice through a wide range of projects for public and private clients. Today, Arup in Australia is a multidisciplinary practice offering services across Australia, New Zealand, South East Asia and the Pacific. We have more than 1,300 staff comprising engineers, planners, project managers and a diverse range of consulting specialists. Arup’s breadth of experience equips us to draw together key players from around the globe to bring the best possible team to any given project. Globally, as a part of the Arup Group, we are more than 10,000 strong, operating out of 92 offices in 37 countries.

Total Design Engineering disciplines are integrated to provide clients and architects with a coordinated service from a project’s inception through to completion. The objectives are to contribute fully at the conceptual stage of a project, to ensure that the relevant engineering considerations and options are properly exposed to the owner and architect, and to ensure that the design is developed in a well-coordinated manner Total Design is undertaken by multi-disciplinary project teams, led by a principal-in-charge and a project manager, and including senior and supporting staff in each discipline required. The key project staff form an effective unit accustomed to working together as a team. Each team is responsible for handling its projects from inception to completion, thus ensuring full continuity.

Higher Education Arup understands the special needs of the campus. Arup brings a depth of experience in delivering the spectrum of project types found on the education campus, including academic, dormitory, performance spaces, laboratory, galleries, libraries, sport, transportation facilities and central plants. Arup also delivers services across the total life of these projects from needs assessment, capital planning, master planning, design, construction, commissioning, and post occupancy support. Arup recognizes that the fundamental purpose of the education campus is to teach. With this recognition comes a deep seated belief that through good design, Arup can contribute to the creation of better learning environments.

Arup has been involved in the design of educational facilities for 40 years. Projects undertaken range in scope from renovation of private institutions to the design of new world class facilities requiring fully integrated multidisciplinary teams. We have also worked with artists and exhibit designers on individual pieces and exhibits.

Designing and executing projects around the world with the invaluable input of our clients has given us a wealth of experience. Today Arup offers a broad spectrum of consulting services allowing us to provide almost all the technical design services required to successfully complete projects. We carefully identify the client’s criteria for success, design the means for achieving it and provide skills and management expertise for effective project implementation.

The Academic Environment As demonstrated by the projects we include in this EOI, this new building will provide an inspiring work environment for all staff, and in particular, will facilitate high quality research outcomes from academic staff and Research Higher Degree (RHD) students. The academic work environment will provide a range of opportunities from quiet, individual research to collaborative work with other academics and with RHD students. The building will play an essential part in the Faculty’s goal of attracting and retaining the best staff and allowing flexibility and choice in work styles.

The new building will provide an outstanding teaching and learning environment for all staff and students. It will provide a range of formal and informal teaching and learning spaces, encouraging interac- tion between students from all year levels, while still providing acoustic and visual privacy to enable work to proceed without interruption where necessary. Teaching and learning spaces will be based on advanced theories of studio and classroom design, addressing the role of technology, staff-student interaction and work styles in their layout, furnishings, and equipment. Studio is seen as the focus of student learning, the place of immersion in professional culture driven by experiential learning and global engagement in relevant social issues.

The building will demonstrate outstanding performance in the design and on-going operation of its environmental systems. It will use the best available techniques and technologies for sustainable design, and for the use of materials, energy, air and water. The building will also act as a laboratory, providing opportunities for staff and students to control, adjust and monitor environmental systems such as sun-shading or natural ventilation. The building will take advantage of local climate conditions to resourcefully provide high levels of occupant comfort, which will be evident through changes in the internal environment or to the external fabric. Internal spaces will be adaptable and flexible, but still have access to high quality natural light, ventilation and acoustics.

Capability and Process As aforementioned, SDL and ARUP have completed projects of this size, scale, and type. Schedule is a huge factor in all the projects and a highly prescriptive time schedule will be an inherent part of the brief for realization. Once such a schedule is fixed from the outset and agreement is secured with the whole Design Team and Construction Manager or Main Contractor, it is broadly matter of each associ- ated company staging the job in a manner to achieve their respective deliverables on time. With any given project, SDL expects varying sources of time management demands, for example: Client brief/ spending pattern requirements, Client’s Project Manager’s schedule, Construction Manager schedule and varying site conditions during construction, taking account of differing construction forms.

Another important factor for all projects is cost. Studio Daniel Libeskind expects to work with a cost control strategy that builds and develops throughout the project work stages. Within the Pre-Schematic and Schematic Design phases, the value is in having a clear and strong elemental cost plan. This allows the following for both the principal material decisions to be made in conjunction with the emergent form and confirmation of where funds are needed relative to Client financing packages and project cash flow predictions.

Process for Each Segment of the Project Pre-Schematic Design: Construction Documents: • Research and context specific gathering of information on site • On the basis of Client Design Development approval • Collaborative workshops with the Clients to understand and advise the program requirements and architectural aspirations • All Construction Documents produced by team at Joint Venture office close to • Intensive period of design and model building in our Studio ensure that they are produced in close connection with • Formal reporting of drawings, renderings, models, and outline cost estimate the local city laws, technical requirements while working with the contractor Schematic Design: • Production in close coordination with Construction Manager • On the basis of Client Pre-Schematic Design approval Construction Administration: • Development of outline design, again in close collaboration with all Clients • Contract Administration undertaken • Studio Daniel Libeskind’s Project Manager ensures liaison with local governing bodies and secure permissions in liaison • SDL ensure complimentary and constant design supervision with Clients • Deliveries to Client include comprehensive plans, sections, elevations, renderings, models outline specification and cost report Design Development: • On the basis of Client Schematic Design approval • Large scale study models enable architectural development and engineering/environmental modeling for use in working with Construction Managers and Sub-contractors • Formal reporting to include running costs to Client • Close working relationship with Client body to ensure detail of scheme provides optimal functioning of program • Deliverables to include more detailed specifications and finishes, large scale layout plans, typical details and cost report Studio Daniel Libeskind Relevant Projects

Elevation from Northeast The Graduate Student Centre for the London The Metropolitan University is a small building dedicated to the growing graduate population and is placed as a major gateway to the University on Holloway Road.

The building, which opened in March of 2004, promotes postgraduate identity through the provision of facilities to enhance the staff and student experience of graduate educations. It also encourages and facilitates cross-university collaboration at postgraduate level.

Even though it is a small project with a modest budget, the new development is vital to the University and greatly enhances student life as well as the local surroundings.

The University argues that top quality design can greatly improve the educational experience for the students as they feel valued and enjoy learning in high-quality surroundings.

Aerial View of the Centre

Voices and its Echoes stands for the focal point which brings together the two essential components of the Bar-Ilan university: the secular and the sacred. Apparent in the form of the building is the interrelation between the dynamics of knowledge and the unifying role of faith.

The exciting form of the auditorium, lobbies, seminar rooms and public spaces are penetrated by the “labyrinth of letters” in which an ancient constellation of hierarchies is made visible. The functional volumes of program and the subtle enigma of light are carefully adjusted to create a space full active and meditative atmosphere.

The entire building functions as a dynamic ensemble which through its flexibility of usage can function equally intensively during the day or the night. The building’s exterior is homogeneous in form, built in stone and metal, penetrated by the projections of the labyrinth of letters which defines and organizes the glazing and indirect light.

The building stands on a critical crossroad in the campus and opens a dialogue between the university and its neighbors. As such, Voices and its Echoes is a gateway and beacon for the students, faculty, guests and public of the 21st Century. Auditorium
