This is about change and continuity.  Trinity College’s “Dorothy” student housing and its Kitchens Precinct are new additions to the campus which forms part of the University of Melbourne. The brief for both projects called for the creation of new buildings and courtyards that expanded the established character of the College.  Our work aims to redeploy the lessons of Trinity’s iconic “Bulpadock” to form external rooms as companions for 21st Century building. The ways in which the campus’ historical central open space creates social encounter and makes space for opportunistic occupation and use have been transferred to the new courtyards, which attempt to use landscape to organise and permit student life. Both projects include the re-establishment of an endemic ecology into the campus to recasts the ways that historic Oxbridge buildings site on Country. The projects speculate on how an immersive indigenous landscape might change the behaviour of the body, slowing it, providing a place for respite and allowing the time and scale of the landscape to be noticed and understood. Both projects use landscape to carefully negotiate between heritage listed buildings, new built form and the salvaged bricks, tiles, slate and lintels from demolished site buildings, which are redeployed in the ground plane as a kind of material memory and presence.
