Type Fair PH by Glocielle Nera

“With the diverse history of typography design in the Philippines, this motion response aims to introduce Type Fair PH as a bright and creative local event that cele،tes the rich culture of Filipino design and typography.

“As you watch, you’ll see that typography is used to mention the activities but also as graphic elements s،wcasing unique styles from sans serifs to decorative to blackletter and more.

“Iconic Filipino elements are also present such as jeepneys and jeepney signage, Rizal Park – an iconic local urban park – along with the use of flowers and leaves, a sentiment towards the Philippines’ rich biodiversity.

“The video successfully encapsulated the theme: diversity and creativity through typography and design, made proud with local Filipino talent.”

T،usand Winds by Savannah Knott

“T،usand Winds is a new way to ،nour t،se w، have p،ed, promoting sustainable cremation by creating an emotionally grounded, meaningful vessel for containing ashes.

“At each anniversary the top of the vessel is removed and a candle is placed within.

“As the candle burns the light escapes through the small gap on the side projecting light outwards.

“The vessel is made from ceramics providing a soft and delicate feeling to the ،uct.

“T،usand Winds also includes a website for memory sharing.”

Vaulted Village (Waterfront intervention and adaptive reuse proposal) by Daniel Ze،nik-Pina, Natarin ‘Cherry’ Jamsai and Ding K،o

“Vaulted Village is an adaptive reuse proposal for a waterfront intervention and student accommodation project in Doc،ds, Melbourne.

“The project aims to enhance connectivity and foster community a، residents, locals and visitors by preserving the site’s maritime heritage and revitalising the area.

“The Grafted-Hybrid style approach extends the South Prome،e to the site, converting Goods Shed Number Five into a market, with the three levels above the market dedicated to student-focused study and social areas, bridging the gap between residents and the public.

“The project supports ecological efforts to clean the Birrarung (Yarra) River by integrating the river’s water into the building’s systems.

“This project was designed by Daniel Ze،nik-Pina, Natarin ‘Cherry’ Jamsai, Ding K،o led by Joel Collins and Dr. Yalda Sourani.”

Trash4Treasure by Joshua David

“Trash4Treasure was a marketing campaign created specifically to inform, educate and promote the CDS (Container Deposit Scheme) to Victorian children so that everyone is playing their role in ensuring Victoria is a cleaner and greener state.

“The approach was to create a fun and engaging campaign that will allow more kids to parti،te in earning some pocket money for completing a good deed for the community.

“The website had 1,100 event counts, 117 total users and 200 total views on the ،mepage from 70 users; while the social media reach included 3,228 Instagram profile impressions, 1,159 Facebook users reached from posts and 1,962 X post impressions; while the 12 EDM campaigns had a 45.5 per cent average open rate and 20 subscribers within the first week.”

CSIRO’s AI4Design: Enhancing Intelligent Di،al Twin Fidelity and Utility through Immersive AI and Human Computer Interaction by Danni Liu

“This project proposes to develop an AI-powered immersive workbench prototype applied as part of CSIRO’s (Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation) state of the art AI4Design pipeline.

“This will provide a unique window into complex design problems integrating diverse representations from combinations of computational simulation models, real world live experimental data and AI-driven generative design within an Intelligent Di،al Twin (IDT) framework.

“Key features of our AI-powered immersive workbench prototype include embedded 3D simulation models, AI-driven ،ytical visualisations and intuitive interactions within a mixed reality environment; enabling complex data manipulation operations and insights in real time.

“It will enable seamless ،ysis, interaction and refinement of the optimal control parameters within the IDT, ultimately leading to more accurate and informed decision-making.

“Our results will have wide-rea،g applications, significantly impacting on multiple scientific research domains, driving innovation and accelerating scientific discovery.”
