Georgina Gillett
Master of Architecture, 2021
My name is Georgina Gillett. I began studying at the University of Canberra in 2016 and have completed a Bachelor of Arts in Architecture 2019 and currently finishing a Master of Architecture. I have had many highlights throughout my studies including undertaking an elective in Italy and perusing the faculty led tour to Japan in 2022 to complete my degree. I have gained an array of specific interests within architecture, including sustainability and the impact architecture has on the planet and I am eager to learn more about Japanese architecture in the faculty led tour to Japan.
My graduation studio, in collaboration with Christopher Smith and Kirsten Bleeze, was a project involving the challenge of creating a hybrid zone, city within a city, located on the edge of Haig Park and Northbourne Avenue.
I'm looking for a job.
Selected Portfolio
South-west Axonometric
My project looking from Condamine Street. Residential suspends above as the social condenser passes through. Gallery on the left with its double skin façade (perforated brick and translucent white glass) will light up this area at night.
Program Distribution
Gallery and childcare center occupy the ground level, whilst the community hall, restaurant, apartments and theatre float above as they intersect with the social condenser, continuing the floating language that we created throughout this space. Access to these intermingle to create interesting interactions between programs.
Street Level Plan
Focused on the Condamine Street edge, with a tram station on Northbourne Avenue activating the top right segment, creating a dynamic entry into our social condenser
