Digital collage-montage compiled of site analysis and creative development material



Inventory of the In-Between (2025) examines the urban laneway as both a material condition and a spatial subject.

    Scope: Spatial Design
    Type: Spatial research, site analysis
    Format: Website
    Sites: Flanigan Lane, McLean Alley, and Paynes Place
    Location: Melbourne
    Status: Completed within the design studio Textualised Object and Urban Interior at RMIT University under the supervision of Dr Brett Jones and Yawen Hu
    Year: 2025

Through walking, sustained observation and iterative acts of recording and response, the project investigates the laneway as an intermediate and generative space shaped by movement, ambiguity and latent spatial potential.
