National architecture conference 2017

Our last stop yesterday was a tour of the great Sirius building by Tao Gofers. Such remarkable complexity and site engagement from such a simple set of design rules.

More from our Sydney architour yesterday is the exceptionally under appreciated Tower 1 Building at UTS. A brutalist beauty from the 1970s, its most recent claim to fame is being called “Sydney’s ugliest building by @frankgehry”. We think it’s awesome though, particularly this stunning lobby space. #architecture #architect #design #designer #architecturelovers #archilovers #conference #designs #designers […]

Next is the Health and Sciences Building, also at UTS, by @durbachblockjaggers. The offices are typically underfunded but the lobby and social spaces are amazing, filled with their trademark tiles. And then there’s this rockstar of a stair. #architecture #architect #design #designer #architecturelovers #archilovers #conference #designs #designers #sydney #australianarchitecture #visitsydney #architetto #architettura #mihalyslocombe #praxis2017 #walkingtour […]

First up on our self-guided walking tour of Sydney is the Dr. Chau Chak Wing at the University of Technology Sydney by @frankhehry. The curved brick skin is of course the highlight, but like much of Gehry’s work, mostly invisible from the interior. #architecture #architect #design #designer #architecturelovers #archilovers #conference #designs #designers #sydney #australianarchitecture #visitsydney […]

Food Cube

This is a sneak peak of Food Cube, an exciting new project for us. It’s an experiment in future forms for urban agriculture, one that can be adapted to suit under-utilised basement and rooftop locations within the city. Over the next few days, we’ll be sharing some of our inspirations for the project, keep an […]

Favourite dead architects: the mountaintop Chiesa al Villaggio Eni di Borca di Cadore is a mouthful to say but full of the concrete workmanship and lightness central to Scarpa’s work.

Favourite dead architects: Job loves the detail and craftsmanship of Carlo Scarpa, an architect whose works are as finely made as a delicate piece of furniture but scaled to the size of a building.

Draw a line from here to there, where here is the world we have today and there is the world we want tomorrow. Every work of architecture takes us one step closer to there. Which there do we want? #inspiration #inspirationalquotes #famousquote #quote #quotes #architecture #architect #design #designer #abrahamlincoln #designs #designers #architetto #architettura #mihalyslocombe

We attended the @msdsocial Dean’s Lecture by Achim Menges on Wednesday night. This is the Elytra Filament Pavilion at the @vamuseum, 2016. It’s a continuation of his team’s research into carbon fibre filament, this time wrapped around twisted column modules.
