23.01.2022 What are the implications of the shift to working from home for the design of domestic spaces? UQ Architecture PhD students Maram Shaweesh and Annalise Varghese argue that this involves a shift in the perception of home from a place of respite to a place of economic production and that there is much to learn from those who are already adept at navigating this conjunction. https://archiparlour.org/rethinking-home-post-pandemic/

20.01.2022 ARCH7007: Architecture and Urban Design progress images The studio takes as a springing point a fictional narrative in the tradition of a Bartlett unit, in this case a strike from an unknown group. This is a vivid form of an otherwise familiar occurrence: cities are regularly called upon to reassess themselves in response to serious crises: economic, natural, social/political, technological, etc. The crises are destructive, but are also opportunities for regeneration and ch...ange. It is a space for the architect as protagonist 1: Qiyao Liu, sanitorium on St Helena Island 2: Elizabeth Robbins, toxic substance released in the city centre and decision is made to seal off and abandon areas ground plane 3: Lachlan Sweet, Funerary architecture where a ceremonial route weaves through existing urban landscape 4: Malakai Smith, Dystopian enclave 5: Matthew Walton, severing of an already marginalised area of City of Logan. An isolated community proactively has to reshape their natural and built environment 6: Malakai Smith, first of a series of apocryphal towers 7: Hamish Buchhorn, existing monumental industrial buildings as a complex of baths and lidos This studio is led by architect Peter Besley.
