The Architecture Symposium is a Design Speaks program organised by Architecture Media

In an increasingly digital world, many architects find inspiration in escaping the office and engaging directly with materials and trade knowledge.

Collaborative prototyping, sketching and open conversation on site can lead to new design possibilities that respond to the many environmental, technological and economic challenges we face today.

This symposium explores and celebrates the opportunities of being “out of office.” Speakers from across Australia and abroad will share stories from site, their collaboration with builders, and their hands-on models of practice and education.

Clare Kennedy of Five Mile Radius and John Ellway of John Ellway Architect are the curators of this symposium.
