This is a unique opportunity for the people of Melbourne to listen to some of our great architects and designers discuss the ideas behind their built works in a relaxed and friendly forum. Each evening eight key speakers will have just 10 minutes to present their work and capture your imagination – come and be inspired
Our first speaker series of the season focuses on eight notable Melbourne buildings and places. You will have the wonderful opportunity to listen to some of Melbourne’s most prominent architects and designers discuss the concepts behind their own works. The evening covers a vast range of Melbourne buildings and places ranging from Cox’s Rectangular stadium to a Sean Godsell house, from the New Children’s Hospital to the landscape design of Birrarung Marr.
Each speaker will conclude with their favourite Melbourne building by another architect, providing an insight into the works our design professionals regard most highly.
