FUTURE HOMES: 26 March - 24 May Incorporating current research on historical migration patterns, changes in demography, legislation, planning and construction, and their impact on housing typology, ‘Future Homes’ parallels these past examples with present investigations. Stage Two will expand this interrogation with floor talks, speaker events, panels and student engagement in collaboration with industry, government and academic practitioners who discuss their proposals, approaches and research to the key drivers of the Design Week theme – community, care and climate. Location: Basement, MSD, Glyn Davis Building. 
APRIL 23: Foreign investment in the AUS real estate market has been one of the major contributors to growth in property values. What role will it play in a post-COVID world? Both supported and curtailed by various governments at different times, the impact of foreign investment on the commercial property market is complex and multi-faceted. In partnership with ULI Australia, this is the second of three webinars hosted by Peter Holland (Director, International Property Economics - Urbis). Join us for a panel discussion featuring Stuart Crow (CEO Capital Markets Asia Pacific - JLL), Adrian Harrington (Head of Capital & Product Development - Charter Hall), Ian Mackie (Chairman - Urban Land Institute Australia) and Leonie Wilkinson (Senior Vice President - Brookfield Asset Management). The conversation will be followed by an audience Q&A. April 23, 11am - Online. Register => http://go.unimelb.edu.au/nu2i 
Presenting WIPs from Master of Architecture students enrolled in Studio 02: Hackney led by Rennie Liffen and Oskar Kazmanli-Liffen. Studio 02 investigates ‘the form of ritual’ in architecture by exploring intimate and idiosyncratic projects that reveal the human dimensions of contemporary life. The studio promotes sensitivity and humility in architectural thought and process, but also seeks opportunities within projects to explore empowerment and social equality. The studio carefully walks a line between the poetic, the pragmatic and the politic where each step is guided by robust design process. These works are currently displayed on Level 2, MSD (Glyn Davis Building). #design #architecture 
Design Studio Delta: Project 1 Pavilion by Bachelor of Design student @portfolio.nds “The ‘Blanket Pavilion’ was designed to showcase the 14 maps of our studio, and provide shelter for their viewing. The flowing form mirrors a blanket thrown over a bed. It serves not only as a gallery space but also a public shelter, exploring what defines indoor and outdoor public space in a post-covid world.” #architecture #design #pavillion #architecturestudent #digitaldesign
