Industry Event: Sydney Architecture Festival (20th - 30th Oct)


















I've got to say, I'm impressed, very impressed by the level of involvement by our faculty (the UNSW Built Environment for those of you reading this in the early hours of the morning) in the 2011 Sydney Architecture Festival. It's almost as if we as students in the Built Environment have no choice but just attend all of talks, exhibitions, & tours happening.. Particularly when you see the number of industry leaders involved (Richard GoodwinJames Stockwell), many of which are also lecturers & academics in our faculty (Glenn Murcutt, Richard Johnson, Jim PlumeDr Paul HogbenDr Peter KohaneHarry Margalit). In addition to the must attend architecture talks there are also a bunch of other architecture events happening around Sydney, like the Streetworks exhibition & installation around the city. I know it's that all too stressful submission/exam time of year again but I definitely encourage as many of my fellow students (yes, I'm talking to you) to check out as much of the Sydney Architectural Festival as they possibly can! At the end of the day our studies at university only really make up a small portion of our architectural (including interior, landscape, computing) education.. think about it!
