The last few months have brought about more dramatic challenges to our economy than what we have seen in several decades.

The built environment industry has had to react to political, social and economic changes that will stay with us for years or even longer. In such a turbulent environment, how do companies adapt – not just to survive, but to set themselves up for future success? What lessons have been learned and what is the way forward?

The University of Melbourne Faculty of Architecture Building and Planning is holding a series of panel conversations called ‘State of the Industry’, inviting alumni and industry leaders to discuss how their industries have changed and what lies ahead.

Join Sibling Director Amelia Borg, John Denton (Founding Director, DCM) and Hamish Lyon (Director of Architecture and Design, NH Architecture) as they debate with Derek Huynh, founder of the University of Melbourne’s ABP Future Leaders Alumni Network.

We look forward to meeting again in real space for these conversations, but until then, please register here to join the panel online.

We are excited to see our Music Market project for Creative Victoria at the Collingwood Yards commence construction! In these complicated times of social distancing, the urgency to invest in these cultural and civic spaces is ever more present. Looking forward to the day when we can bring the community together at the Music Market.

There has been a pause from regular news and social media posts.

Sibling has been thinking about: How can architecture contribute to reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people in Australia?

We have produced a draft of intention in how Sibling could contribute in various ways. You can see our draft here.

We welcome your feedback. Our news and social media posts will return, but it won’t be business as usual.

Super thrilled to have the Frenches Interior feature in ‘More is More’ by Claire Bingham, a te neues published book that brings together furniture, fashion, object and interior design of the New Wave aesthetic. The featured projects demonstrate how contemporary design has been shaped by the post modernist and maximilist movement Memphis!

One of our New Agency chairs made it down to the MADA Gallery at Monash University as part of the exhibition Better Together: Stories of Contemporary Documents. Curated by Guillermo Fernández-Abascal, Kate Finning and Urtzi Grau with Anna Tonkin, Charles Choi, Jack Cooper and SPGD. The exhibition presents thirty three documents of contemporary Australian architecture and the associated stories. The definition of architectural documents is expansive, encompassing working drawings, correspondence, mockups and contracts; formats that expose the unique processes of contemporary architectural production. We suggest that the ability of architecture to have effect in the world resides in these very specific documents that allude to the modes through which contemporary architecture circulates but also suggest how architecture is produced today.
