About this Event

In conjunction with the recent release of KA ME RA Modern Japanese Architecture Through The Photographer's Lens, which is a combination of photobook, history and historiography tracing developments and key figures shaping our images of understanding of architecture in Japan. Join us for broad discussions about architectural photography, its producers and its implications.

This year, Monash Design will extend Monash University’s Faculty of Art, Design and Architecture’s commitment to ‘creativity for purpose’, by examining and demonstrating design’s key role in actioning this ambition. Through a series of workshops, interactive engagements, exhibitions and guest lectures, this series of events will showcase the Australian-made design projects with a strong focus on design futures that demonstrate design’s diverse contribution to the world through responsible, thoughtful, inclusive and accountable approaches to design research and practice. It will draw on the extensive and highly respected research of its core research labs, including the Emerging Technologies Lab (designing quantum futures), XYX Lab (queer film stories); and Mobility Design Lab (accessing our cities through improved public mobility systems). Individual researchers and practitioners will contribute to vital discussions and demonstrations such as: sustainable futures and designing research translations. Both Postgraduate and undergraduate student projects and design methods will also feature.

Melbourne Design Week is an initiative of the Victorian Government through Creative Victoria.
