Architecture Australia

Ask architects which Australian magazine they choose to read or to publish their work and the answer is most likely Architecture Australia. If you want to be up to date with the best built works and the issues that matter, then Architecture Australia is for you. Its commissioned contributors are independent, highly respected practitioners, architectural thinkers and design commentators and each article is supported by images from leading architectural photographers. Provocative, informative and engaging – it is the national magazine of the Australian Institute of Architects.

Architecture Australia

Are you really Designing with Country? • The term “Designing with Country” is increasingly being commodified in the built environment industries. Every professional has a responsibility for honouring it properly.

Sydney Fish Market 3XN GXN Architects in association with BVN Architecture and Aspect Studios • The much-anticipated Sydney Fish Market is a building that must live up to tradition – both of grand public architecture and of authentic cultural ritual. It’s a large order to fill.

Melbourne Metro Tunnel Hassell, Weston Williamson and Partners, and Rogers Stirk Harbour and Partners • The long-awaited Metro Tunnel project delivers Melbourne its first truly metro-style commuter rail network, with five new city stations promising fine-grained urban connectivity.

The Forest Woods Bagot • An adaptable city campus for the University of Tasmania honours the site’s iconic built history while pointing to a future where circularity is engrained and sustainability is all-encompassing.

St Thomas More Columbarium Simon Pendal Architect • A new interment space for a local church community in Western Australia is a demonstration of life-enhancing civic architecture made with humanity and care.

Birdwood Peter Besley • A home in the heart of Magandjin/Brisbane speaks to a new era of Queensland residential architecture, where multi-layered experiential design mingles with responsive climatic innovations.

The Rothschild Candalepas Associates • In a rapidly densifying inner-Sydney where rote residential builds are becoming the norm, a new project stands apart with surprising flourishes and a refreshingly off-beat rhythm.
