The Wellbeing of Architects research project

The Wellbeing of Architects is an interdisciplinary collaboration between researchers at RMIT, Monash University’s Department of Architecture (Faculty of Art, Design and Architecture) and Department of Management (Faculty of Business and Economics). 

It also includes many industry-based research partners including the New South Wales Architects Registration Board, the Australian Institute of Architects, and Association of Consulting Architects (ACA), as well as the peak body representing architecture schools – the Association of Australasian Schools of Architecture (AASA). Six architectural practices have also partnered on the project: BVN, DesignInc, Elenberg Fraser, Hassell, SJB and The Fulcrum Agency.

Through these partnerships, the project hopes to produce better outcomes for all members of this unusual and strongly identified cohort – across education and practice.
