Melbourne Conversations: Designing with Country

Event description

The notion of Country is fundamental to Indigenous ways of knowing, being, and designing. Yet, as architects and landscape architects increasingly seek to engage with this concept, the question remains: what is Country? How do diverse Indigenous communities across Australia define and relate to it? And how might a deeper understanding transform contemporary design practices?

This year’s Designing with Country discussion invites you to explore these questions with the Yulendj Weelam Lab and leading Indigenous thinkers Owen Cafe and Leila Gurruwiwi. Together, they will unpack the complexity and richness of Country, offering insights into its meaning, relevance, and potential to shape a more culturally responsive built environment.

Light refreshments provided.
