The FDW Design Film Festival film Things Will Be Different draws attention to the demolition of public housing and the resulting displacement of communities. Following the film’s screening at the LunaSX, join architects Nic Brunsdon (Brunsdon Studio) and Kieran Wong (Chair of Shelter WA) at the nearby P&O Hotel for a conversation about retrofitting as an alternative to demolition.

Nic will present research and test cases from Brunsdon Studio’s paper The Architecture of Care, including its proposal for the retrofit of Stirling Towers in Highgate.

How can we extend the concept of retrofitting beyond the physical structures and materiality of our cities while encompassing systemic changes? Join the conversation.

Drinks and food will be available from Ode to Sirens and entry is free to ticketholders of the film Things Will Be Different screening at the Luna SX beforehand. Please register via the ticket link (registration is essential).

Note: You don’t have to attend the film to attend this event.
