Accommodation Dubai introduces

The Sydney edition of The Architecture Symposium 2025 invites a new generation of Australian architects to consider the future of architectural practice and the pathways to getting there.

Titled The Architecture Symposium: What's next for practice?, the event will feature 15 speakers from the emerging generation who are responding to contemporary social, environmental and economic challenges by embracing an evolution of architectural practice and process. These speakers will share their approaches for driving meaningful change and the projects through which these ideas are being realised. Their collective insight will illustrate how architectural practice is being redefined by the next generation.

Presenters include: Grace Mortlock of Other Architects; Rory Hyde of the University of Melbourne; Amelia Borg of Sibling Architecture; Ben Berwick of Prevalent; Simon Robinson of Office; Ksenia Totoeva of Tonkin Zulaikha Greer Architects; Christina Cho of Cox Architecture; Liz Walsh of So. Architecture; Jack Gillmer-Lilley of SJB; Xavier De Kestelier of Hassell; Isabelle Toland of Aileen Sage Architects; Andrew Nimmo of Lahznimmo Architects; Nic Brunsdon of Brunsdon Studio; Billy Maynard of Billy Maynard Architects, and Belqis Youssofzay of Youssofzay Hart.

The full-day symposium will be held on 1 August, followed by the 2025 Houses Awards on the evening of the same day. Tickets to the symposium and the 2025 Houses Awards are now available. Architects are eligible to earn up to 4.5 formal CPD points, while Design Institute of Australia members can earn 6 DIA CPD points by attending The Architecture Symposium: What's Next for Practice?
