Architectural Design Across Spaces and Cultures: Technology and Language. This project addresses two significant productivity barriers facing Australia’s architectural practices; designing in spatially distributed and culturally diverse teams.
While design practices are central to sustaining Australia’s creative export sector, growing concerns associated with online, multilingual design teams have been identified.

This project addresses two significant productivity barriers facing Australia’s architectural practices; designing in spatially distributed and culturally diverse teams.
While design practices are central to sustaining Australia’s creative export sector, growing concerns associated with online, multilingual design teams have been identified.
Directly responding to Australia’s COVID-19 recovery plans, this research seeks to develop new knowledge about the cognitive, social and technical factors that shape the effectiveness of online international design teamwork. Its goal is to leverage the opportunities provided through technological advances and multicultural practices, to remove barriers to design productivity and enhance creativity.Read moreRead less

The Centre will generate specialised workforce capacity within Australia’s architectural sector. Leveraging advanced architectural computing discoveries will connect architectural design with the opportunities afforded by advanced manufacturing systems. The Centre will triangulate world-leading researchers, visionary partners, and talented graduates, integrating research into practice through digital business strategies, augmented intelligence, and computing domains of expertise. The Centre’s program of industry-embedded PhD’s, national/international placements, short courses, and post-doctoral projects will co-develop the change agents needed to transform the architectural profession to meet our nation’s immediate strategic needs.Read moreRead less
Architectural design to improve Indigenous health outcomes. The project seeks to develop evidence-based knowledge on what Indigenous clients find supportive or stressful in health care settings, to formulate recommendations for architectural design and service delivery. Many Indigenous people fail to present for health care until chronically ill, due to fear or dislike of health services and their settings. This project aims to understand how design in healthcare architecture across different bu ....Architectural design to improve Indigenous health outcomes. The project seeks to develop evidence-based knowledge on what Indigenous clients find supportive or stressful in health care settings, to formulate recommendations for architectural design and service delivery. Many Indigenous people fail to present for health care until chronically ill, due to fear or dislike of health services and their settings. This project aims to understand how design in healthcare architecture across different building scales and services (clinics, hospitals, waiting rooms, wards etc) affects Indigenous people’s use and perceptions of these environments and consequent motivation to access health care services. Developing innovative and adaptable research methods, the project seeks to identify the necessary architectural design changes for health settings to facilitate access for Indigenous people.Read moreRead less
