Hearing Architecture is a podcast featuring professionals from within the built environment, sharing what they do, and why it's important. In this podcast, we'll be interviewing architects, builders, and designers from around Australia who will tell us about the work they are doing to improve our cities and neighbourhoods.

Hearing Architecture

Architects used to draw everything with set squares, compasses, and rulers, then came the mechanical drafting table. During this time architects had to draw every part of their drawings individually, then came dye-line machines and printers. By this time studios were filled with large format drafting tables, printers and plotters, and then computers were slowly introduced so you could do most things on a small monitor. After this, fax machines allowed drawings to be sent by phone so it took less time for everyone in the project team to get drawings and instructions, but this was soon replaced by email. To see how engineers and architects drawings worked together, some firms started playing with Building Information Management, which allowed multiple people in a team to see how the parts of the building come together in 3D. These days there’s a lot of discussion around parametric modeling, Artificial Intelligence, and automated manufacturing. With so many ways of designing architecture throughout history, there seems to be an almost unending conveyor belt of technology that architects need to use to do their job.  In this episode of Hearing Architecture we’ve asked architects from around Australia what will happen to architecture as more advanced technology is introduced into the studio. The more support we get from you the more episodes we get to make. So if you’d like to show your support please rate, review, and subscribe to Hearing Architecture in your favourite podcast app. This episode of Hearing Architecture featured the following guests: Justin Carrier, Steven Postmus, Lee Hillam, Jo Rees, Jefa Greenaway, Rod Simpson, Sue Dugdale, Amelia Borg, Timothy Moore, Jane Caught, Shaneen Fantin, Belinda Allwood, Rob McGauran, Professor Philip Thalis, Dik Jarman, and Andrew Maynard.

The future is now

The design of any building is an act of looking into the future. The look of our cities and neighbourhoods evolve with every building that architects design. Throughout history, many architects have had aspirations for what our cities should look like. Some designs have shown buildings interconnected with nature, others are dystopic visions of cities run by machines without any considerations for people. Weather architects are mainly concerned with climate change, emerging technologies, or changes in the social structure of work, there are many things that are going to change the fabric of cities in the future. In this episode of Hearing Architecture, we’ve asked architects from around Australia what our cities and towns will look like in 2050.

To infinity and beyond

Becoming an architect takes a long time. In Australia, a student has to spend a minimum of 5 years at university in order to get an architecture degree. During this time, students learn about the design process, the history and theories that have shaped the profession, and practical building techniques. After graduation, it still takes at least 2 years to get enough experience to become registered. Despite having all those years of study under their belt, architects need to continue educating themselves in order to keep up with the evolving built environment landscape. Not only do architects have to stay up-to-date with the core areas of competency, but they can also tailor their professional development towards the areas that they specialize in. With so many elements that architects need to understand from business through to detailing, it’s an ongoing task for architects to keep their knowledge base current. In this episode of Hearing Architecture, we’ve asked architects from around Australia how they continue to learn and develop their practices in their fast-evolving profession. This episode of Hearing Architecture features the following guests: Jefa Greenaway, Justin Carrier, Steven Postmus, Damian Madigan, Andrew Maynard, Sue Dugdale, Peter Stutchbury, Yvette Breytenbach, Joe Agius, Amelia Borg, Nicholas Braun, Shaneen Fantin, Belinda Allwood, Dik Jarman, Lee Hillam, and Joe Rees.

When does learning stop

One of the things that makes Australia great is our richness of diversity. There are people from so many cultural backgrounds, language groups, and belief systems, which influences the way they want to live and shape their buildings. Allowing for these differences in the architecture process can raise some interesting opportunities. When an architect works with a client from a different background they’ll need to learn how to design for that clients needs and the architect might not have experienced that before. It’s these collaborations that can help the way Australian buildings evolve over time. However, when buildings are designed to meet the needs of large number of people in Australia, the results sometimes only meet the minimum requirements for a narrow demographic of our diverse community. By working with an architect, it should be possible to get much closer to the individual needs of all the people who make up our rich multicultural society. In this episode of Hearing Architecture we’ve asked architects from around Australia how empathy, understanding and diversity impacts their clients and the community.

Empathy and Understanding

In 1980 the median house price in Melbourne was $40,800. Fast forward to 2016 and the median price of a house was $713,000. With property prices rising across the country, the concept of the Australian Dreamhouse on its own block with a front and back yard is becoming more like a fantasy. This was in part because median income didn’t have the same rate of growth as property prices, so the gap between house income and house expense became wider every year. This increased gap means that many Australian’s are finding it harder to own a home. To address this there are more apartments being built in our major cities than ever before, with most apartments having smaller floor areas than stand-alone houses. As Australians look for homes they can afford, architects are designing new forms of housing that can meet the needs of a growing population with complex financial burdens.  In this episode of Hearing Architecture, we’ve asked architects from around Australia how architects can play an active role in addressing housing affordability.

This episode of Hearing Architecture featured the following guests: Rob McGauran, Shaneen Fantin, Belinda Allwood, Jo Rees, Rod Simpson, Kylee Schoonens, Professor Philip Thalis, Joe Agius, Lee Hillam, Peter Stutchbury, Timothy Moore, Jane Caught, Andrew Maynard, Yvette Breytenbach, and Jefa Greenaway. The interviews in this episode were produced around Australia by EmAGN committee members: Jamileh Jahangiri, Daniel Hall, Kirsty Volz, Kali Marnane, Chris Morley, Sam McQueeney, Reece Currey, Brad Wetherall, Jess Beaver, Bede Taylor, Rebecca Webster, and Daniel Moore.

Housing affordability

Most Australians live in cities. The 2016 census showed that 71% of Australian’s live in major cities, and only 10% of Australians live in towns with less than 10,000 people. With this gap on the rise, it’s important that the small communities around the country are not forgotten while large cities continue to grow. In order for small towns to function they need access to important infrastructure like hospitals, schools, and markets, but they also need buildings that help foster a community’s social development. These gathering places have helped small towns around Australia develop some of the best examples of social resilience in the whole country, and architects who are based in these regional areas designed the majority of those buildings. In this episode of Hearing Architecture, we’ve asked architects from around Australia how architects have contributed to Australia’s regional communities and how we can nurture regional areas as we plan for our country’s future. This episode of Hearing Architecture features the following guests: Shaneen Fantin, Belinda Allwood, Jessica Mountain, Emily Van Eyk, Yvette Breytenbach, Sue Dugdale, Kylee Schoonens, Jo Rees, Peter Stutchbury, Dik Jarman, Rob McGauran, Jefa Greenaway, Joe Agius, Professor Philip Thalis, and Lee Hillam.

The future is regional

The beginning of an architecture project usually starts with some form of communication. It can be a conversation over a coffee, through an email from a client listing a dozen items that they “must have”, or standing in an old building with a bunch of people describing what they can see in their head while they gesticulate in the direction of where new windows and walls could be. After this, everyone wants to agree on what was just discussed so there’s as little difference between what was implied and what was inferred. To do this, an architect will usually start making drawings. This process is so successful that architects are now synonymous with drawings. Even the idea of building something without a drawing sounds like a paradox. This makes architects experts in explaining what the end result of a project will look and feel like, which helps minimise the chance of clients turning up to a building site and being surprised by what’s been built. It may be second nature to architects, but even when a project has literally hundreds of drawings, it can still be difficult to understand what’s going to end up on-site. In this episode of Hearing Architecture we’ve asked architects from around Australia why drawings are so important to the profession of architecture and how drawings can help communicate to clients and the wider community. This episode of Hearing Architecture featured the following guests: Peter Stutchbury, Shaneen Fantin, Belinda Allwood, Joe Agius, Amelia Borg, Nicholas Braun, Timothy Moore, Jo Rees, Damian Madigan, Andrew Maynard, Lee Hillam, Steven Postmas, Jessica Mountain, Emily Van Eyk, Jane Wetherall, Professor Philip Thalis, Dik Jarman, Sue Dugdale, and Jefa Greenaway.

Sketch and Sniff

Australians love to renovate their homes. You can tell we do because there are so many DIY TV programs that show us how to give it a go. But when you watch programs like Grand Designs, The Block, or House Rules there’s rarely an architect to be seen. With many programs like this out there a lot of people might assume that design, renovation, and building can all be easily undertaken by anyone at home as long as they have the time and money. Now, this is true to some extent, and a lot of people have a great deal of fun renovating their homes. But it might be hard to know how far you can go yourself before things start to get dangerous or it becomes more costly than if some professionals had taken it on. In this episode of Hearing Architecture we’ve asked architects from around Australia how architects are portrayed to the public and how clients can be involved in the design process. This episode of Hearing Architecture featured the following guests: Damian Madigan, Rod Simpson, Sue Dugdale, Lee Hillam, Peter Stutchberry, Justin Carrier, Steven Postmus, Nicholas Braun, Jane Caught, Timothy Moore, Shaneen Fantin, Belinda Allwood, Joe Agius, Rob McGauran, Jo Rees, Dik Jarman, Hugh Mcguire, and Andrew Maynard.

The reality of architecture in reality TV

In 2017 the Australian Institute of Architects awarded Melbourne based Architect Peter Elliot with the Gold Medal, which is the Institutes highest honour. As part of his gold medal tour, he told younger architects “to let the theory come later”. Some Architects were taken aback by this because they’d spent so much time studying how to embed design theory into their work. In this episode of Hearing Architecture, we’ve asked architects from around Australia to tell us what they think about the use of theory in architecture. This episode of Hearing Architecture featured the following guests: Damian Madigan, Rod Simpson, Sue Dugdale, Kylee Schoonens, Peter Stutchberry, Justin Carrier, Steven Postmus, Nicholas Braun, Jane Caught, Timothy Moore, Shaneen Fantin, Belinda Allwood, Professor Philip Thalis, Joe Agius,Yvette Breytenbach, Jefa Greenaway, Rob McGauran, Jo Rees, Dik Jarman, Andrew Maynard and Peter Elliott.

Let the theory come later

When you start to look for it, architecture is everywhere and it’s the stage on which we play out our lives. It doesn’t matter whether we’re working in it, living in it, or resting in it, it’s part of our lives and memories. In this episode of Hearing Architecture we’ve asked architects from around Australia to tell us what they think architecture’s role is in culture: is it informed by culture or does it inform culture? This episode of Hearing Architecture features the following guests: Damian Madigan, Rod Simpson, Sue Dugdale, Kylee Schoonens, Peter Stutchberry, Justin Carrier, Steven Postmus, Nicholas Braun, Jane Caught, Timothy Moore, Shaneen Fantin, Belinda Allwood, Professor Philip Thalis, Joe Agius, Rob McGauran, Jefa Greenaway, Dik Jarman, and Andrew Maynard.
