Whether they are likely to be hot button campaign issues or not, there are countless areas where architectural practice is frequently buffeted by shifts in government policy, or where architects have special insights to offer on policy in wider areas. The NSW Chapter has asked the major parties on their views across several of these. Eleven architects also offer their own opinions on topics from design competitions and construction failures to WestConnex and the lockout laws. NSW Election 2019 Australian Institute of Architects – key issues survey Compiled by Kate Concannon The Institute developed its 2019 NSW election platform in consultation with member representatives and key allied professional bodies. This was presented to all major parties for reply. Our stated positions and recommendations are published here along with the responses we received. 4 Architecture Bulletin 1 Ensuring design quality in densification To retain its status as a global city, Sydney – the engine room for Australia’s economy – must compete among the world’s best on measures of liveability, productivity and sustainability. With a growing population, the continued economic and social health of NSW requires intensification – not only expansion through greenfield development. With increasing housing density, the capacity of amenity and design quality is integral to ‘doing density well’. The Institute considers the following are requisite in current conditions to ensure intensification both occurs and occurs successfully: • Establish a talent pool of City Architects at director level made available to all LGAs via GANSW and the Greater Sydney Commission • Support implementation of the requirements set by SEPP 65, the apartment design guidelines and the medium density design guidelines within local government • Mandate design review panels (DRP) in LGAs for projects meeting critical thresholds, with 40% of NSW councils to have an endorsed DRP by March 2020 • Undertake a public education campaign for the medium density housing code and design guide specifically including, more generally, the benefits of density done well. What will your party do to facilitate increasing housing density and see that it is done well – with good infrastructure and services, good design and community buy-in?

Good design is critical to delivering affordable and diverse housing that improves liveablility, fosters healthier communities, produces broad economic benefits and reduces operational and maintenance costs. Actions that government can take include: incentivising build-to-rent housing and reforming planning and other policies that currently limit diversity (of building types and of financing/ownership models). Without reform people are forced into less than appropriate housing, are subject to housing stress, and cannot properly provide a living environ- ment for their families. To ensure consumers know they are getting what they were promised, the Institute strongly recommends mandating architects ‘close the loop’ on completion of medium density projects, with certification from the original architect being required as part of defect inspections, final certification and release of funds. What initiatives will you take to deliver affordable and diverse housing in established areas that are close to employment and transport etc? How will you ensure good design in this housing?

Australian Romanesque: An Overview . 25 4. New South Wales and the Australian Capital Territory . 52 5. Victoria . 92 6. Queensland . 122 7. Western Australia . 138 8. South Australia . 156 9. Tasmania . 170 Chapter 1: Introduction In Australia there are four Catholic cathedrals designed in the Romanesque style (Canberra, Newcastle, Port Pirie and Geraldton) and one Anglican cathedral (Parramatta). These buildings are significant in their local communities, but the numbers of people who visit them each year are minuscule when compared with the numbers visiting Australia's most famous Romanesque building, the large Sydney retail complex known as the Queen Victoria Building. God and Mammon, and the Romanesque serves them both. Do those who come to pray in the cathedrals, and those who come to shop in the galleries of the QVB, take much notice of the architecture? Probably not, and yet the Romanesque is a style of considerable character, with a history stretching back to Antiquity. It was never extensively used in Australia, but there are nonetheless hundreds of buildings in the Romanesque style still standing in Australia's towns and cities. Perhaps it is time to start looking more closely at these buildings? They will not disappoint. The heyday of the Australian Romanesque occurred in the fifty years between 1890 and 1940, and it was largely a brick-based style. As it happens, those years also marked the zenith of craft brickwork in Australia, because it was only in the late nineteenth century that Australia began to produce high-quality, durable bricks in a wide range of colours.

  • Arup: Building the Water Cube
    9-410-054 REV: JUNE 3, 2010 ROBERT G. ECCLES AMY C. EDMONDSON DILYANA KARADZHOVA Arup: Building the Water Cube The Water Cube, as we know it today, is a result of architects and engineers working side by side. Without this collaboration, the Bubble Box would not have been possible. ―Mark Butler, former Associate Director and Senior Design Architect at PTW Architects Landing at Heathrow Airport on June 7, 2009, Arup Principal and Senior Structural Engineer Tristram Carfrae pondered the upcoming dinner for which he had flown over 12,000 miles. Accompanied by four other members of Arup’s Sydney office, Carfrae was in London to attend the Royal Academy of Engineering Awards Dinner where the winner of the 40th annual MacRobert Award was going to be announced. First presented in 1969, the Award was given in recognition of successful development of innovative ideas in engineering and was considered one of the most prestigious awards in the field. The Beijing National Aquatics Center, widely known as the Water Cube, had been one of the four finalists for the award. Engineering firm Arup had designed the Water Cube in partnership with the architecture firm PTW Architects, based in Sydney, and China Construction Design Institute (CCDI). An aquatics center that looked like a box of bubbles, the Water Cube had already won a number of prestigious awards (see Exhibit 1). Its monumental presence in modern Beijing was due to the way in which it reflected Chinese traditions while using natural resources efficiently. Its design goals included environmental, social, and economic sustainability. The structure set new landmarks in the fields of engineering and architecture and challenged conventional thinking that higher quality required larger investments and longer time to design and build.

  • The Architectural Practice of Gerard Wight and William Lucas from 1885 to 1894
    ABPL90382 Minor Thesis Jennifer Fowler Student ID: 1031421 22 June 2020 Boom Mannerism: The Architectural Practice of Gerard Wight and William Lucas from 1885 to 1894 Submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Urban and Cultural Heritage, Melbourne School of Design, University of Melbourne Frontispiece: Herbert Percival Bennett Photograph of Collins Street looking east towards Elizabeth Street, c.1894, glass lantern slide, Gosbel Collection, State Library of Victoria. Salway, Wight and Lucas’ Mercantile Bank of 1888 with dome at centre above tram. URL: http://handle.slv.vic.gov.au/10381/54894. Abstract To date there has been no thorough research into the architectural practice of Wight and Lucas with only a few of their buildings referred to with brevity in histories and articles dealing with late nineteenth-century Melbourne architecture. The Boom era firm of Wight and Lucas from 1885 to 1894 will therefore be investigated in order to expand their catalogue of works based upon primary research and field work. Their designs will be analysed in the context of the historiography of the Boom Style outlined in various secondary sources. The practice designed numerous branches for the Melbourne Savings Bank in the metropolitan area and collaborated with other Melbourne architects when designing a couple of large commercial premises in the City of Melbourne. These Mannerist inspired classical buildings fit the general secondary descriptions of what has been termed the Boom Style of the 1880s and early 1890s. However, Wight and Lucas’ commercial work will be assessed in terms of its style, potential overseas influences and be compared to similar contemporary Melbourne architecture to firstly reveal their design methods and secondly, to attempt to give some clarity to the overall definition of Melbourne’s Boom era architecture and the firm’ place within this period.

Despite its nickname, the building is not an actual cube, but a cuboid (a rectangular box). Ground was broken on December 24, 2003, and the Center was completed and handed over for use on January 28, 2008.[2] Swimmers at the Water Cube broke 25 world records during the 2008 Olympics.[3] After the Olympics, the building underwent a 200 million Yuan revamp to turn the half of its interior into a water park.[4] The building officially re-opened on August 8, 2010.[5] 8 Architecture The National Aquatics Center at night In July 2003, the Water Cube design was chosen from 10 proposals in an international architectural competition for the aquatic center project.[6] The Water Cube was specially designed and built by a consortium made up of PTW Architects (an Australian architecture firm)[7], Arup international engineering group, CSCEC (China State Construction Engineering Corporation), and CCDI (China Construction Design International) of Shanghai.[8] The Water Cube's design was initiated by a team effort: the Chinese partners felt a square was more symbolic to Chinese culture and its relationship to the Bird's Nest stadium, while the Sydney based partners came up with the idea of covering the 'cube' with bubbles, symbolising water.

    ARCHAEOLOGICAL INVESTIGATION CSR SITE, PYRMONT ( JACKSONS LANDING ) Volume 1: Description, Analysis & Interpretation for Lend Lease Development December 2000 CASEY & LOWE ASSOCIATES Archaeology & Heritage __________________________________________________________ 420 Marrickville Road, Marrickville NSW 2204 • Tel: (02) 9568 5375 Fax: (02) 9572 8409 • Mobile: (0419) 683 152 • E-mail: [email protected] Report Summary REPORT SUMMARY BACKGROUND During October to December 1996 Casey & Lowe Associates undertook the archaeological excavation and testing of areas within the then CSR site (Figs 1.1, 1.2). This site was acquired by Lend Lease to develop into residential accommodation and is now called Jackson’s Landing. The potential archaeological remains of the whole of the CSR site were addressed in an archaeological assessment written by Casey & Lowe Associates in August 1996, ‘Archaeological Assessment CSR Site, Pyrmont’, for Howard Tanner & Associates on behalf of Civil & Civic. This report identified the potential survival of archaeological remains in a number of areas throughout the CSR site. Those sections where the remains were considered to have the greatest potential for survival and were accessible were tested. Three areas were found to have considerable remains and were excavated. Two other areas were found to have limited archaeological remains and were also excavated. Area A contained the remains of four houses, Houses 15 to 21 New Street, Pyrmont (Plans 1, 2, Photo 1). Area B contained the remains of three houses, Houses 67 and 69 Bowman Street and 2 New Street, Pyrmont (Plans 5, 6, Photo 2). Area C contained the remains of four houses, Houses 1 to 7 McCredie Street, a footpath and roadway, Pyrmont (Plans 9-12, Photo 3).
