Affordability and its Implications for Housing Supply |
Faculty of Architecture |
Geoff Meen; Professor of Applied Economics at the University of Reading (UK) | Seminar: Housing affordability is being recognised as a major issue in local and regional areas across Australia, with many people unable to purchase or rent homes in the areas they choose. Local communities in most areas of NSW are experiencing shortages of suitable accommodation, brought about by a serious deterioration in the stock of affordable housing. Professor Meen is an economist who specialises in analyses of housing markets from the national to the regional and local levels. In 2004/05, he was commissioned by the Office of the Deputy Prime Minister (ODPM, UK) to lead a team of researchers to develop a methodology for determining regional housing targets, with a focus on affordability. Before joining The University of Reading, Professor Meen was an Economic Adviser at HM Treasury and the Department of the Environment. He had a spell as a Research Fellow at the University of Melbourne in the early eighties. | |

| New Professor of Practice: Chris Johnson: On behalf of Professor Beryl Hesketh, PVC (Sciences & Technology), we would like to announce the three-year appointment of Chris Johnson to a fractional (1 day per week in the first instance) position as Professor of Practice in the Faculty of Architecture. It is envisaged that Professor Johnson's appointment will help strengthen the research base of the Faculty through facilitating community research engagement activities, helping establish a research-based consulting role for the Faculty, providing research project work for students that can be fed back into the community and working with the Faculty in adapting research activities to meet the needs of practice in Sydney, nationally and internationally. As well as this, Professor Johnson will promote the University and its activities, on all levels, interact collaboratively with other universities in enhancing the long-term sustainability of the city, develop conferences and workshops in collaboration with other Faculty staff, and work towards the production of scholarly books and publications that address the interface between research, scholarship and practice. Chris Johnson has served as Adjunct Professor of Architecture in the Faculty. Please join us in welcoming Professor Johnson to this new role in the Faculty and the College of Sciences & Technology. |

| Student's round-table talks centre on design By Catherine Naylor Plans to build an institution aimed at improving government decision-making have been given a helping hand by university students who have come up with ideas for its design. The Centre for Dialogue Project was conceived in 2001 when director Peter Hancock visited a similar centre in Vancouver, Canada, to take part in an international summit on mining. âI saw how much better they were at making progress than we were. I walked in and I was gobsmacked.â Once built, the centre will provide a venue for business, government and community groups to meet and discuss difficult and complex issues of the day in a neutral, non-threatening, âround-tableâ environment.â It will help in good governance, providing a place where contentious issues can be discussed, things like the Defence white paper, or the Bougainville crisis. âGroups of indigenous people can meet in a nonthreatening environment with other stakeholders. When the prime minister meets indigenous people in Parliament House, it is a threatening place for them. âThe intent is for the centre to be evocative of the round table and corroborees, where stakeholders can identify each others values and find common ground to build on, avoiding confrontation. Some issues will be resolved without the need for legislation. It will be like working in a modern cathedral, respectful and safe.â The project committee hopes to begin building the centre in late 2007, if it is successful in securing on time the estimated $20 million in funding that is needed. Eighty University of Sydney architecture students spent the last semester working on a brief to design the centre. They were asked to take into account the centreâs setting within Canberraâs Parliamentary Triangle, on Commonwealth Avenue between the National Library and Parliament House. Fifteen of the best student designs are on exhibition at the ANUâs National Europe Centre until Friday. Adele Rowland, 23, was one of the students whose work was selected for the exhibition. Having grown up in Melba, she said her local knowledge had helped her in her design. âI was a lot more familiar with the site than the others,â she said, âAt least 100 hours of work went into the designs. âIt was good to have a project that had a real brief, to work with actual clients. It is almost unheard of to have this exposure as a fourth-year student.â Her classmate, Luke Gerzina, 24, of Sydney, said he had also enjoyed the reality of the project. âWe didnât have in mind any competition, we were designing for our tutors really. But our client actually chose us, thatâs better than any mark, and to be in our own exhibition, thatâs awesome. Canberra Times Tuesday 6 Dec 2005 |

Chris' invention, an acoustically insulated wall ventilator, had its genesis in his PhD research supervised by Fergus Fricke in the former Department of Architectural and Design Science. Chris' research is an example of that rarity - University research that is actually of some use and benefit to the community. |

SECOND YEAR EXHIBITION- Second Year Studio, LEVEL 3 Free drinks, music and food |
Faculty Hearth, Wilkinson Building
|
The importance of architecture in social life lies in its very materiality. By giving shape and form to the material world, architecture creates a visual representation of values, defines the structure of human flows, and provides the physical site where everyday life occurs. Architecture does these through the body. It is the body that perceives, moves and eats. The body itself is a place in space. The individual is located in a body that is socially, culturally and historically specific. In what ways can the building create links between otherwise unrelated bodies? Can the building be created as a spatial network which will not only assist to create new connections, but will also reinforce the appeal of urban public life? |
Exhibition: The second-year architectural design studio explores these possibilities through the project of ÅA Spatial Network for Bodies: Camperdown Residential Cooking School and Caféâ. Students have not only investigated into the conceptual and spatial interpretations of program, but have also undertaken a tectonic model to explore their ideas about construction, materials, spatial qualities, details and finishes.

Urban and Regional Planning and Policy PhD Graduate is awarded the Justice Medal for his work in the advancement of tennant's rights In the early 1970s, there was no Rental Bond Board, Residential Tenancies Act and no Fair Trading Tribunal. In short, tenants had no rights. "I had one come in and he had a card: 'Big Jim - we move anyone'," recalled Dr Mowbray. "The landlord had sent round Big Jim to lock out the tenant. They could do that." Over the past 30 years, the co-ordinator of the Western Sydney Tenants Service has stood in front of bulldozers, had his life threatened as he fought for those with nowhere else to turn. Now Dr Mowbray has been recognised with the Justice Medal, the top honour at the NSW Law and Justice Foundation's 2004 Justice Awards. The latest edition of the Tenants' Right Manual refers to him as a "treasure" and his efforts have been crucial to many advances in tenants' rights. It began at Redfern Legal Centre, where he did his last placement as a social work student. Soon he had established the Tenants' Right Project with Shelter NSW followed by the Tenants Union in 1976. The tactics were brazen, with landlords even being shamed in front of the neighbours and TV crews. |
