Assignment Description

Over the semester our assessment requires us to re-imagine the Australian Capital Territory and produce a vision for the A.C.T. in the 21st century. Developing a strategy for the city and the national parliament which it houses, identifying the infrastructure relevant to a 21st century city and investigating appropriate architectural types for a city which represents Australia. From this basis we will ultimately produce an architectural proposal which seeks to address these issues and provide 'A Place for People'.
