The Architecture Symposium: Brisbane returns on 9 June 2023 with a fresh line-up of speakers to explore how architecture celebrates and amplifies the Asia Pacific region’s rich collage of cultures.

Speakers include Walbanga and Wadi Wadi designer and film producer Alison Page; Japan-based architect Suzuko Yamada; landscape architect Goh Yu Han of Singaporean landscape architecture studio Salad Dressing; architect Emma Healy of Landings Studio; Women Build founder Loata Ho; MVRDV Asia Studio architect Kyo Suk Lee; Patcharada Inplang, co-founder of Thailand-based Sher Maker; artist and architect Raukura Turei of Monk Mackenzie in Tāmaki Mākaurau/Auckland; Sri Lankan-based architect Palinda Kannangara; and architect Fan Beilei of Shanghai-based Genarchitects.
The Architecture Symposium will be a key part of the annual Asia Pacific Architecture Festival, exploring its 2023 theme “Culture, sustainability and economy – Why design matters.”
The Architecture Symposium is a Design Speaks program organized by Architecture Media and supported by major partner Planned Cover and hotel partner The Inchcolm by Ovolo. For tickets, head to the Design Speaks website.
