Melbourne, July 27

Modern Melbourne is a series that documents the extraordinary practice of our most important architects and designers and looks at their lasting impact on Melbourne.

In this episode, Greg Burgess, a unique figure in Australian architecture, reflects on his community-focused approach to design and how he has used architecture to foster relationships with clients, communities and Country to create spaces full of meaning and spirit. In conversation with Dr Peter Raisbeck at the Eltham Library, Greg reveals how he has consistently championed this approach, producing work noted for its complex geometries, innovative materials and deep cultural insights.
