The Architecture Symposium: Is slow the new fast?
Embracing the value of time for a more sustainable future
Louise Wright (PhD) is an architect and director of Baracco and Wright Architects (est. 2004) in Melbourne. She is a practice professor at Monash School of Architecture and Design where she is co-director of Monash Urban Lab. She is interested in a role for architecture that can extend its relationship with the natural world towards one that supports all life and explores this through built form and practice-based research.
Louise was appointed in the role of creative director by the Australian Institute of Architects with Mauro Baracco in collaboration with Linda Tegg, of the Australian Pavilion at the 16th International Venice Architecture Biennale 2018, with the theme Repair, which sought to explore the role of architecture in the repair of the natural environment.
