The Architecture Symposium: All eyes on Brisbane
Designing a legacy for South-East Queensland
Morgan Jenkins is a director of Nielsen Jenkins, an architecture practice based out of Brisbane with active projects around the country.
In the early stages of his practice, Morgan explored the intersection between the built form, landscape, community and the city by being co-creator and creative director of the End of the Line Festival, a free community festival in Woolloongabba, Brisbane, which hosted 4,000–10,000 people annually between 2014–2019.
Morgan travelled through London, Barcelona and Prague as part of the Dulux Study Tour in 2017 and was moved by the way some large practices had brought other design disciplines under their own studio roof. Since then, Nielsen Jenkins has employed landscape designers and plays an active role in the design, documentation and installation of landscape elements within their projects to achieve an integrated design outcome that gives equal priority to both the built and unbuilt components of site.
