Australia is governed by a logic that land is appropriable, alienable and tradable on property markets; the recent property boom has heightened this system of land ownership. Tristen Harwood, Andy Fergus and Sarah Lynn Rees reflect on urban development in Australia and its aesthetics of gentrification: does this render invisible conflicting claims of land ownership, and what is the role of the designer in this process?
Moderated by Genevieve Murray and Joel Sherwood-Spring, Future Acts is a series of conversations presented by Survival Guide and Future Method Studio that investigate the design of settlement, property and housing.
