Calling all code breakers! Decoding Density is a global competition to reimagine the future of six-storey plus apartments. Challenge code restrictions and dive into a world where design helps housing affordability and climate resilience.

Some projects take ironmongery design and specification to the next level and Grantley Hall is just such a project. Em-B Solutions #architecturalironmongery #winnerofwinners #doorhardware #colaboration

Taking cues from how WA is able to scale up workers from our north-west resources or infrastructure projects, here is an accelerator idea to deliver longer-term, permanent living options into Western Australia faster, cheaper, and more sustainably. By providing short-term housing solutions (say 10-15 years) as construction and key worker villages across the Perth metropolitan area, this will then increase the supply of long-term, permanent, and affordable housing, as it will allow for more trades to flow into the industry and therefore more permanent homes to be built. The villages could be provided on under-utilised crown land, or on land in areas such as around new Metronet train stations that currently don’t meet private development hurdle targets to develop now - allowing the land to be put to good use straight away, then sold off and developed by industry in the future when returns improve. This idea could work anywhere else across the country, as long migration opportunities for international key construction workers are also supported by the Federal Government. As a consequence, more workers/construction labor force in the WA market means more competitive pricing of projects, faster delivery of housing, and keeping construction costs down. Furthermore, this is a step closer to being able to move from the 16,000 dwellings currently being delivered annually to the required 25,000 to meet our Federal housing targets. Living in these homes is a short-term accommodation option that will accelerate the delivery of suitable permanent housing options for workers and their families to live in, as more homes are delivered into the WA market and our rental vacancy increases. Let's take advantage of under-utilized land and increase the supply of long-term, affordable housing options. Thank you to Kim Macdonald and The West Australian for the chat.

Such a valuable resource for designing with healthier materials.

At PPA, we determine the age of historic buildings so you don’t have to. “We have worked with the Residential and Character Team at PPA on a number of occasions to assist with determining the age of a building in the Traditional Building Character Overlay. The meticulous research and analysis of historical information from a range of sources has been instrumental in providing accurate information in relation to the age of the building, and subsequent additions, which has assisted in determining the extent of partial demolition which may be supported or the merit of pursing full demolition.” Tim Black - @black_developments #propertyprojectsaustralia #propertyprofessionals #propertyconsultant #townplanning #propertydevelopments #queenslandproperty #architects #brisbanearchitects

Whether a you are a fan or not, there is currently a lot of heat and media content around Jeremy Clarkson in the planning, architecture, and development world. What is being branded as ‘Clarkson’s Clause’ brings along changes in legislation associated to permitted development rights around the conversion of Agricultural Buildings into either Residential property/properties, or Commercial use and ventures. To cut through the media spin and clickbait, these policies have been in place for a number of years in the form of Class Q for Residential conversion, and Class R for Commercial conversion. In the recent update, there are a number of key changes that have been incorporated. Partnered with a looming General Election, I imagine there will be plenty more coming our way in ‘draft’ shortly. However, whilst Clarkson’s Farm continues to be a top performer on our TV’s and the UK is made up of 90% rural areas, this is a key change for opportunity in the development and agricultural world.
