New Architects Melbourne (NAM)

‘New Architects Melbourne’ (NAM), is a volunteer-based initiative which seeks to foster and encourage up and coming architectural and design studios. Since 2011, NAM has provided a platform for professionals to present their story, vision and sensibilities in an informal environment in front of peers and enthusiasts alike. On one hand it provides exposure to a vibrant aspect of the local industry as well as building connections and networks between a diverse range of disciplines such as architects, graphic designers, industrial designers, landscape architects, urban designers, engineers, photographers, architectural publishers and journalists.

Wominjeka (Welcome). We acknowledge the Yaluk-ut Weelam as the traditional custodians of the land on which we meet. Yaluk-ut Weelam means ‘people of the river camp’ and is connected with the coastal land at the head of Port Phillip Bay, extending from the Werribee River to Mordialloc. The Yaluk-ut Weelam are part of the Boon Wurrung, one of the five major language groups of the greater Kulin Nation. We pay our respects to the land, their ancestors and their elders—past, present and to the future.
