OFFICE

OFFICE is a multidisciplinary design and research practice based out of Melbourne.

As a registered charity OFFICE is legally bound to a constitution that controls the operation and output of the studio. This alternative mode of practice questions specifically architects and landscape architects current relationship to the built environment. How might we work within the limits of our profession to develop ethical projects that have social, cultural, and environmental integrity? Projects that are undertaken can be located between four overlapping themes: education, research, discourse & built work. While the work pursued ranges from furniture to publications to GIS city scale investigations. Due to the obligations of being a registered charity, all projects are legally bound to the object of being for the public good.

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.
