This is Suburbia

2020 represents a time of rapid change and uncertainty in our city and nation’s history. This is a timely opportunity to lead conversations with the community about the spaces and places we want, need and deserve to survive and thrive, as part of the This Is Suburbia thread.

DESIGN Canberra will celebrate the suburban identity of Canberra, to see the beauty and the icons, and share why we love where we live… in a city of design.

We will also reimagine suburbia: debunking myths, learning from iconic mid-century suburban experiments and contemporary developments, and exploring innovative case studies.

 

DESIGN Canberra acknowledges the Ngunnawal people as the traditional custodians of the ACT and surrounding areas. We honour and respect their ongoing cultural and spiritual connections to this country and the contribution they make to the life of this city and this region. We aim to respect cultural heritage, customs and beliefs of all Indigenous people.
