To wrap up the guest lecture series this semester, we were lucky to have Sunshine Place Manager, Simon McCuskey from Brimbank City Council, address the Studio Atelier this week.

Simon’s informal discussion with the students was the perfect culmination of lectures from a variety of sources in regards to Sunshine. Simon’s work in community engagement and liaising with stakeholders was of particular interest to the students, aligning with the importance placed on community engagement by VEIL.

The rest of week eight’s studio session was spent on individual feedback sessions with the students. All are grappling with the complexity of the projects, but are beginning to make considerable headway with their design development and refinement. Students were encouraged to use simple modelling techniques as a way of exploring design and configuration possibilities.
