The BUILD conversation series is a new series of talks that explore new perspectives from design, architecture, engineering, science and The Arts, to reflect on how these disciplines can address the urgent issues of our times. Each of the talks in this series respond to one of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

In the first episode of the series, Build program curator, Joni Taylor, chairs a conversation with two visionary thought leaders, Jefa Greenaway and Liane Rossler, using their exploration of design practices to reflect on our relationship to Life on Land. - Global Goal number 15.

Jefa Greenaway is an architect, interior designer, academic, director of Greenaway Architects and co-founder | Chair of Indigenous Architecture and Design Victoria, Australia’s only Indigenous design association. He is of Wailwan | Kamilaroi and German heritage. 

Liane Rossler is a designer, artist and curator championing design that balances perspectives of nature, sustainability, creativity and community. She co-founded Sydney’s internationally renowned Dinosaur Designs, and in recent years founded Superlocalstudio– ‘a space that enables the creation of thoughtful practises’

This talk is supported by the Ove Arup foundation and was recorded live at the Sydney Opera House - Centre for Creativity in May 2022.
