The Emerging Designers Festival: Rediscovering Melbourne Through Adaptive Reuse
Description
For the second consecutive year, Gray Puksand's Emerging Designers Festival is providing Melbourne architecture and design students with the chance to showcase their work and vie for an internship at Gray Puksand’s Melbourne Studio. The students will explore the Open House Melbourne's theme: RE/DISCOVER your City through adaptive reuse.
What's On
Student designs will be showcased in an exhibition, and the top three finalists will have the opportunity to present at the Open House event. Following the presentation of shortlisted submissions, a panel will review the top designs and one winner will be announced. The winner will be offered an opportunity to join the Gray Puksand internship program during the next 2024/25 intake. Following the presentations, a tour will be conducted at 300 Flinders Street, previously occupied by Victoria University and now a vibrant mixed-use space that exemplifies the benefits of adaptive reuse for the city. Nibbles and drinks are provided.
