Fast Forward 2026
Semester 2
Date: Thursday 23 July 2026, 6:30pm
Venue: Lecture Theatre 342, Conference Centre Building 423
Jemima Retallack and Mitchell Thompson, , (Sydney)
Jemima Retallack and Mitchel Thompson’s Sydney-based practice, formed in 2016, is likely best known in New Zealand for their 2017 Garden Wall “anti-pavilion” at the National Gallery of Victoria, designed with Other Architects. The main body of their work is residential, adaptive reuse, and small-scale commercial projects that celebrate an “Australian regionalism”. Their portfolio includes thoughtful and modest projects such as Tree House, Steel House/Stone House, House for a Garden, and Erskineville Creature, each demonstrating a commitment to inventive design within tight urban conditions. Rarely working with a blank page, this talk explores the existing acting as brief and finding opportunities in constraint.
The lecture is supported by the NZIA Waikato & Bay of Plenty Branch.
10 CPD points available.
