NT Architecture Awards
With the annual awards night drawing near, it is time to purchase your tickets, if you haven’t already! This year the awards will be held at Cornucopia Museum Café, Friday 12 June. 6.30pm pre-dinner drinks for 7.30pm dinner.
The annual gazetting of the people’s choice award is also now complete; this year attracting nearly 200 votes, from Yeperenye Shopping Centre in Alice, to Palmerston and Casuarina Square.
SONA Tour de Arch
Student members from Charles Darwin University will visit a number of local Darwin practices on Friday 29th May. Small groups of students will venture out into the world of real architectural practice, to get a taste of what it might be like to be a ‘real’ architect. Over an hour or so, and perchance a beverage, students will have the opportunity into a practice’s work, methodology, philosophy, and ethos. If you’re one of the practices – be kind!
