The SA Chapter of the Australian Institute of Architects is pleased to congratulate Stephen Hooper, Graduate of Architecture at woodhead as the winner of the 2013 Jack McConnell Travelling Fellowship.

The focus of Stephen’s research will be to investigate digital fabrication in architecture and design, and the maker world.

His winning fellowship titled ‘a [fabricate]d craft’ has particular relevance to South Australia with the State Government’s current interest in developing greater innovation in the manufacturing sector. Supported by a group of mentors, next year he will travel to a number of conferences or exhibitions in Zurich, Perth, Kyoto, Venice and Montpellier.

On behalf of all the members, we congratulate Stephen and look forward to learning about the outcomes of his Fellowship at the end next year. You can follow Stephen’s travels on Twitter @mec1
