Hearth 2020

 

This student-championed showcase of graduate achievement celebrates significant milestones in a life in architecture. The year 2020 was challenging in many ways. The work in this engaging exhibition reminds us that our socially and intellectually nourishing community of practice is distinguished by its resilience and capacity for innovation. The synthesis of architectural ideas and research-informed responses to the difficult, and increasingly urgent, issues that are shaping our world will certainly distinguish the architects of our global future. This moment of celebration anticipates the contribution of UQ graduates to the trajectory of the discipline and practice of architecture.

Our heartfelt congratulations to the 2020 graduating cohorts.

Why Hearth?

The theme of Hearth reflects upon the distributed nature of 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic. It celebrates that which connects us – a shared curiosity of the built environment focused through the conduit of the School. The discipline of architecture is well known for its rigorous pedagogical pursuit. Integral to this is the unique peer-to-peer interaction and critique that students experience through the studio environment. The disruption in 2020 saw both students and educators adapt to new conditions while maintaining collegiate collaboration. The quality of the work in this exhibition attests to the resilience of this community of graduates – their ability to adapt to a changing world and to develop solutions to the challenges it presents.
