Upcoming events
Architectural Association London Lecture
This is a presentation that invites you to connect with the visceral qualities of Home at this global architectural event.
The Creative Directors of the Australia Pavilion will present their vision of HOME for the 2025 Venice Architecture Biennale. Led by Dr. Michael Mossman, Emily McDaniel, and Jack Gillmer-Lilley, alongside a Creative Sphere of First Nations architects and practitioners, the exhibition experience explores the question of “what does Home mean to you” through interactions with memory, sensation, relationships, and future.
Blending the overall Biennale theme of Intelligens, Natural, Artificial, Collective, the Creative Sphere prioritises Australian Indigenous concepts of dialogue, yarning and preservation as mediators of cultures and community practices.
Through the lens of Country, this is the first time an all First Nations design team demonstrates the cultural, philosophical perspectives that has enabled the world's oldest living cultures to survive and thrive at the Venice Architecture Biennale Australia Pavilion. The exhibition will transform the Australia Pavilion into a Home—a place for cultural exchange. Where visitors engage with the narratives of Country and their own concepts of Home.

The Art of Architecture: First Nations Design
Today, more than ever, First Nations cultural perspectives, community insights and architectural and design practices are shaping the spaces we live in, from cities to homes.
This discussion delves into these themes and broadens the conversation to a global scale as we hear from the newly appointed Creative Directors for the Australian Pavilion at the 2025 Venice Biennale — La Biennale di Venezia 2025.
The First Nations design team, comprising Dr. Michael Mossman and Jack Gillmer, will present their selected entry, HOME — a highly sensory pavilion design that celebrates Australia’s natural environment and Indigenous knowledge.
Debuting in Venice in May 2025, HOME will explore Aboriginal knowledge and sustainable design, providing an immersive experience that fosters a deep connection to culture and Country.
