Lacaton & Vassal: Living In The City

When

Tuesdays to Fridays, 10am to 4pm Saturdays, 12pm to 5pm Friday 11 August to Saturday 23 September

This exhibition encapsulates three years of teaching and research focussed on the Sirius Building and the Waterloo Housing Estate by architects Anne Lacaton and Jean-Philippe Vassal, inaugural Rothwell co-chairs of the University of Sydney School of Architecture, Design, and Planning.

Lacaton & Vassal: Living in the City showcases the architects’ projects, documentaries and research, illuminating their architectural method which is based on close attention, transformation rather than demolition, and provision of high-quality living spaces.

Curated by Anne Lacaton, Jean-Philippe Vassal, Hannes Frykholm and Catherine Lassen, the exhibition foregrounds the Pritzker Prize-winning French architects’ conviction that urbanism begins inside each apartment, with quality housing for everyone.
