We will be discussing topics such as the false binary between NIMBYism and deregulated high-rise development; the existing levels of density in Sydney’s inner suburbs; the framing of objections to the plans as elitist; and what density done well in the city might look like.

Rooted in an exposed hinterland landscape, Ronnoco Farm by Polly Harbison Design is a study in restraint, material honesty and the art of rural living.

A series of stone walls anchors the residence to its surroundings, while dark-stained spotted gum, textured render and considered moments of colour bring warmth and depth to its minimalist forms. The result is an expression of quiet luxury that embraces the practicalities of everyday life, where beauty and resilience exist in equal measure.

Recognised as The Living Space Winner at the INDE.Awards 2026, supported by category partner Gaggenau, Ronnoco Farm demonstrates how thoughtful architecture can be both refined and deeply connected to place.

Where heritage architecture meets contemporary cultural exchange.

At the University of Melbourne’s Parkville campus, Wood Marsh has reimagined the Potter Museum of Art, thoughtfully integrating a heritage-listed 1930s building with new spaces for exhibition, education and community engagement.

From its striking mirrored entrance to the sensitive restoration of historic fabric, the project demonstrates how adaptive reuse can create new opportunities for learning while respecting the architectural past.

Recognised as a joint winner of The Learning Space at the INDE.Awards 2026, supported by category partner Autex Acoustics, the Potter Museum of Art offers a compelling example of how cultural institutions can evolve to meet contemporary needs.

On Barkandji Country in Wilcannia, the Baaka Cultural and Art Centre demonstrates how architecture can support cultural continuity, connection and learning.

Designed by Kaunitz Yeung Architecture in collaboration with the Barkandji community, the project transforms the fire-damaged remains of a historic store into a contemporary cultural space. Retained stone walls, locally sourced rammed earth and a series of shaded gathering spaces create an environment where cultural knowledge, language and creative practices can be shared across generations.

A joint winner of The Learning Space at the INDE.Awards 2026, partnered by Autex Acoustics, the project offers a thoughtful example of architecture responding to both place and community.

Where creativity, community and nature converge, Soul Studio by Palinda Kannangara Architects reimagines the possibilities of contemporary social architecture.

Conceived as an extension of an architect’s studio, the project transforms a private collection of music and books into a dynamic cultural space for exhibitions, performances and creative exchange. Through interconnected volumes, considered materiality and a sensitive response to its natural surroundings, Soul Studio strikes a balance between collective experience and quiet contemplation.

Recognised as The Social Space Winner at the INDE.Awards 2026, partnered by Maxton Fox, the project demonstrates how architecture can foster meaningful connections between people, place and culture.

Perched along a Mount Hotham ridgeline, Alpine Lodge by Kim Kneipp Studio + Troppo Architects offers a considered approach to alpine living, where warmth, refuge and connection to the landscape shape every space.

Organised across four levels, the residence moves from tactile arrival spaces and an onsen-inspired wellness retreat to intimate sleeping quarters and panoramic living above. Through restrained materiality, carefully calibrated light and thoughtful spatial sequencing, the design responds to the unique rituals and rhythms of mountain life.

Recognised as The Interior Space Winner at the INDE.Awards 2026, partnered by Tongue & Groove, Alpine Lodge demonstrates the power of interior architecture to create a meaningful sense of place.
