Do the spaces you spend your life in – such as your home and your workplace – make you lonely?
Are they designed with your connection needs as a human foremost in mind, or as an afterthought?
It’s a good thing that Shannon Battisson – the National President of the Australian Institute of Architects – is here to help us answer these questions.
Join us for a coffee and a soul-nourishing conversation about architecture and human connection.
