Join Helen Lochhead (Dean of the Faculty of Built Environment at UNSW and President of the Australian Institute of Architects) and Jill Garner (Victorian State Government Architect) as we discuss how architecture has evolved in response to past global pandemics, from the tuberculosis ‘inspired’ sanitoriums of the 1930’s to the present day...and Jill's 'Grand Tour' of Europe visiting buildings designed by modernist architects determined to solve the health issues of their day through a single building.We also take a look at architecture’s role in the ‘civilizing’ the infrastructure ’boom’ of present day Australian cities and how in the truly integrated city architects can no longer ‘go it alone’ and architecture cannot provide all the answers we need without first collaborating.What of the healthy future city: well both Jill and Helen agree, it has much more to do with the linear open spaces and connections than the single buildings and places themselves.GET IN TOUCH:Email the show at talkingcities@aecom.com.
