For Our Country is the inaugural National Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander War Memorial, commissioned by the Australian War Memorial (AWM) in Canberra and located on Ngunnawal and Ngambri Country. The work provides a space from which to contemplate and commemorate Indigenous connection to country and the sacrifice that Indigenous serving men and woman have made in the protection of their country.

Some of our favourites we thought we should mention:

THE PRODIGY
David Flack & Mark Robinson, Flack Studio

Melbourne-based multi-disciplinary design studio Flack Studio works across sectors, but residential interior architecture has always been a particular passion and forms the bulk of the studio’s portfolio. Projects are approached with respect for the past, an eye to the future, and above all, a conversation with the community of the project – the clients as well as the builders, joiners, tradespeople and suppliers.

THE WINNER
THE BUILDING
Burwood Brickworks
by NH Architecture with Russell and George

Burwood Brickworks offers relief to suburban living. It exists as an overt rejection of big-box retail, embodied both in its philosophy and its verdant form. Through occupying a uniquely curated space between convenience consumerism and innovative sustainability, Burwood Brickworks defies both the architectural and cultural expectations of the retail arena.
