Grid, Corridor & Field is a collaboration between Master of Architecture students from the University of Melbourne's School of Design and the City of Melbourne’s Design and Urban Environment studio.
The Collaboration
Grid, Corridor & Field is a response to the urban planning and design challenges facing Melbourne. Over the last three months, 45 Master of Architecture students form the Melbourne School of Design have developed an engaging array of visionary propositions to shed light on the critical questions confronting the life and design of our city. The idea of ‘Transforming Melbourne’ has been gaining media coverage of late and engages the public in helping create a vision for our city. The visions of each studio are just some that attempt to address climate change, urban sprawl adaptability and the ills that go with inequality and vulnerability to change.
