ADJUSTMENT presenter

Ross Brewin will explore careful observation as a design and research methodology in his teaching and practice work. Through close attention to place, context and the particularities of each project, observation becomes a tool for informing thoughtful adjustments to unfamiliar existing conditions and creating architecture that is responsive, appropriate and grounded in its surroundings.

ROSS BEWIN
Gilby + Brewin Architecture

Ross Brewin is a director of Gilby + Brewin Architecture, a practice that undertakes culturally, socially and environmentally responsible projects across a range of urban scales and settings. The practice’s design approach is guided by an attitude that all projects, including new buildings are kinds of adjustments to existing built environments and also a deep interest in the way that new architecture can be placed in productive dialogue with the things, times, and lives that have come before.

Ross is also an academic at the Monash University Department of Architecture where he undertakes live projects that engage students with real-world projects from design conceptualisation through to built realisation, undertakings that are often situated in regional towns and places.
