From the editor


The last few months have been an emotional rollercoaster for many of us Australians. I for one have experienced the gamut from helpless to furious while our government sat on the sidelines and watched our country burn as fires incinerated lives, homes and a devastating portion of our native flora and fauna. In the wake of this, the revelations of how grossly mismanaged our water resources have been, the growing number of fracking wells that scar our countryside, and the immoral extinguishing of native title to make way for even more coal mines have left me feeling heartbroken and hopeless.

That said, in the weeks and months since the beginning of this widespread tragedy, I’ve witnessed an incredible outpouring of offers of assistance and financial aid from our architecture and design community, and an overwhelming commitment to enact change in the way we live, work and practise design — a manifesto for the future, if you will. This enormous, unified pledge has made me proud and has given me reason to hope.

This issue of Design Anthology is dedicated to all of the firefighters who volunteered and fought bravely to save the lives and property of complete strangers, to everyone who has donated in any way (no donation is too small) and to everyone involved in efforts to rescue our endangered or now functionally extinct species. The future of our country depends upon you, and I don’t have the words to express my immense gratitude.
