Discontent among employees in architecture firms is at an all-time high, demonstrated in the push for architectural unionization in the US in response to the lack of overall well-being in the profession. This discontent can be largely attributed to the inherently exploitative nature of the regular top-down architectural firm structures, fostering a disconnect between the direction firms take and the people working to make it possible. In these, leadership often takes on projects beyond the firm’s financial capacity, with the expectation of underpaid staff taking on the brunt of the work through unpaid overtime. In these structures, employees are not to be a voice guiding the firm but to be profited off of. So, what are ways to address this disconnect? Is it time to restructure firms to give architects more agency? What are ways to create non-hierarchical firm structures?
This project involves the renovation of the existing clubhouse on the site as well as its enlargement to serve as a multipurpose hall for both the city of Coudoux and the tennis club.
The requirements for the project and its genesis were the transformation of a 1920s apartment, which belongs to a building signed by the architect Francisco Prieto Moreno, into a short-term residence for a couple whose permanent house is between London and Singapore. They also needed the apartment to be an exhibition space for their art collection.

Set in the dense urban fabric of Melbourne’s Cremorne, on the traditional lands of the Wurundjeri and Bunurong people of the Kulin Nation, Encore Cremorne by Fieldwork sensitively fuses a new, 7-story glazed office tower with the site’s existing red brick warehouse — an early 20th century Nuttelex factory and former recording studio, which has been carefully retained, restored, and built around.

Design Context. In recent years, the rapid development of Weiyang District has led to the intensification of the contradiction between the surge in education demand and land scarcity. The comprehensive building construction project of Weiyang Road Primary School is a design task born in this context. The project site is extremely narrow and irregular, with existing teaching buildings and surrounding high-rise residential buildings, making the conditions very complex.
