Designing apartments: living large in small spaces

Each year at Perth Design Week we have a conversation on apartments – and the topic doesn't get tired. Against the backdrop of the State Government's recent initiatives to super charge density along rail lines, this year we continue the discussion looking at how we can live well in more compact spaces.

Presented by Perth Design Week, supported by Ligne Roset Perth
