Designing Value: Where Beauty meets the Bottom Line

How do we strike the right balance between ambitious architecture and commercial reality?

This Perth Design Week sundowner by the Property Council of Australia brings together leading voices from both sides of the design-development conversation to explore the tensions, trade-offs and opportunities in delivering projects that are both financially viable and architecturally compelling.

From using great design to command a premium in the market, to navigating regulatory frameworks that sometimes hinder innovation, this event will cut through the theory and get into the real-world decisions shaping our built environment. Whether you’re in planning, design, development or policy, this is a conversation about the future of Perth worth joining.
