inDETAIL with Domenic Alvaro, Woods Bagot – Adelaide

Brickworks is excited for the return of the inDETAIL Speaker Series.

Woods Bagot’s vision is People Architecture. Its services are diverse and cover design, research, data analytics, and consulting. Celebrating diversity across all cultures, free from a signature style, People Architecture is propelled by a shared sense of empathy, where the values of end users and the values of design are one and the same.

Operating from studios in 17 major cities around the world Woods Bagot designers place human experience at the centre of their design process to deliver engaging, future-oriented projects that respond to the way people actually use space, and which flexibly accommodate changes to come.

This event will be hosted by Stephen Varady, architect and collaborator, who shares Brickworks passion for architecture, design and innovation.

We look forward to welcoming you to Brickworks Design Studio Adelaide for a night of networking and insightful architecture shared with like-minded people over drinks and canapés.

Domenic Alvaro Global Design Leader, Woods Bagot

Domenic is an architect who is dedicated to agitating traditional typologies. Domenic’s expertise ranges from mixed use developments that redefine the way nature can be woven into a city, experiential large-scale transportation links, landmark commercial precincts, and residential and lifestyle that defines the way we will live tomorrow.

Described as “one of the industry’s most original thinkers” the Woods Bagot Director and Global Design Leader consistently draws from the unique context and scale of his projects. From concept to completion, Domenic ensures that a project’s narrative is seamlessly woven into the design, creating a coherent architectural language that balances clarity of organization with delight and the poetics of space.

Domenic’s notable projects include the international competition winning scheme for landmark workplace precinct 55 Pitt Street, the podium reinvigoration of Sydney’s MLC Centre, integrated leisure complex and National AIA Harry Seidler Award-winning Ivy, complex pedestrian link Wynyard Walk and mixed-use development Short Lane. Domenic’s very own Small House is also the recipient of the World’s Best House at the World Architecture Festival.
