Yaara Plaves

Yaara’s is not-the-usual path to architecture, in Australia at least, but like us all, her background, her experiences and her travels, have shaped her world view and led her to this point. Yaara is an ardent advocate for sustainable and regenerative design as well as for teaching and learning and is a proponent for the adage, “give what you can and take what you need”. Her journey follows a series of life changing decisions and is full of quiet wisdoms and I’m delighted that she has shared part of it with us. Image from Hames Sharley website; accessed 21.3.2024

Nicolette DiLernia

A familiar figure in the Adelaide architecture sphere, Nicolette balances a richly woven experience professionally and personally. In this conversation we touch on many things; among them the pace of life now compared with a perhaps gentler, perhaps more polite recent past, the change from practice to administration, the value of advocacy and the fundamental nature of architecture and the role of architects. We dip into the education of architects and the state of society and the value of not taking things for granted among other lofty and important topics. Nicolette is thoughtful in her observations and candid with her thoughts, making for a very enjoyable and enlightening conversation.

Josephine Evans

On first meeting Jo you will be struck by her warmth and openness and by her ability to articulate her thoughts clearly and always respectfully. In this conversation, we touch on generational wisdoms, passions, the power of positivity and the pleasure you can take from architecture if you dive right in. There is some good advice about making the most of the journey, about looking outward and at the big picture, and about community, collaboration and experimentation, all the while adapting, evolving and thriving. In all, a gift of insights and reflections.

Deborah Aukland

At the time of the interview, Deb was Senior advisor with the Department for Education. She has since returned to Brown Falconer as Principal and this conversation allows us a glimpse of the dedication and passion which has gained her the widespread respect of the profession, clients and colleagues, and of the kindness, humour and optimism she radiates whenever you are lucky enough to be in the same space. This conversation takes us back to Deb’s early days. I hope you enjoy her story as much as I did!

Sarah Paddick

TotalSpace was founded in 1993. 30 years on, Sarah merged her practice with Grieve Gillett Architects. This interview was done prior to the merge and our conversation ranges an expansive field. It’s an inspiring story of how architecture can work alongside teaching and learning, philosophy, philanthropy, and advocacy and of how embracing opportunities can unleash a fulfilling career inside and outside of architecture. Sarah is a thoughtful and articulate architect and I very much enjoyed learning about her life and work thus far.

Christie Bailey

Christie is She-constructed’s inaugural interviewee. It’s a great conversation, thanks entirely to Christie’s ability to articulate her thinking so beautifully and her willingness to share her story and her philosophies. Listen to hear her thoughts on the importance of listening and for creating space for inspiration. She’ll explain her thinking on shared ownership of projects, on carving out time for yourself, on doing things a little bit differently and on understanding the contribution that an architect can have to the fabric of the city.

Coming Soon! Trailer

She-constructed is a podcast dedicated to shining a light on women in and around architecture, their stories, thoughts, philosophies and contributions to the spaces we inhabit, admire and enjoy. Each episode will be a conversation with one of these amazing women. I am inspired by their creativity, their ingenuity, their attention to detail, their commitment and their passion. We will learn what inspires them, what drives them, what challenges them, and what of their story has led them to where they are now. I’m excited to share these conversations with you and invite you to tune in to wherever to listen to your podcasts and enjoy these stories with me.
