Today, consultation closes on Australia’s new National Cultural Policy.

Australia is a sporting nation – and that’s by design. Policy settings for culture need to mirror our national commitment to sport, embedding the arts into community life from childhood.

Currently, the National Cultural Policy’s discussion of children is limited to in-school activities and engagement through digital platforms and television. We need to go further.

The benefits of arts, culture and creativity are far-reaching, delivering social and economic benefit to individuals, communities and the country. Participation in the arts strengthens belonging, identity, education, wellbeing, social cohesion, regional liveability and Australia’s relationship with the world.

Studies show that engaging children builds deep brand loyalty. This happens with sports – and even in banking, where children are given piggy banks to transition them into lifelong clients.

For children to have the opportunity to engage in arts, culture and creativity, implementation requires adequate funding, and coordination across all jurisdictions and all levels of government. Just as the Australian Government invests heavily in road infrastructure for public safety, cultural investment is essential for public wellbeing.

Countless studies haves shown that engaging with arts and culture provides profound physical and mental health benefits. This is critically important with the current epidemic of youth mental health challenges. Cultural events and community art programs bring people together, creating robust social support networks that prevent isolation which can lead to mental health challenges.

How we can “stretch the day” in Perth, evolving into a city that is vibrant, connected and active around the clock? That was one of the topics we explored at PDW 2026.

Award-winning journalist and architecture and design advocate Claire Tyrrell guided an engaging with panellists James Sutherland (Arcade Agency), Jim Tsagalis (Lease Equity), Kyle Jeavons (Human-Urban), Natalie Busch (Hassell), Samantha Stewart (URBIS) and Sean Henriques (Edith Cowan University).

The discussion considered the many layers that shape a truly liveable urban environment — from major civic initiatives and education precincts to the everyday experience of retail, dining and well-designed public spaces. Panellists also reflected on Perth’s existing strengths — its climate, lifestyle, natural landscapes and evolving hospitality scene — and the need for greater coordination and critical mass to fully realise the city’s potential.

Thank you to @humanurban and @urbis_au for sponsoring the event enabling this important conversation. PDW is about design at all scales, all working to a common goal to improve how we all live and work here in Western Australia. Because design is everywhere and for everyone.

How we can “stretch the day” in Perth, evolving into a city that is vibrant, connected and active around the clock? That was one of the topics we explored at PDW 2026.

Award-winning journalist and architecture and design advocate Claire Tyrrell guided an engaging with panellists James Sutherland (Arcade Agency), Jim Tsagalis (Lease Equity), Kyle Jeavons (Human-Urban), Natalie Busch (Hassell), Samantha Stewart (URBIS) and Sean Henriques (Edith Cowan University).

The discussion considered the many layers that shape a truly liveable urban environment — from major civic initiatives and education precincts to the everyday experience of retail, dining and well-designed public spaces. Panellists also reflected on Perth’s existing strengths — its climate, lifestyle, natural landscapes and evolving hospitality scene — and the need for greater coordination and critical mass to fully realise the city’s potential.

Thank you to @humanurban and @urbis_au for sponsoring the event enabling this important conversation. PDW is about design at all scales, all working to a common goal to improve how we all live and work here in Western Australia. Because design is everywhere and for everyone.

Snapshots from the opening of our @perthdesignweek Local HQ 🪩

This year Perth Design Week took over the secret backrooms of The Liberty Theatre, with an interactive exhibition by local interiors manufacturers and suppliers. It was a coalition of organisations that represent the best of WA’s interior design industry.

Open to design enthusiasts, industry professionals, and anyone curious, the Local HQ Opening event was a celebration of design, and a chance to meet the exhibitors and discover the stories behind WA’s interiors industry.

Thank you to everyone who made our first HQ possible!

@perthdesignweek 2026 concluded last week with our final conversation titled “Designing with Purpose.” This session highlighted individuals who create with intention, emphasizing that design should serve a deeper purpose beyond aesthetics. Design is a process that involves making choices that positively impact the world, focusing on sustainability, social justice, and cultural significance.

Key takeaways from our panelists included:

- Durability over cheap fixes: A preference for steel subframes and reparable, modular products to enhance longevity and reduce waste. (Chris Cooke)
- Social design delivers high value-for-money: Community-led, low-cost, locally sourced solutions yield meaningful outcomes. (Joni Sercombe)
- Climate-responsive housing matters: Simple principles like north-facing orientation and designing according to local sun and wind patterns significantly improve liveability and cost-effectiveness. (Matt Delroy-Carr)
- Market levers shifting: Banks, reporting, and emerging home energy ratings are beginning to reward well-performing designs, potentially disrupting real estate choices. (Karla Fox-Reynolds)
- Design for people, not aesthetics only: ‘Queer design’ framing focuses on creating spaces that support lived experiences rather than adhering to stereotypical aesthetics. (Matthew McGivern)

Thank you to our panellists and our moderator, champion for Perth, Paula Rogers, who expertly guiding this multidisciplinary panel.

It was standing room only for our “Living Large in Small Spaces” conversation at Perth Design Week, with a passionate conversation on apartment design.

Some of the themes we explored included:
- a shift in the Australian Dream, from people seeing apartment living as inferior to a four by two with a big backyard, to changing perceptions on what constitutes amenity
- the benefits and amenity of station precincts, and the need for a broad range of apartment typologies
- how modular can play a role in apartment construction, not just in student accommodation and co-living, but also build to sell apartments
- and the advantages of an architecture background in property development (Kellie and Liam both architects now working in development)

Thank you: to Minister John Carey MLA for taking the time to join us at PDW; to all of our panellists Megan Cordin, Kellie McGivern, Liam Wallis, Michael Fotis, Sean Morrison and Jessica Berry; and to everyone who attended.

It was standing room only for our “Living Large in Small Spaces” conversation at Perth Design Week, with a passionate conversation on apartment design.

Some of the themes we explored included:
- a shift in the Australian Dream, from people seeing apartment living as inferior to a four by two with a big backyard, to changing perceptions on what constitutes amenity
- the benefits and amenity of station precincts, and the need for a broad range of apartment typologies
- how modular can play a role in apartment construction, not just in student accommodation and co-living, but also build to sell apartments
- and the advantages of an architecture background in property development (Kellie and Liam both architects now working in development)
