Global Creative Graduate Showcase 2024 is the fifth edition of this initiative and was open to all art and design students graduating in the year 2023-24 (undergraduate, graduate & postgraduate) in any related creative discipline, located anywhere in the world.
Over 5000 students uploaded their end-of-year projects, making it the biggest online showcase of graduating creatives worldwide.
We’re thrilled to share that Carr Architectural Graduate Rebecca Mallaby has been unveiled as a finalist in the Product / Architecture / Interiors category.
Read an excerpt of Rebecca’s submission:
As the housing crisis both globally and locally in Melbourne, Australia worsens, opportunity depletes to enter into the market. This proposal serves as an alternative, changing how we live and work, and a unique affordable housing model without compromise of social amenity. The Aileen Avenue Precinct, located in suburban Melbourne, presents an innovative approach to affordable multi-residential housing.
Designed for lone or paired occupants, the precinct features diverse modes of sharing: from sharing a spare room, kitchen, or all communal facilities. Each type expresses a variance in privacy, block configuration and circulation methods. This flexibility caters to various needs, fostering community, adaptability and sense of place. The project’s CLT and modular design supports replication and customization for different contexts and demographics, addressing the housing crisis with an adaptable and sustainable model.
Voting closes on Friday 11 October with winners announced Monday 21 October. You can submit your votes here.
Congratulations and good luck Rebecca!
