Designing with Nature is an afternoon of short talks exploring how we can shape our cities, homes, and gardens in harmony with the natural world. Grounded in the idea that good design works with nature, not against it, local experts will discuss approaches to nature-led design that enhance and protect urban biodiversity as well as benefiting our health and wellbeing.

Featuring Dr Thami Croeser (RMIT), Dr Georgina de Beaujeu (Geelong Gardens for Wildlife), and Dr Mary-Jane Walker (The School of Lost Arts), this event will highlight practical and creative ways to design with, and for, nature.

Join us to discover how thoughtful design can help build a more sustainable future.

Tea, coffee, and biscuits will be provided after the talks.
