The Housing Question is a collaborative video work by Helen Grace and Narelle Jubelin that takes its title from Friedrich Engels’ seminal 1872 texts addressing the severe housing shortages in his native Germany. After nearly 150 years this question remains central to contemporary social and political debates. 

To coincide with 2023 Geelong Design Week please join us for a dynamic panel conversation exploring the value of good design and design thinking, the growing demand for affordable housing and contemporary ideas about house and home.

Panel:

Jeremy McLeod, Founder and Design Director at Breathe Architecture and founder of Nightingale Housing

Richard Tucker, Professor at School of Architecture and Built Environment at Deakin University and co-leader of the research network HOME

Narelle Jubelin, exhibiting artist (online Spain)
