- **Event Description**: How migration, memory, and lived experience shape the meaning of home.About this EventArchitecture, Memory, and Migrant Domesticity brings together architects, designers, and thinkers to explore how migration shapes the way we inhabit, remember, and design domestic space.For many migrant families, the home becomes more than a shelter. It is a site of memory, adaptation, and negotiation between inherited cultural practices and the realities of a new place. Architecture in these contexts is often informal, layered, and deeply personal, shaped as much by lived experience as by formal design intent.This panel discussion examines how ideas of home, belonging, and identity are translated through space. Drawing on architectural practice, research, and lived experience, the conversation will consider how migrant domestic environments challenge dominant narratives of Australian architecture, and how memory, ritual, and everyday use inform the built frame.Hosted as part of Melbourne Design Week, Translating Place invites both practitioners and the wider public to reflect on architecture not just as an object, but as a vessel for cultural continuity, displacement, and reimagining home.The discussion moves between these perspectives, asking what it means to call a place home, how that meaning shifts over time, and how architecture can both hold and transform the stories of the people within it.The conversation will explore:How experiences of migration shape the way we understand home, and how those experiences surface in the spaces we design and inhabitWhat it means to belong to a place, and how architecture can reinforce or challenge that sense of belongingHow memory is held within domestic space, shifting across time, culture, and generationsThe tension between tradition and adaptation in contemporary architectural practiceWhether architecture reflects lived experience, or inevitably reshapes itHow space might be interpreted beyond form, through atmosphere, rhythm, and timeAgenda🕑: 01:30 PM - 02:00 PMCheck-in🕑: 02:00 PM - 03:00 PMPanel Discussion🕑: 03:00 PM - 03:30 PMNetworking Opportunities
