As architects and designers we are in a privileged position to be designing spaces and buildings that we will often never occupy. It then becomes so important that we ask the people we are designing for “What do you need? What do you want?”. Join Architectural Graduate Abigail Lee, as she interviews individuals not in the Architectural profession and interogates their unique needs and wants from the city. Dear Designer aims to highlight the importance of collaboration in the design professions, and gives a platform to those who rarely have the opportunity to be heard.

Charlotte, on Student Accommodation & Transitioning to Life in Brisbane.

This episode's guest is Charlotte. Charlotte grew up in Townsville, North Queensland. She moved to Brisbane last year for university and is currently living in South Bank in an apartment building.

Abby and Charlotte talk about her experience of moving from a small town to a comparitively big city. They talk about lonliness, what it’s like living in student accommodation, and all about navigating a new place without a car or a local to help out.

As is tradition in this podcast, at the end Charlotte will read out her short letter to designers, outlining what she would love to see more of in this city to support her settling in and feeling more comfortable in her home.
