(Sub)Urban Dreamscapes/Nightmares: From Blandscapes to Brutopianscapes - Associate Professor Paul Maginn

from Raising the Bar Perth 2024 · host Raising the Bar

Perth is a (sub)urban city characterised by a high-density urban core and low-density housing in the middle and outer rings. But things are changing, and changing rapidly, especially in morphological terms. Perth is now characterised by a dynamic evolving mosaic of (sub)urban landscapes: ‘blandscapes’; ‘blendscapes’; ‘brutalscapes’; and, ‘brutopianscapes’. This raises questions as to whether we are living in a suburban dream or nightmare.
