Architect and City of Sydney Councillor, Philip Thalis, will share his vision for the St Phillips Heritage Conservation Area

Friend in Hand Hotel

Philip is a founding principal of Hill Thalis Architecture + Urban Projects, established in 1992. He has more than 25 years local and international experience across a broad spectrum of architecture and urban projects and has won more than 90 awards, commendations and competitions for architecture, urban design, planning, public domain and heritage projects. The St Phillips estate belonged to the Anglican church until 1974. It was primarily developed in the 1870s, though the church built some new dwellings in the inter-war period. In the 1970s the Federal government renewed the historic houses and in the 1980s the NSW Government’s inner city housing team inserted low rise public housing into the estate. Two of these sites are currently being redeveloped for 8 storey apartment buildings. Future high level planning documents include the St Phillips estate in the Harbour CBD which suggests that more redevelopment is envisaged.Councillor Thalis believes that conservation areas need to agile and be capable of adapting to change. In this talk he will speak about the design principles which should be applied to development in the St Phillip’s estate taking account of its overall character followed by a walk around the estate.PLEASE NOTE: NSW Government COVID-safe regulations are in place - so you will need to provide proof of double vaccination or medical exemption and by booking you agree to follow the standard protocols- wearing a mask inside and social distancing.Date and time: Sunday 28 November 10am -12pmLocation: Friend in Hand Hotel, 58 Cowper Street, Glebe.
