‘Redefining QVM and the edge of the city’ is an intensive design studio initiated by the Robin Boyd Foundation in collaboration with MPavilion, the City of Melbourne and the Melbourne School of Design, University of Melbourne. The five-day program takes place at Walsh Street—the house Robin Boyd designed for his family in 1958—and focuses on the mixed-use built and public open space development mediating the Queen Victoria Market with the edge of the Melbourne CBD.

Students will be required to develop and propose innovative and sophisticated urban-scale design solutions for this important and complex northern edge of the CBD, led by master designers Steve Calhoun (Founding Director, Tract) and Tony Styant-Browne (Director, Workshop Architecture), and studio leader Richard Stampton.
