Stories Indesign: Live audience podcast with John McAslan
Published

The British architect joined Timothy Alouani-Roby for a live recording with an audience of enthusiasts in Sydney.
Anthony Burke will join us for a similar live recording at 6pm on Tuesday 12th August at The Beacham, Darlinghurst, Sydney!
The founder of award-winning practice, John McAslan + Partners, was in Australia again to mark the opening of Sydney Metro. We were fortunate enough not only to nab John for an interview, but in fact a live audience one – recorded with a gathering of dozens of architecture enthusiasts at The Beacham Hotel in Darlinghurst. John shared anecdotes from his career, thoughts on Sydney Metro, and stories from projects around the world including places like Haiti.
