Kerstin is the director of Melbourne based architecture, landscape and urban design practice Kerstin Thompson Architects.

To mark her appointment as a Teaching Fellow at the School of Architecture, Kerstin will present her body of work, and with reference to her experiences as an Adjunct Professor at RMIT, discuss relationships between the production and teaching of architecture.
