I want to Make Adelaide Great Again.

I am sick and tired of Adelaide being 10th in the Global Liveability Index.
I want to make Adelaide Number 1!

I believe if we truly want to fix the city then we need to embrace the role of the Architectural Fixer.

The Architect must become the Fixer, and as such must stringently adhere to the Fixers Handbook.  The prophecy which outlines the Fix Up City and the genesis to the three keys of the Fix Up Faith.

The Architect as The Fixer

The Collector as The Hoarder

And the Analyser as The Googler

Each Key is synonymous with the other, in that the Architect needs to google and hoard in order to become the fixer.

In true Fixer style we have used artificial intelligence to collect and rebuild the best parts of the best cities in the world.

The collection covers the number 1 destination from the top 9 cities in the world.

These collected models are not just carbon copies of the original, but rather an enhanced version, of a digital copy, of the real deal.

These new collections of built form blur the boundaries between the real and the imagined.

They are grotesquely poetic and they are made for Adelaide.

We will Make Adelaide Great Again.
