EmAGN WA unites Students, Grads, and Architects fostering a network to support Emerging Architects. b. c. d. e. f. g. h.
Western Australian chapter of the Australian Institute of Architects' Emerging Architects + Graduates Network (EmAGN). Our mission:
To represent the interests of graduates and emerging architects on a local and national level by providing a representative front on key issues. Focusing on the transition from student to experienced architect, we aim to create a design community for graduates and emerging architects for their mutual support and to foster a collaborative culture that celebrates architecture. Objectives:
We represent the interests of graduates and emerging architects by:
a. Advocating for emerging architects and graduates on Chapter, Divisional and National Councils so that key needs, interests and concerns of this demographic may be considered and addressed. Nurturing productive local level committees and facilitating cross pollination of ideas, resources, education and energy nationally. Bridging the gap between the Student Organised Network for Architecture (SONA) and established professional Institute members. Encouraging Institute membership, engendering within graduates and emerging architects a sense of belonging to the Institute, and providing a platform for graduates to ‘merge’ into the profession with local and national support. Initiating and developing inspiring and relevant opportunities for all emerging architects and graduates. Developing new and building upon existing relationships with other young professional groups in Australia such as Young Engineers Australia (YEA) and Young Planners (YP) both on a local and national level for the benefit the broader professional demographic. Establishing and strengthening relationships with emerging architect and graduate groups within International architectural institutes such as the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA), American Institute of Architects (AIA) & New Zealand Institute of Architects (NZIA) for the purpose of cultural exchange, idea sharing and opportunity generation. Advocating for a strong future for architects and architecture in Australia.

EOI NOW OPEN - CALLING ALL SPEAKERS
We are seeking speakers from architecture and related disciplines, including interior design, landscape architecture and urban design.
EOI Brief link in bio!!
On: Futures explores how architecture is evolving, what may be gained or lost through technological change, and how design continues to shift between the analogue, the digital and the unknown.
The theme explored through three interconnected areas:
THE FUTURE OF DESIGN: AI AND ARCHITECTURE
How might AI reshape creativity, decision-making and the architect’s role?
THE SOUL OF ARCHITECTURE: THE HAND, THE SKETCH AND THE STORY
How can architecture retain authorship and human connection in a digital world?
LOOKING BACK TO LOOK FORWARD: ARCHITECTURE AND TECHNOLOGICAL CHANGE
What can past technological shifts teach us about the transformation happening today?
These are starting points only. Speakers are encouraged to interpret On: Futures through their own work and perspective.
We invite aspiring and established architects, interior designers, landscape architects, and urban designers to submit their expressions of interest. Please include a short description of your work or proposed response to the theme (one paragraph each) via email by Wednesday, September 30th, 2026, to: [email protected]
