  • Love the show but not the sound!

    Always great content but please adjust the sound quality of host. I listen in the car and have to change volume constantly. Very hard to hear.

  • Great podcast but sound quality terrible

    This is consistently an interesting & useful

    Podcast. I just wish the sound quality was not all over the place. Listening on earbuds I’m frequently adjusting volume up or down from speaker to speaker to theme music. If the sound quality was levelled out it would be a much better listen.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 290: Daniel Jarosch, CEO of the new Sydney Fish Market on the importance of designing for place for commercial buildings
Q: How did you balance the practical needs of a high-performing, zero-downtime logistics operation with creating an inviting public space?
We structured the space with a lower ground wholesale and logistics flow that feeds the retail and dining experiences above, ensuring seamless movement of goods while providing sweeping vistas and public access to the foreshore, dining, and education spaces.
Episode 290: Daniel Jarosch, CEO of the new Sydney Fish Market on the importance of designing for place for commercial buildings
Q: From your perspective as CEO, what was the guiding vision behind the project and how did that translate into architecture and design?
The guiding vision was to create something that is more than a market—an iconic destination that remains accessible to the public, celebrates the working aspects of the market, and connects deeply with the harbour while being adaptable for future needs and technologies.
Episode 287: Gabrielle Pavicic, GBCA's emerging leader in sustainable design on reshaping how the built environment approaches sustainability
Q: What gives you the most optimism about the future of sustainable design in Australia?
Seeing widespread passion and willingness to change among professionals, the ability to unite various disciplines toward shared goals, and the anticipation of practical tools like GreenStuff that enable better decision-making.
Episode 287: Gabrielle Pavicic, GBCA's emerging leader in sustainable design on reshaping how the built environment approaches sustainability
Q: What was the biggest challenge in translating circular economy principles into a practical, scalable rating system like Green Star Interiors?
The challenge is balancing ambitious circularity with what is realistically achievable on projects, avoiding over-technical perfection, and focusing on simple starting points that can be implemented widely.
Episode 287: Gabrielle Pavicic, GBCA's emerging leader in sustainable design on reshaping how the built environment approaches sustainability
Q: Okay, so you began your career in architecture and interior design, which is a good mix. How has that hands-on design background shaped the way you approach sustainability at a systems and policy level?
The hands-on experience provides a real understanding of on-site challenges, informs how to scale improvements beyond individual projects, and helps bridge the gap between design decisions and systemic change across the industry.
