"The weaving of us" seeks to become a place to come together, to listen deeply, and to learn from what has always been here. The building is imagined not as a monument to learning on an institutional ground, but as a living framework for exchange. It is a place that celebrates differences as strength, and belonging as an ever-unfolding relationship. A starting point that acknowledges the lines of our past that continue to guide us as custodians of this moment in time, so that we may create new surfaces for new stories to meet.

We recognise and pay respect to the Elders and communities - past, present, and emerging - of the lands that the University of Sydney's campuses stand on. For thousands of years they have shared and exchanged knowledges across innumerable generations for the benefit of all.
