Extremities: South, East, North, West of Architectural History

The 41st Society of Architectural Historians Australia and New Zealand (SAHANZ) Annual Conference

Date: 3rd - 5th December 2025

Host: School of Architecture and Design, University of Tasmania, Launceston

The 41st SAHANZ Annual Conference theme of Extremities encourages challenges to architectural history from a multiplicity of positions, critiquing the evidence underlying prevailing narratives and re-investigating architectural history from all points of the perspectival compass.

The conference’s siting in lutruwita/Tasmania encourages proposals that relate to conceptions of the global South/geographical South, questions regarding political and intellectual colonisation, the implications of being regional, and agendas of regenerative development across the Asia-Pacific/Indian Ocean region.
